The Gerb Mine combines the best of two of our most popular products; the silver sparks of a Gerb with the dynamic punch of a mine. The result is an effect that is totally unique but very familiar, with many applications for show design. Available in heights from 12 to 50, the Gerb Mine reaches height almost instantaneously while maintaining a tight pattern, creating an exciting dynamic to any cue. Product can also be shot at various angles, adding to its versatility.

"When you consider the evolution of architecture, you will find it developed out of a very simple, basic idea: security," reflects architect and LACC professor David Ming-Li Lowe. "The history of home design grew out of a need for a safeguard against danger" A resident of Southern California for almost 35 years, Lowe has long been aware that one of the greatest threats to homeowners here is that of a devastating earthquake. But it was not until three years ago, when he considered the problem as an architect, that Lowe began working on a solution. Two steel-frame townhouses that incorporate a revolutionary new design technique are currently being built in West LA - Lowe says they will make houses of the future virtually earthquake-proof. Each townhouse is built on a network of earthquake bases. These structures do not rest, rather "float" on 17 low- frequency, wide-displacement, elastic, isolated bases, each consisting of a series of springs surrounding a central "visco-damper" core that supports the frame of the house at key locations, each of which is computer-calculated for the precise tributary load of that area. They are, in effect, shock absorbers, designed to absorb the movement of even the most potentially dangerous earthquake. "While this is innovative technology for Southern California, "Lowe points out, "it has been in use for many years in Europe." When Lowe first began developing his earthquake bases, he discovered that the Gerb Corporation of Essen, Germany ...
