The unique Scientelec Espace system is a French hi-fi icon from the 1970s. It’s a true collector’s gem, designed by French designer Emmanuelle Agostini—whose distinctly feminine approach is strikingly apparent throughout the system, setting it dramatically apart from anything else on the market—together with Jean-Bernard Girard.
This setup is not only technically fascinating but also visually bold. It represents a fusion of futuristic design and high-quality sound—something rare in domestic audio equipment at the time.
It’s a modular system, where every component was designed to create a unified aesthetic experience. All parts are enclosed in elegant white ABS plastic casings that resemble something out of science fiction.
Agostini and Girard were part of a wave of French designers in the 1970s who brought playfulness, elegance, and boldness to consumer electronics. Scientelec Espace is proof of that—it looks like an object from a spaceship, yet delivers a fully-fledged analog experience.
