VAIO is a sub-brand for many of Sony’s computer products. It was originally an acronym for Video Audio Integrated Operation, but since 2008 amended to Visual Audio Intelligence Organizer to celebrate the brand’s 10th year anniversary. The branding was created by Timothy Hanley to distinguish items that encompassed the use of consumer audio and video, as well as being conventional computing products. VAIO, while aiming to create new value is always close to people, easy to use, and designed as a functional product that is beautiful. The VAIO logo also represents the integration of analog and digital technology. The ‘VA’ represents an analog wave and the ‘IO’ represents digital binary code.
I often visit Japanese Sony websites for interesting content, and upon looking at Sony Japan’s MyVAIO website I noticed an interesting wallpaper collection dubbed “Essence Of VAIO Design.” I thought that some of you would enjoy this – they will update it once each month and I shall do so as well. Photos are by Yukio Shimizu, who does photos for Sony Design.
