With our new home, I’m getting my own office. I really want to theme it, and I’m trying to decide what to go with. Note that there will be 3 arcade games in the office: Star Wars, Tron, and Discs of Tron. Some options:
- Space: I have some beautiful space-themed canvas prints for the walls (Thanks, sister!) which would make a good start to the theme, and the Star Wars arcade game fits in.
- Robots: I want to have a place to display my robot collection and this could be cool, especially with some robot-themed art work
- Portal: I saw a cool Portal-themed office recently that really made me want to try. Do the wall, have some Portal knick-knacks around, and some Portal art on the walls. Could be cool.
- Star Wars: I have a few Star Wars collectibles to display plus the Star Wars arcade game. Could be good if not overdone. I saw an office once (and have a picture somewhere) that looked like the cockpit of the Millenium Falcon – that would be cool.
- Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy: I have a framed and signed poster from Douglas Adams, a 42 towel, a C64 HHGTTG game, etc. This would be subtle but classy and my robots could fit in as long as I have a Marvin in there.
- Tron: I’m leaning towards NOT doing Tron. The only way to do it right is glowing blue on black and that’s not the look I want.

I like the cockpit of the Millenium Falcon idea!
Portal would be cool too, you have to have portals painted on the wall or at least big posters of them if you do that though.
I like the HHGTTG theme because I initially thought robots would be best. You can get the best of both worlds with HHGTTG. Not to mention, I don’t really know much about the other stuff. I’m a lesser Pipa when it comes to sci-fi ;)
