ROV Inspections & Subsurface Monitoring

SubSierra Survey provides professional underwater inspections, surveys, and subsurface monitoring throughout the Sierra region using advanced remotely operated vehicles (ROVs). Our services help boat owners, marinas, and lakefront property managers understand and manage what lies below the surface through high-resolution video, detailed documentation, and precise underwater observation.

Each inspection includes a permanent digital record with mapped inspection points, photos, and video that clients can review through a secure inspection portal. 

This platform allows clients to review inspection footage, track asset condition over time, and share reports with insurance providers, contractors, or property managers when needed. By combining modern ROV technology with structured digital reporting, SubSierra Survey delivers efficient, accurate, and reliable insight into underwater conditions.

AxiomPrintLab blends vintage-inspired art movements with modern STEM culture to create visually striking educational and conceptual prints. Drawing inspiration from iconic styles like Bauhaus minimalism, Andy Warhol pop-art repetition, and Mark Rothko abstract color fields, each poster transforms technical subjects into gallery-style wall art. Mathematical formulas, fractals, physics concepts, algorithms, engineering diagrams, and scientific notation are reimagined through bold composition, structured typography, and modern visual balance.

The store focuses on making complex ideas feel artistic, collectible, and approachable without losing their intellectual depth. Rather than creating traditional classroom-style educational posters, AxiomPrintLab treats equations, code, and scientific concepts as design elements themselves — turning them into statement pieces for offices, studios, classrooms, dorms, and creative workspaces. The result is a unique fusion of retro design language and modern curiosity: art prints built for people who appreciate both aesthetics and ideas.

Built around humor, nostalgia, and mountain culture, Tahoe Types transforms real Tahoe experiences into display-worthy collectibles people want to own, gift, and talk about. Whether it’s Tree Hugger Harry wrapped around a pine tree or Lost Tourist Larry shivering in shorts with an upside-down map, the series celebrates the wild, ridiculous, and iconic moments that happen only in Tahoe.
