Modern Props, modern futures

Article Abstract:

Modern Props Inc is the studio behind realistic gadgetries used in many science fiction movies. Aside from designing and manufacturing props, the facility also maintains a large collection of materials, old and new, from which film makers rent their own motion picture props at less expensive rates than those of film studios. Founder and designer John Zabrucky's interest in merging the imaginary and the real in objects has broadened to include the retailing and designing business. He now services clients' home, automobile, and appliance designing needs using the styles that made many movies popular.

Strange fruit

Article Abstract:

The UK-based design group Tomato has attracted much attention because of its eye-catching, unconventional work. Tomato came about in 1991 when several graphic designers got together and combined their talent for print, video and sound. They quickly established a reputation for good original work and the group is now very much in demand not only in the UK but in overseas markets as well.
