What better way to welcome a new year with a dressed up door? If you are bored with your door, and you don’t mind ignoring style/design conventions, then you might be interested in purchasing one of these skins.
I discovered Fantasy Factory1 the other day, and I couldn’t help but think how cool it would be to have one of their door skins. This company just might have the answer to the geek fantasy of having his very own Star Trek Holodeck themed door like the one below. Basically, they create skins that can be stuck on standard doors that can be found in most homes. They sell kits which include covering for the door panel and the door trim molding.
If Star Trek is not your thing,2 then maybe this Tardis door will do the trick?
They have a lot of other designs available on their web site, but sadly, there is only a handful in the Sci-Fi category. Take your pick from:
- Avatar-inspired door theme
- Space shuttle door
- Star Wars-inspired Falcon door theme
- Resident Evil Umbrella Corp door theme
These kits sell for a hefty $350 each – painted. If you want to save $150, you can get the unpainted version and exercise your creativity while you’re at it. If that is not enough of a challenge for you, you can get the most basic theme – labeled Sci-Fi Themed Door Decor Unpainted – for $95.
Here’s their video commercial (which I think could use some work to be honest) if you need more visuals. Just ignore the use of Sci-Fy! ;)
One design that I would like to see is the airlock that Roslin loves to use. What door would you like to have as your own?
