You´re right, same style. And in the lower left corner, there´s a car button as well, not in focus like at B & O´s, but maybe a little parallell Automobile.

Regards,

Rolf

I totally disagree Puncher, I would certainly shake off the middle aged man with the pipe and slippers image that BANG&OLUFSEN have always had! B&O needs to attract these young, fashion spenders and as yet, it still doesn't seem to be quite doing so!

In this instance I'm more than happy to be associated with the pipe & slippers brigade as long as Dr whatsisface takes his "bean tins joined with string+ subwoofer" concept elsewhere. Remember, style is timeless, fashion is for victims - this year's fashion is next year's embarassment.

Hopefully the fact that the websites share the same template is as close as the relationship ever gets.

Hang on Pounch!

This could be the launch of a whole new brand: DR. PLAY

After all, Andy has been in fashion for thirty years! ...and -Hey... I occasionally draw Danish across my Meerschaum... Oh... Er... Wait a minute!

 

Argh! You are right again! This would be the definitive shark jump in Struer.

The Beats website is a little B&O.

The B&O is also a bit appleish too - navigation at the top, scroll down and hover over to reveal products.  I think its just how web design is going, it's being prepared to be consumed on tablets and different devices so it will also start to have a homogeneous look.

As per that fashion line puncher, I don't think it even looked good back then lol.  Maybe James Spader would have been sporting those shorts lol.  I don't think B&O is pipe and slippers, it's more classic Mercedes (to me).  But it's about time it's point of difference hits a new urban market just like what Mercedes did.
