Seeing it makes you want to hear it

Back in 2002, Onkyo needed a high-end looking display to showcase their latest surround sound system.  The challenge was in devising an aesthetically appealing method to suspend the rear speakers behind the consumer so that they could enjoy the full audio experience.  I came up with a few options using powder coated metal tubing.  I also had some fun experimenting with an array of finishes and graphic treatment options for the structure of the display.  These are the result.  The renderings look crude to me now!  3D modeling and rendering have come a long way since then.
