The steampunk movement gained popularity in the 1980s and early 1990s, but it has hardly lost any fizz. Starting out as a genre of science fiction, steampunk is now a style on its own.
Check out this cluster of steampunk-inspired finds, from rustic digital watches to artillery-covered animals to sky-bound steampunk greeneries.

Companies can take advantage of this retro-futuristic theme -- and capture its consumer base -- by giving modern gadgets a retro feel through the use of gadgets, complicated miniature machinery and opulent, sci-fi-inspired detailing.
