🎧 2 international patents, 3 domestic patents
In the newly built rental house "Trolley and Silver Garden" in Ikuno-cho, Asago City,
With both classical and jazz music, it's as if you can "see the sounds."
It makes the most of the resonance of wood, delivering gentle, natural sounds to the accommodation space.
Wooden speakers create a "time of gentle sound"
Our lodging is equipped with special wooden speakers made by the same maker as the wooden speakers exhibited at the 2025 Osaka-Kansai Expo.
It doesn't just play sound; the wood itself resonates, creating a pleasant sound that envelops the entire space.
"Kion Sound" - an acoustic technology unique to wood
Our unique acoustic technology uses wood as the vibrating body to achieve a "soft, natural, and gentle sound" that metal speakers cannot produce.
In particular, there is less volume attenuation over distance compared to conventional speakers, so you can enjoy consistent, pleasant sound no matter where you are in the room.
It goes well with quiet music such as classical, jazz and ambient music.
Highly acclaimed at the Osaka Kansai Expo
This speaker was actually exhibited at the Osaka Kansai Expo, where it captivated many visitors as part of a futuristic design based on the theme of "wood x sound x architecture."
It has attracted attention from experts as an acoustic experience that makes the most of the benefits of natural materials.
The compatibility of wooden speakers with accommodation spaces
It is particularly well suited to wooden buildings and old houses, as the entire building becomes a "resonating sound field," spreading sound that blends into the silence.
At "The Trolley and the Silver Garden," these speakers further enhance the atmosphere of the space, allowing you to enjoy a special time that you cannot experience in your daily life.
Utilizing local materials and creating sustainable sounds
Wooden speakers are also attracting attention as a sustainable initiative that makes use of local wood.
The acoustics, which use natural materials, deliver beautiful sound while being environmentally friendly, making it a design suitable for the times to come.
How to use
Connecting is easy.
Simply connect your smartphone via Bluetooth to the speaker.
Please enjoy the gentle sounds of your favorite music and the sound of the wood.
