High tech meets craftmanshipForm sets the tonematerials matter

Turn your TV into a design classic

Elegance and flexibility in one TV wall mount

A unique mount

shaped by 40 years of experience

It all started 40 years ago, when my father wanted to listen to his favourite jazz music but couldn’t find a mount to support his speakers where he wanted them. That desire to find a better way to do things is still driving us. We are always looking for ways to make watching television, listening to music or relaxing more enjoyable.

Recently our journey brought us to a whole new level. It started when we challenged our young designers to come up with a whole new wall mount concept for premium TVs. They found inspiration in our rich design and engineering heritage. And what they came up with delighted everyone - Vogel’s new DesignMount. It is a turning point for wall mount design that brings a fresh new look to the market.

I hope that the DesignMount will appeal to design lovers who appreciate the finer things in life, and want to complement their cutting-edge TV with distinctive, finely crafted accessories. The DesignMount is pure design from back to front.

We hope you’ll love using the DesignMount as much as we loved creating it.

When our designers began working on the DesignMount, they were inspired by some of the great furniture designers. They used rounded elements, clean lines and authentic materials to create timeless designs. This same careful craftsmanship is found in Vogel’s new DesignMount.

Interior design is also heavily influencing manufacturers of consumer electronics. More attention is being paid to creating TVs and equipment that are technologically excellent and have a strong design language to complement interiors which have been thoughtfully decorated.

In today’s mass produced world, quality is more important than ever. We want products in our home that will enrich our lives. Things that are beautiful to look at and enjoyable to use.

Timeless products, you just need to keep it honest and simple

this does not apply to the specifications of the product itself. Our furniture has to live up to the highest standards, especially when it comes to comfort and construction. The same goes for the quality of the materials used. The leather and fabrics have to be top notch. Leolux products and our manufacturing process must all be sustainable.That is what people may and do expect when they buy Leolux furniture.

Vogel’s interviewed Leolux, a renowned Dutch furniture company whose name is synonymous with distinctive design. High in quality, comfort and durability. Like Vogel’s, Leolux creates with passion, combining traditional craftsmanship with the latest technology. We spoke with Hans Filippini, Marketing Manager Leolux and Jane Worthington, an established European designer who is also a Leolux design consultant.

Jane, you have had a successful career in product and interior design. Looking back at your designs over the years, which product do you feel was your most iconic design?’’My most iconic design was a design that was never even produced; it was even before my Leolux time. In 1992 I was invited to go to Milan to work with Alessandro Mendini in his studio on a project to determine the future of the television. For them I designed the first ever wall-mounted back lit television. It was great to work on a project with that kind of creative freedom.

How do you see consumer electronics being integrated with interior design in the future? What trends do you foresee in this area? I’m very against “integration’’ of technology in products. You know why? Technological advances move so fast that integrating technology in a long term sustainable product reduces the life of the “main’’ product. To give an example, screens in the

back of the headrests for the kids to watch DVDs in cars. Already an obsolete product!

Naturally, electronics are needed in the home and in the future they will offer the most extensive possibilities.The house will have its own memory (i cloud) as will the person who lives in it and I don’t need to tell you the possibilities of this.

Our living environment will become a superior intelligence and consumer electronics will no longer be about a home entertainment system. It will be about a world access system where you bring outside experiences into your own house!

At Vogel’s developing qualityproducts is in our DNA. It is also one of our most important assets. Hans, how important is quality to Leolux? Products that don’t live up to our quality standards simply do not exist in our collection. The quality of a design may be subject to personal taste, but

the presentation of our products: colorful, playful, and even some humor . The high comfort factor of Leolux furniture is also immediately recognizable. Some of our designs are what I would call iconic. “Pallone”, the balloon chair, humorous, playful. “Parabolica” and “Arabella” are really daring in their design, but again not all too serious. And then there is “Kikko”, a classic, now available in an art-edition, created by Dutch artist Jean-Paul Marsman.

To what extent is ease of use important for Leolux furniture design?Leolux puts great effort in this aspect. Ease of use in our case equals comfort. That is one of the key subjects when developing Leolux furniture: what’s the function of this design and how can we translate that into the best possible seating. We also create extra options, for example, the choice for softer cushions, feet at different heights or adjustable backrests, headrests or seats. Everything to create the best comfort possible.

With our new DesignMount our designers tried to develop a timeless product within the category. How important is it for Leolux that a design is timeless? And how do you achieve this? Leolux’s best products are timeless, and it’s actually not that difficult to do if you look at the DNA of a timeless product. You just need to keep it honest and simple.

Vogel’s tried to develop an iconic product. Leolux has been developing furniture for almost 80 years. Is there a specific signature for Leolux furniture or products that have an iconic design? Leolux has a very large collection of furniture and works with an army of freelance designers. For some, it may seem as if the collection lacks consistency or coherence. But that is absolutely not the case. The common factor is the craftsmanship Leolux puts into its design. The care that surrounds the products. Absolutely A level. Furthermore,

Jane, what will your living room look like in 2018? Wow, difficult. Rented furniture, Jane laughs. No, in 2018 I don’t expect any big changes, the economic crisis has thrown the anchor out on any big change. I hope though in 2028 that it will be an inspirational uplifting place that is a mix of tradition, culture, innovation, world influences and smart technology. I hope it’s dynamic and that it’s a place that inspires me, but most importantly I hope it’s a place that feels welcoming and happy and full of love for all those who visit me. In the end, all the ‘’things’’ in my house are just ‘’things’’. It’s the feelings we create for ourselves and others around us with these things that counts.

”A mount that turns

your TV into a design classic”

Electronics are playing a bigger role in our lives and our interior design

When we were given the challenge to create something completely new, I knew I wanted to make a signature product for Vogel’s. Something you would look at and think “Wow”.

I’ve always wanted to design products that would last forever. That’s why I love designing wall mounts. Just like other classics, Vogel’s DesignMount is designed to endure. It has a clean bold look with graceful lines that creates a unique setting for a TV. People will treasure this product. And that makes me feel really proud.

Daniël Flach Product Designer, Vogel’s

When we created this mount, we put a great bit of Vogel’s legacy in it. We included our Screen Protection System, which we invented a few years ago. It protects your TV from bumping into the wall. The amazing thing about this mount is how lightly it moves. Just a tiny push from your finger can turn it. We put a lot of effort into making that work absolutely flawlessly. We call it Smart Movement.

We took all the best things from our other successful products and combined this into one new concept that looks and feels more luxurious than anything else out there.

The perfect entertainment system What does the perfect entertainment system look like? Beautiful entertainment starts with Vogel’s DesignMount and continues with Vogel’s Cable Column, AV Multi Support or Universal Sound Bar Mount. This entire system goes together to create a unique focal point on the wall that looks great and works fantastic.

We designed it so it seems like your TV floats in the air with no cables in sight. They are neatly concealed and connected to a media player or speaker system at any height needed. The sturdy, tempered black glass of the AV Multi Support offers room for Blu-ray players, a gaming console or other equipment. You can stack several supports on the

Column to create the perfect media centre for your needs. They are the same width as the TV, because we felt that this would provide a balanced form when combined with the TV.

A Sound Bar extension can be neatly added to enhance your listening experience.

Designed and engineered in The NetherlandsWith all Vogel’s products, we’re developing the entire product in The Netherlands. By leveraging the innovative power of our designers, we’re able to build a product that radiates beauty in every detail. In other words, exactly as it was envisioned by our designers and engineers in Eindhoven.

The DesignMount is suited for screens from 40” – 65” (102 -165 cm), weighing a maximum of 30 kg.

21

The DesignMount (NEXT 7345) folds effortlessly against the wall, leaving a minimal amount of space between the mount and the wall. Its robust frame is designed to support TVs ranging from 40” to 65” (102 -165 cm), weighing up to 30 kg.

The 100 cm long Cable Column (NEXT 7840) repeats the brushed aluminium finish of the DesignMount. It neatly conceals up to 10 cables and can be mounted at the ideal viewing height for the TV.

The advantage of Vogel’s AV Multi Support (NEXT 7825) is its broad shelves. These give you a sturdy piece of furniture to hold your valuable equipment. Perfect for a Blu-ray player, gaming equipment and console, centre speaker, etc. It looks classy with its smoked black glass. You can use more than one support to stack up all your equipment.

We also created a Sound Bar solution for the DesignMount, which will complement the system. A support can be mounted on the cable column (SOUND 3400) or we offer a solution which can be added to the mount itself, so the sound can be directed to wherever you want in your room (SOUND 3450).
