steampunk computer desk - Page 2

post #11 of 19
My wife described Steampunk to me quite well

" If the victorians got the technology we have now, it's pretty much what Steampunk is about "

Thinking about it, it's pretty true, it's a merge of old style and new technology, it's Tank Girl to the tee

As much work as it'd take to make that mod, I wouldn't really want to own it. Looks really ugly.

I know this is a necro but my god that makes me sad. At one time in its life it was a beautiful, expensive, rare organ. why cant people that like steam punk use reproductions. Its the style they like not the historical what a shame

This may only be my opinion, but I fail to understand why anyone would think this is ugly. This is just gorgeous. I'm not sure if it's worth the effort though.

Its an amazing piece of craftmanship, but its not very practical. I do like steampunk, but I wouldnt want something like that in my house either... dont missunderstand me, its not because I dont like it! I just dont have the space, it doesnt look very comfortable to use and besides it wouldnt go wery well with the rest of my furniture tongue.gif

Totally agree. Also, I enjoy a much less 'formal', much more industrial and dirty style of steampunk. Perhaps even bordering on 'Dieselpunk' but without the WW2 theme. This desk, while a great piece of work, is far too gaudy and busy. It's distracting and overdone.
