ICM - Leeds Design Agency

Good design stands out. Fantastic design (coupled with imagination) stands out, smacks you in the face and steals your wallet. The guys and girls (and other creatures) that work at the Weta Workshops in New Zealand create such things to make sure that you can’t afford food or pay your Mortgage.

But Honestly – food is overrated in comparison to the stuff conjured up by Weta . . .

For a sample I recommend heading over to Dr. Grordbort’s Infallible Aether Oscillators website and becoming financially poorer – yet immeasurably cooler and better armed than at any time before.

For those of you that do not know – WETA Group of companies comprise of two distinct arms – Weta Workshop and Weta Digital. In a nutshell – they create, that the only way I can describe them. The workshop make stuff (in the real sense) and the Digital side make . . . well . . . digital stuff. Both the websites are fantastic and you will be amazed at how many things or places you will recognize, from film, TV and Theatre – to Games and Public Art. The websites have tonnes of detail about the processes and projects that they have worked on, detailing cutting edge technology and techniques – combined with skilled craftsmen and women to make . . . erm . . . stuff . . . Just go to the website and you will see what I mean.

Anyhow – its just a front to cover up the fact that they are magical diamond encrusted Dragons from Pluto and are using the website shop to distribute their far superior technology to their agents across the globe.

Thats why I am getting thinner for a few months and buying A FREAKING RAY GUN!!!! . . . This one in fact “ Or this one
