1994 Best of the Times
Client: Anheuser-Busch Inc.
Producer: Henschel-Steinau Inc.
Category: Multiple Materials: Floorstand
Comments: The client wanted a display that would secure a permanent area of the store for the roll-out of a premium brand. The large replica of the flagship bottle has a pinwheel-support design that allows for easy restocking and consumer access. A flakeboard base supports 24 cases. Injection-molded trays were made from a new, high-gloss medium-impact styrene that simulates the luster of ABS, but costs less.

Client: Sony Electronics Inc.
Producer: Design Display Group Inc.
Category: Fabricated Plastic: Floorstand/fixture
Comments: The goal was to create a flexible, theft-resistant display for speakers that would not diminish their sound quality. This display, manufactured largely from acrylic, has adjustable shelves with rubber pads that reduce vibration. While this is an open-air presentation, metal rods provide security when inserted in front of the speakers.

Client: Ford Electronics
Producer: Visual Productions Inc.
Category: Wood: Floorstand
Comments: Although a large display, its balanced design enables it to blend into auto dealerships like a piece of fine furniture. The client wanted it to show customers the differences in premium sound systems. A customized circuit board can switch power among four different audio components.
