San Diego’s first choice in Creative Services for the Entertainment Industries.

These airship models were created  for Lockheed Martin’s “Skunkworks”, and the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA). We had six weeks to take the information we were given and create the physical models.  There were two versions of this made, but basically they only have a few minor differences. The renderings (below) were part of the animation that went with the display.

SPAWAR | BRIEFING ROOM

This was a permanent install at the SPAWAR Center in San Diego.  It’s primary use was to demonstrate new military software applications in a futuristic environment.  Besides designing and building the vacuum formed wall panels, We also created all the graphics and illustrations on the sled transparencies.

“We should make the whole building like this.”
