Electronic Plastic

If you can't find what you are looking for here, then try again soon. There will be regular updates during 2001. Alternatively why not buy Jaro Gielen's massive "Electronic Plastic" 176 page paperback. It contains large photos of his 400-piece collection including adverts and box graphics. Buro Destruct's Lopetz's stunning, colourful and kitsch graphic design even puts my site to shame. Unmissable! Click here for more info and details of how to order.
