B&O Play H6 Rapha Edition

Information

The brief was to create a story around the launch of the B&O Play H6 Rapha Edition over-ear headphones – a collaboration between Danish brand B&O Play and British cycling brand Rapha.

Bang & Olufsen and Rapha wanted to introduce this new version to bike riders and fans of the brand. The story would primarily live on B&O Play’s web platform as a microsite, but parts of the story would also be used in consumer touchpoints i.e. social media, the B&O Play Journal and in-store.

Connecting soundand cycling

We wanted to underpin the connection between sound and cycling. In particular the effect of music during preparation, turbo sessions, and recovery. This connection formed the basis of the experience with a simple narrative of three chapters: prepare, race and recover.

The backbone of the experience is the story. But the key to the experience is to tell it in an entertaining way that will keep audiences engaged.

The Story

The story takes users on a journey through the zones of cycling: prepare, race and recover – and talks about the things that connect sound and cycling together. It also highlights the beautiful details of the product. The story comes to life through a parallax scrolling format, with a mix of images and video. This helps keep the user engaged and entertained throughout the story.
