MacFormat magazine (http://www.macformat.co.uk/) commissioned me to conceptualise a future iMac to accompany a related article. I based the design on current Apple design trends, as well as the previous iMac incarnation (which is my favourite).

The iMac features a 30" utra-thin LCD screen, which is totally transparent when the iMac is not in use. The screen can also be set to various levels of translucency, and can fade during sleep modes etc. The keyboard is also totally tramsparent, low profile and a curved ergonomic design, with light sensitive illuminated keys.
Everything is of course, wireless.

:) Cheers

Terrific!

What OS version are you running? Cheeta?
But top notch design. Will take a while i guess before everything really gets so thin.
by Eugenius on Jul 3, 2006 7:20:51 am [homepage]

Very sleek. Nice work.

Beautiful idea and wonderfully executed. Can't wait for it to appear on the shelves!
by kenmo on Jul 3, 2006 7:33:31 am [homepage]

Excellent ....
by spetzarv on Jul 3, 2006 7:37:10 am [homepage]

Damn fine concept, elegant and simplistic. I presume the cd/dvd slot loads from the top?
by Dinhi on Jul 3, 2006 8:05:11 am [homepage]

Well done! In this era of fantastic electronics, it's nice to see the simple and elegant possibilities that are possible. (=

this deserves to be made possible!

sweet image and concept
by Chris on Jul 3, 2006 9:04:48 am [homepage]

wow ... cool design ... but it an Apple, huh? ;)

Great Work!
by zhaanman on Jul 3, 2006 9:11:16 am [homepage]

Man how did you know I need one of these? I've been stuck using the Library computers!! Just let me know when It will be delivered so I can be awake I work nights.

Very cool concept! *****5STaR

I really like those speakers that double as candle stick holders:p

I wonder how lighting would effect the screen. Sun light and ambient room light bla bla.

How long did it take you to do this project, from concept to final render?
by chachi on Jul 3, 2006 9:32:32 am [homepage]

Great work as usual! Killer design. I'm starting to like Macs now
by kromekat on Jul 3, 2006 9:34:40 am [homepage]

Thanks folks! - Sans2012 - can't remember how long exactly as it was done at intervals over a few days - maybe 12-15 hrs total.
by Sabra on Jul 3, 2006 10:27:25 am [homepage]

Oh baby, I'll take one for sure. After I pay last month's bills, that is...*lol* Great and creative concept, most impressed by your originality as always. My compliments!
by LiviaCH on Jul 3, 2006 11:12:25 am [homepage]

Wow! Think that's gonna be my new Mac :-)))
by miketche on Jul 3, 2006 1:40:49 pm [homepage]

Nice! I want one.
by ChrisNz on Jul 3, 2006 3:48:57 pm [homepage]

Nice! Top notch concept indeed. Macs have, at least since the G3 B&W, always been a graceful blend style and powerful. Can't wait for this one.
by shakes on Jul 3, 2006 5:14:05 pm [homepage]

top work as usual Adam! I want one too!
by alan42 on Jul 3, 2006 6:42:30 pm [homepage]

beautifully imagined and rendered - my only concern is that with a see-through screen people at work would be able to see I was using C4D rather than doing my real job!
by markdavid on Jul 4, 2006 4:56:01 am [homepage]

That's a really clever piece of work - in design as well as 3D work. Well done!
by RodsArt on Jul 4, 2006 6:18:37 am [homepage]

Amazing work!
by ariannah on Jul 4, 2006 1:01:40 pm [homepage]

Mind boggling work - congrats on all your hard earned effort!
Can you ship one to the U.S. by way of California? ;-)
by Perry6 on Jul 4, 2006 6:01:02 pm [homepage]

I wouldn't be surprised if Apple steals your design! Fantastic and totally keeping with the Mac's evolution. The only thing I don't think I'll like it this curved keyboard (my thumbs would keep bumping into each other) :)
