At the intersection of Art, History, Design, and Technology, is a growing fringe called Steampunk. With devotees spanning across genders and generations, the Steampunk movement speculates visually about how the world might be if modern technology existed during the height of the Victorian aesthetic. It also awakens something special in the minds of many, as Bruce Rosenbaum explains.
Dubbed the ‘Steampunk Guru’ by the Wall Street Journal & the ‘Steampunk Evangelist’ by WIRED Magazine, Bruce Rosenbaum has quickly become an authority on Steampunk art and design through his company, ModVic. Bruce and his wife Melanie transformed their own home into the well-known ‘Steampunk House’.
His work is most popularly and immediately recognized in The Steampunk House, his and his wife Melanie’s retro-future restored home, which has been featured on HGTV, A&E, Discovery and MTV. The Steampunk House has been profiled in Victorian Homes Magazine, Boston Magazine, Green Builder Magazine, Retro Magazine, and Gear Technology Magazine.
