Hand-StandPOLSPOTTEN, known for their unique and playful products, and Sonos, Inc., famous for their incredible sound systems and designs, joined forces to create something new. Recently, Sonos launched one of their most requested products ever: the Sonos Ace Headphones.

Most of us store our headphones in a drawer or cabinet, but what if we displayed them like a piece of art? That’s where the Hand - Stand comes in, a perfect blend of interior/sound design.

During my internship at POLSPOTTEN, I was entrusted with managing the design process for this product. To bring the concept to life, I taught myself Blender, a 3D modelling program, and used it to design the Hand - Stand, ensuring it perfectly held the Sonos Ace Headphones.

Working alongside teams from both companies, we created something special. I learned so much from the collaboration and the amazing people I worked with.

Special thanks to Shiran Gort, IJze de Vries, Victor van Nieuwehuizen, Valenntin Caillac, Ori Cohen, Bart van de Schaaff to name only a few of the people who helped bring this product to life.
