Home Decor for Absolute Geeks

May 8th, 2008  |  106 Comments
photoshop listsSo you think you are a perfect geek just because you have a talking Homer and a Space Invaders mug at your desk? No chance.
Maybe a lava lamp or a not-so-exclusive Google mini-fridge? Meh, go away.
To become a respectable geek you should do more than buying used schwags on Ebay for your cubicle. Not to mention that hanging solar system built using old cds is your one way ticket to nerd city.
To become a real geek, just take a look at this gallery of uber-cool home and office appliances, furniture and other decorative elements built just for this purpose.
Most of them are very expensive, and some others are just prototypes. But that shouldn’t be an obstacle in you search for a better geekness. Just be sure to get them now that you are single and free. No wife in her right mind will allow any of these at home!

    that’s ridiculously amazing! I’m just wondering exactly how the printer toaster (which is EPIC) works. Do you hook it up to a computer and do a black and white print or what? because if I can I’m going to make every document I need to print on toast.

    - excuse me? I would INSTANTLY marry someone who had even one of these things…well, y’know…providing the person in question was cute as well…

  19. Enrique Says:

    @Bird: Wouldn’t a pixelated sofa, a Han Solo desk, a 3d mesh curtain and some emoticon pillows make anybody look cute? ;-)

  20. Malin (Designer, Artist, Geek and Wife) Says:

    I must have that Han Solo desk! Also, I think that the author may be slightly misguided in assuming that girlfriends/wives wouldn’t let their men get this stuff, my wife would definitely let me get pretty much everything here. Which is good because I want pretty much everything here. My dream house is full of stuff like this.

  76. Sarah Says:

    Way to be sexist, douchebag. Automatically assuming that a) any “geek” who would be interested in these things would be male, and b) any potential wife of said geek would not be? Come on. I’m a girl and I’m all over this shit, and I assume any guy who was wouldn’t marry (or shouldn’t marry) a woman who wasn’t. Grow up and stop stereotyping.
