Steve from Sounds Heavenly talks to Torsten Valeur of Valeur Designers (the inspiration behind many @bangolufsen designs, including Beocom 2, Beolab 8000 and Beovision Harmony) about his time working with David Lewis and the impact of his design style on B&O products. Please note that the 1960 music system shown in this video was designed by Jacob Jensen, not David Lewis. Every cable you will ever need for your B&O products can be seen on Steve's website here: soundsheavenly.com If these videos have helped you to enjoy your Bang and Olufsen products, please consider buying Steve a coffee at buymeacoffee.com/soundsheavenly - many thanks!
Excellent to hear those tales but sad how fast David was taken from us. Thanks for making and sharing this film Steve - gives a real insight into the magic of B&O.
That was extremely interesting thank you. I love good design in general and I was interested in how Torsten talked about the product defining itself in a way. I think this approach explains why B & O products seem so naturally right, they are really at ease with themselves as designs.
This was so inspirational! Thorsten seems like such a humble, calm and passionate person. I could continue listening to him for many more videos so I’m looking forward to the studio tour. He did create the Level in more recent years, didn’t he? I’d love for him to explain how he feels about today’s B&O creations and what he owns himself. This was to me your best video yet! Thank you for making it Steve!
Thanks, it was an honour to be able to meet Torsten, he has created many amazing B&O designs including the Level. He is a very humble man and a real please to speak to. More videos with Torsten coming soon!
Thanks so much, Steve! I love the description at [9:25] of Torsten's preconceptions about CD players being broken by the 9000. It's funny to say but that happened to me only this year - I had never seen any 9000 before until a few months ago, and I only knew of the plain ones from the 90's! I don't collect CDs anymore but it really helped me to appreciate how the B&O designers think outside the box.
Thank you Steve for posting. I for one still keeps and uses David Lewis designed B&O at home. From time to time I stare at his minimalist industrial design.
@@soundsheavenly Yes Steve, happy to know that Torsten Valeur is so passionate in David Lewis design that the current B&O management hires his studio to carry out re imagining past DL designed B&O iconic product. Thank you again Steve for sharing 🙏🇺🇸

Yes it was a shame that David passed away so suddenly. It was an honour to be able to meet Torsten and to hear about his time working with David.
Another great interview! I’m sure Torsten is stoked his 18 design is still being sold today.
Thanks, yes Beolab 18 is an amazing design and a credit to Torsten’s dedication
