Designing for Future Generations—Lessons Learned from a Century. For a century, Bang & Olufsen has explored what it means to create products that can stand the test of time—not just in terms of durability, but in how they remain relevant over time: functionally, emotionally and aesthetically. Materials are carefully chosen for longevity, products are designed to be serviced, repaired, upgraded, reused or remanufactured—extending their lifecycle both technically and emotionally. Designing for longevity is not just about durability. It’s about creating objects that resonate.
