Hi....
having realised computer HD box design has swung away from the previous uniform putty grey rectangular things this last year or so, I wondered if anyone knows of a company that makes custom casings...not the sparky bits inside.

I ask because During a period of creative boredom I have designed my own casing and its met with favourable comments from my colleagues and wondered if it might stand a chance of being built.

Very grateful for any pointers.

I'll post images when I can knock the design into shape from an illustration point of view.

Cheers and many thanks
Peter

But I was thinking something a little more B&O...


A couple of early scribbles, one cleaned up a little.
