No idea what other products he has designed for B&O, but this is his website:

me personally hope he won't become the successor of Lewis, because the beosound 6 is not promissing at all and neither are the other product designs on his site; IMHO ofcourse.

Agree. Some things are nice. I wouldn't go as far as to say "inspired" about any of the products, except maybe the bookshelves on the exhibition page. But I wasn't sure what in that picture was his and what wasn't.  I also liked his stainless steel spoons for salads, olives, etc. 

He does have a sense of humor though, which is important.

Don´t forget that BS6 is original designed by Samsung.

The porcelain bowls must have took a lot of thinking about!

I wouldn´t judge his work just by the one product he did for b&o until today. To me it looks as he didn´t have another chance than simply folding a piece of steel around the already existing samsung player to give it a more noble look. Bs6 is a piece of cheap korean electronics in a posh box and it shows. Imho it´s not his fault, I assume he had a very small budget for this work. And I like this porcelain bowls too, they seem to be quite clever...
