IMMADE

immade (stylised as IMMADE) is a boutique design studio and maker community that was founded in 2011 by two Swedish designers in Stockholm. The studio specialises in the creation of hand‑crafted audio equipment, including headphones, loudspeakers, and small electronics. Using a combination of traditional woodworking techniques and modern manufacturing processes, immade produces limited‑edition products that are marketed as artisanal and eco‑friendly.

The company’s flagship product line, the Acoustic Shell headphones, was introduced in 2014 and received praise in a number of tech publications for its distinctive sound profile and use of natural acoustic materials. In addition to physical products, immade hosts monthly workshops and collaborative projects that invite members of the maker community to experiment with circuit design, woodworking, and acoustic optimisation. The studio also publishes open‑source designs through its website so that enthusiasts can build or modify components themselves.

immade operates a small online storefront and sells its products through select boutique retailers in Europe and North America. The business has remained independent, refusing to align with major corporate distributors. In 2018 a feature in Wired magazine highlighted immade’s blend of art and engineering, which helped the brand gain a small but loyal following among audiophiles and DIY hobbyists. There are no known legal controversies or major awards associated with the studio. The studio continues to explore new material technologies and acoustic research, aiming to expand its product range while preserving the maker ethos at its core.
