Decor

I am in a strange mood today. In one of the threads we were posting about wall shelves and I mentioned how much I like the AG mainly for the way it can go well in a living room or bedroom and not look 'farm-y' in a guest room area, unlike the bucket-y styled or grow tents.

So I went on a surfing expedition and in my search found some fun stuff!

How's this for those who want to have a hydro centered kitchen? The lights are on the underside of the seats, and the plants in  the tabletop have an overhanging light.!




Forget shelves! How about wall space dedicated to hydro?


Or YOU CAN HAVE A WALL something called a LIVE SCREEN which is a wall built for many Hydro units, each one having light and pump!



Or a Living Wall for the Living Room!



Scuttlebutt has it that AG is exploring this genre of hydro decor..the Stealth Grow Cabinet..   Looks like wood furniture but behind closed doors and drawers is a space for water and light and conditions for growing plants!
The collection of ideas is endless!
 

Lucrative is the word that comes to mind. But if one has the $$, why not?!
I am poor, so please give me something simple that just plain bleepin' works for a few years.
But I admire those whose wallets can afford these niceties.

I love some of those ideas.  But not hte money.  However I am sure I can have someone put in a cabinet and sit my AG's in them for cheaper then what they would sell it for.

  I should have Mark take some dimensions and get some quotes on a unit.  Something like in the second picture.  However it would also be hard to remove the unit for cleaning and you would see the hood if it was not raised.  Nah...  I guess I will stick with what I have.

This is what I was eyeing up before AG came out with the Farms:

The price isn't that much more than a Farm (considering), but it's very unlikely I could actually get it into my apartment.

Very nice!

A few of these ideas I really like.  But for the price I think I can just have my contractor make something like this, but one that would fit properly (this was made for magazines and had a 2 middle shelves).  As you raise the hood it gets stuck and shaves finish and wood off, not to mention scratches up the AG hood.  And maybe he can make it a triple.

I bet if you gave the dimensions to a wood artisan he could come up with something quite good looking and suitable at a reasonable price..and most important....exactly what you want..

Exactly.  My contractor ‘s background is in cabinetry so it should be a cakewalk for him.  I don’t know why I didn’t think of this before.  (Or, maybe I did, but I forgot about it every time... )

Hmmm so maybe I will still have Mark take all the measurements.  Well I can do that, I will just have him look for people and get estimates.   We may be on to something.     Thanks @cornne for posting the ideas.
