In 1925, Peter Bang and Svend Olufsen laid the foundation for one of the most renowned brands in the world of audio and design.
Working from a small attic laboratory in Denmark, they created what would become B&O. Today – exactly 100 years later – the name Bang & Olufsen stands not just for hi-fi components, but for technologically innovative concepts that combine exceptional sound with intuitive operation and, above all, with a distinctive yet timeless design that reflects the style and lifestyle of its owner – in short: modern sound sculptures.
Through this seamless blend of form and function, Bang & Olufsen has consistently set new standards over the decades. The company’s products are not merely technical devices; they are design icons, many of which are now exhibited in museums of modern art and technology. From the legendary BeoGram turntable to the BeoLab speakers and the latest wireless systems, every B&O creation embodies the pursuit of harmony between aesthetics and acoustics – whether in the living room or as an OEM sound system in a car.
And this pursuit of excellence is no empty claim: through regular collaborations with renowned artists, the Danish manufacturer continues to prove its design and sound philosophy time and again.
Today, with a presence in more than 70 countries, Bang & Olufsen ranks among the most recognized names in consumer electronics and is seen as a pioneer of lifestyle-oriented home furnishings that, as it happens, also make exceptional music.
Here’s to another 100 years of timeless design icons that continue to make music at the highest level.
