# Art Deco Computers This SkyVue PC Casing Looks Like a Miniature Skyscraper from the 1930s By Michael Hemsworth | Published 2016-03-09 | Art & Design Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/pc-casing References: [damngeeky](http://www.damngeeky.com/2016/03/08/40015/skyvue-pc-case-mod-inspired-by-1930s-skyscraper-architecture.html) & [slipperyskip](http://slipperyskip.com/page42.html) Technology has become a mainstay notion in the home, so computers and accessories are being given a more design-focused overhaul as seen with the SkyVue PC Casing. Created and crafted by Jeffrey Stephenson, the case mod draws inspiration from the Art Deco style of the 1930s. The PC features an exterior made from aircraft-grade birch plywood, while the interior is designed as a fully capable computer that's ready for intensive work. Outfitted with 16GB of RAM, a 240GB SSD boot drive and a 480GB storage drive, the PC also features a liquid cooling system. The SkyVue PC Casing features aluminum accents and looks quite a bit like the 30 Rockefeller Center in New York, although that's just this writer's opinion. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 5.3/10 - Popularity: 70% | Activity: 80% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Art & Design](https://www.trendhunter.com/artdesign) > [Design](https://www.trendhunter.com/design) ## Key Themes ### What Makes This Trend Stand Out - **Art Deco-inspired Design:** Opportunity to incorporate Art Deco aesthetics into technology products for a more visually appealing consumer experience. - **Design-focused Tech Overhaul:** Potential to revamp traditional computer and tech accessories with a greater emphasis on design and aesthetics. - **Functional and Stylish Computer Cases:** Rise in demand for computer cases that combine functionality with eye-catching design elements. ### Sectors Adopting This - **Consumer Electronics:** Disruptive innovation opportunities in creating consumer electronics that merge technology with visually appealing design. - **Technology Accessories:** Opportunity to develop tech accessories that prioritize both functionality and aesthetic appeal, offering consumers a design-focused alternative. - **Custom Computer Case Manufacturing:** Potential growth in the market for custom computer case production, catering to consumers seeking unique and stylish solutions. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Alien-Inspired PC Cases](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/aftershock-pc-case.md) - [Retro-Inspired PC Cases](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/silverstone-flp01.md) - [Design-Conscious Mini Desktop PCs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/ayaneo-mini-pc-am03.md) - [Cyberpunk-Inspired Gaming PCs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/xcube-gaming-mini-pc.md) - [Retro-Inspired Custom PC Cases](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/silverstone-flp03.md) - [Retro-Style Mini Gamer PCs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/ayaneo-retro-mini-pc-am01-1.md) - [Special-Edition Wood PC Cases](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/proart-pa401.md) - [Timber eSports Computer Cases](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/cyberwood-pc-case.md) - [Scandinavian Themed Modern PCs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/north-pc.md)
