Curated themes
These are editorial collection themes — invitations to explore visual language and imaginative design, not a list of verified physical inventory.
Theme one
Rockets, saucers and exploratory machines distilled the excitement of a new frontier into bold silhouettes and bright enamel. Here, we look at the graphic confidence that makes even a small launch vehicle feel monumental.
Theme two
Stamped metal, simple mechanisms and expressive faces gave tin robots a personality all their own. Their appeal is in the tension between machine precision and an unmistakably human sense of character.
Theme three
Models turn engineering dreams into a language of fins, windows and daring profiles. This theme focuses on craftsmanship at miniature scale and the enduring poetry of a craft pointed toward the unknown.
Theme four
Ray guns, planetary maps and far-future trinkets turn speculation into a tangible world. We explore the optimistic, eccentric visual shorthand that made science fiction a playground for design.
