7 Things Designed by Porsche That Aren't Cars
1. 911 Soundbar
Can't get enough of the 911 GT3's exhaust? Not to worry – Porsche converted the original rear silencer and twin exhaust to design a surround system subwoofer! This is the ultimate home accessory designed by Porsche. The subwoofer has Bluetooth capability, a Dolby digital decoder, and puts out 200 watts. Check out all the details of this awesome design right here.
2. E-Piano
Back in 2012, Porsche Design Studio was commissioned by Alpha Pianos to create the E-Piano, featuring 98 keys and surfaces made of ebony and an ivory-like material called Taran. As futuristic as it looks, the E-Piano is equipped with the same mechanics as a grand piano as well as Senor Technology.
3. Baby Stroller
This baby stroller, dubbed the Porsche Design P’4911, is both luxurious and efficient. Not only is it made with quality materials you'd find in a Porsche, like leather, carbon fiber, and aluminum, but it's also practical in that it can fold and fit perfectly into the trunk of your Porsche. It's never too early to kick start your kid's love for Porsche.
4. Pool Table
In 2014, 247 Billiards commissioned the Porsche Design Studio to create this minimal yet innovative pool table made of stainless steel. Its sleek lines and puristic style make it one sophisticated pool table. It's evident that 247 Billiards is happy they took a "cue" from Porsche!
5. Speedboat
Branded as a "supercar for the water," the Casanova 28" delivers exactly what you'd expect from a speedboat designed by Porsche. The tail end resembles a Porsche Carrera GT engine cover. This is basically a Porsche made for the water, with its luxurious leather seats, teak floors and carbon fiber dash board. Its mercury racing engine allows it to reach a top speed of 80 mph.
6. Private Bar
Johnny Walker Blue Label commissioned Porsche Design Studio to create the ultimate whiskey bar. This "Private Bar" is made of stainless steel and can fully open and close itself utilizing a touch-less system. It's more of an art sculpture than a bar, really.
7. Champagne Refrigerator
If hard liquor isn't your thing, there's always this exquisite champagne refrigerator. Porsche designed this 7 1/2 foot "stainless steel monolith" for Veuve Clicquot back in 2007. Only 15 of these refrigerators were made, having gone for over 100.000€ each. Vintage bottles are protected in their own compartments that illuminate orange when opened.
