An asymmetrical slice of awesome, Studio FRST’s 16943 concept TV accommodates media in the standard 4:3 aspect ratio as well as in the 16:9 widescreen format, hence the name.

Studio FRST also exalts its creation as “A technological sculpture in levitation. Between opacity and transparency.” So it’s a flying colloid?

The TV’s built-in player only plays DVDs, but hey, it’s built-in! In levitation! Between opacity and transparency!

I really hope something like this gets mass produced. I can live without the glass base if it means a cheaper product. And the square gap can be used to house the TV’s controls. Do it Pioneer!

Oh i like this format too and it looks much cooler than the other ones
Not only that it looks cooler, but it is more natural to look at the screen like this as well
you could make it play subtitles on the unused portion when in widescreen mode.
that’d be neat a good Idea? might be a little to far to glance.
