This design comes from the amazing Apple Design book by Paul Kunkel.
Apple prototype from the Oct and December 1992. Part of the Pomona design series.
I’ve always wished Apple had produced this particular design, but it appears to have never made it past the mock up phase. In fact, this is the only picture that I’ve ever seen of the design. It was part of the Pomona design series done in October and December of 1992. I love the curves and the contrast of the black and birch. The portrait monitor is also very attractive. I’ve often had a vertical monitor setup since the early Radius Pivot monitors.
One of the things I’ll do on this site is document my attempts to recreate a working version of this prototype. I’m looking to use 3D printing for the metal supports and possibly a Raspberry Pi to emulate vMac and System 7. Stay tuned.
