Mark Rodriguez has twin daughters with very different tastes – one is into flowers and butterflies while the other is a Superman fanatic. Since they share a room, this presented serious decorating challenges, but thankfully Mark is an artist, and was able to create a dual-decorated room that catered to both of their interests. Mark created custom lights of a ladybug and the Superman logo as well as murals painted on wooden cutouts.
The logo light is especially awesome, and Mark states he would be interested in producing them for sale if he was able to secure a licensing agreement. Check out some additional photos after the break.

Geek themed rooms are always good things even if the room is the bathroom. After a friend expressed a desire to have a Spider-Man themed room in the house for her husband, Riley Replicas designed a faux brick wall with some of Spidey’s villains punching through. The wall ended up being put in the bathroom.
“I had a friend who wanted to decorate a room in her house for her husband who is a HUGE Spider-man fan so I made this wall panel for the room. I went with a faux brick wall theme with Spideys villains bursting through the wall! I have The Sandman, The Lizard, Doc Ock and The Green Goblin represented.
Just wanted to add pics of the wall installed in the customers….bathroom! Pretty unusual place but I think it turned out OK”
Yes, it is unusual. I don’t know about you, but I’m not sure how I’d feel about looking at Sandman’s fist while I’m taking care of business. Still, it’s following in familiar footsteps. Check out these Super Mario Bros and World of Warcraft bathrooms.

A Doctor Who superfan by the name of Erica Quinn turned her home in Glasgow into a TARDIS, of sorts, by painting the front door and propping up life-sized cutouts of the 10th and 11th Doctors, Amy Pond, Captain Jack Harkness and a Dalek in the windows. On holidays, she dresses up the cutouts in themed costumes.
In the future she hopes to build a replica of the console room in her entrance hall to complement her existing Doctor Who decor.

I’ve been a huge fan of Art Nouveau artist Alphonse Mucha ever since I went to see an exhibition of his work back in the ’90s. He has seen a resurgence in popularity among the nerdy community thanks to t-shirts created by Megan Lara—but her work on these new Firefly Les Femmes prints from Qmx are on a whole new level of beautiful.
The four poster set includes Inara Serra, Kaylee Frye, River Tam and Zoe Washburne. A fifth version featuring Saffron will only be available at SDCC. So if you are planning on going, make sure to swing by the Qmx booth.
