TheSoloist is an independent technology-art studio that creates functional artwork sculpted by technology, through numbered collaborations with invited master designers.
One paragraph
TheSoloist is an independent technology-art studio headquartered in Hong Kong. The studio operates on an "invite-the-soloist" model: each product is a numbered collaboration with a world-class designer, artist or architect. The first product, TheSoloist.Sound (Soloist No.001), is a 110-centimeter Brutalist speaker-sculpture designed by Japanese designer Takahiro Miyashita as a tribute to the New York Flatiron Building. Future numbered collaborations are in development across refrigerators, cigar humidors, desktop audio and other categories.

TheSoloist is an independent technology-art studio headquartered in Hong Kong. The studio's thesis is that consumer objects can hold the same cultural weight as art when they are curated rather than mass-produced — when each object is signed by a master and shaped by a coherent aesthetic philosophy.
The studio operates on an "invite-the-soloist" model: each product is a numbered collaboration. The brand is the curator and the stage; the invited master is the soloist. The first product, TheSoloist.Sound (Soloist No.001), was created by Japanese designer Takahiro Miyashita — founder of Number (N)ine and TAKAHIROMIYASHITATheSoloist. — as a 110-centimeter Brutalist speaker-sculpture, hand-finished in cement-textured polycarbonate composite, paying tribute to the silhouette of the Flatiron Building. The piece houses a 7-channel, 2000-watt audio system.
TheSoloist's visual signature — cement texture, chiseled concrete, the Brutalist gesture — extends across categories. Future numbered collaborations under development include a refrigerator (Soloist No.002) and a cigar humidor (Soloist No.003), each to be announced with its own invited master. TheSoloist is currently distributed by Drivepro (exclusive across mainland China and Taiwan) and a curated network of international boutiques: Boltbolt, Archived and Maxfield (United States), PENCE (Japan), Kream and Gazeshop (South Korea).
