G.A.O House’ Enchanting Architecture Finds its Match with WORK PRO

When architecture embraces both sustainability and technology, the results can be transformative. That’s exactly what 85 Design Studio has achieved with Vietnam’s G.A.O House — a stunning redesign that turns an ageing structure into a modern, climate-conscious living and working space.

At the heart of this project’s serene atmosphere lies a subtle yet powerful element: audio by WORK PRO, the flagship brand of Equipson.

One of the standout integrations is the CSR 208 MKII ceiling speaker, seamlessly installed to deliver premium sound without disrupting the minimalist aesthetic. Painted in ochre to blend perfectly with the earthy palette, the speakers disappear visually while enriching the space sonically — a quiet triumph of design synergy.

Engineered for large spaces where quality and discretion are paramount, the CSR 208 MKII features a dual cone woofer for balanced sound reproduction and a power selector for 100V line installations. Its compact, minimalist design makes it especially suited for projects where technology is expected to serve the space, rather than dominate it.

For G.A.O House, this versatility was key. The speaker not only met the technical demands of the project but also aligned with the architectural vision — creating a home that feels natural, cosy, and acoustically alive.
