Steam Punk is my new favorite aesthetic

I have been doing a lot of research for my site and keep looking up steam punk.  I have always kind of liked steam punk, but since looking at all the great stuff out there.  If I ever have the time and money to actually decorate my office I think I am going to go with a steam punk theme.

The reason steam punk rules is it is a vision of the future that isn’t the lame present we live in.  Computers have cool valves and actual dials.  Somehow cool machines do amazing things thanks to all the extra rings and flanges.  It’ is technology presented as an aesthetic, not a function.  The closest thing we get these days is some of the Apple stuff, but really even that stuff sucks.  Is it really so necessary to make everything as minimalistic as possible?  This is an example of one of the great novelty t shirts that I am finding out there and speaks volumes to me.
