    2 is the coolest tech wise but least female friendly. The 50s thing could be cool … maybe a 50s diner as another idea. Me personally I’ve always wanted to do a 1980s arcade theme. I also think a madmen type man cave could also be cool.

    My mancave is a former coal cellar. I themed it, well, former coal cellar. It has a desk and a pc inside, but that’s it.

    I’m a lady but have a kids living room (like we have a separate kids wing in our house just because of the way it was added to over the years before we bought it) and when the kids move out that is becoming a space like that. Absolutely a 1950s lounge for us. Pool table!

      A man collects items through experiences and displays them proudly for no one but the innermost trusted circle to view — and also to keep him from forgetting what he used to get up to, before he truly grokked Sisyphean allegory. 🤣

      Yeah, my office is the closest thing to a cave and it’s got vinyl 8-bit characters (space invaders) on my walls. The rest is typical framed stuff. It’s mildly fun while also respectable in the best way. I do concede that I have a Baphomet statue atop the bookshelf watching over me.

          Naturlich. Frankfurter Stil, IIRC? Kommen Sie von dort?

          (Entschuldigung, mein Kind Heßisch. Ich habe es seit '05 nicht mehr oft benutzt und es ist super kaputt.)

            Gude! Ich komme aus den USA, meine Familie ist aus Hessen, bei der ich oft zu Gast bin. Sie mögen keinen Ebbelwoi, aber sie waren mein Einstieg!

              Das ist echt geil! 🤘🏽 Meine Erkundung der EU war spontan und Frankfurt hatte den gunstigen (cheapest?) Flugpreis, aber es war die beste Überraschung, als ich ankam. Was für eine unglaubliche Stadt! Die Leute sind besser! 🤩

                Für amerikanische Touristen ist Frankfurt irgendwie das größte Geheimnis in Europa. Irgendwie hoffe ich, dass das so bleibt!

                  I could not agree more (gotta switch; it’s getting late, heh), and I felt the same about pre-10s Barcelona, but that ship has long since sailed. Still, my travels changed my life in so many ways, and I can’t wait to get back to it! Have fun, fellow human, and here’s hoping for a better, more compassionate world for all of us in this world’s future! 🤗

                  Thanks for the practice, btw! 🥳🤘🏽

                  If you find yourself in the Frankfurt area sometime, drop me a line and I’ll be happy to link you up with some really awesome friends of mine out there.

    I would go with hard science fiction futurism. You get to write your narrative future history of humanity and nothing about your choices are restricted to following the styles or decor consumerism.

    For example, humanity has moved into thousands of 35 km × 9.1 km O’Neill cylinders with centrifugal spin gravity, mostly in cislunar space. We renamed the planet Wild Earth, and only a small scattering of indigenous humans choose to remain planetary caretakers. The age of scientific discovery has long past. Science is primarily an engineering corpus. Our primary technology is entirely biological, and in complete elemental cycles balance. All phenomenon of biological nature are accessible to us with a few genetic # inclue libraries and a few lines of code. We grow a banyan frame of a building and dial in our colors and patterns on living chitin walls, while more regal structures of ginkgo trees last nearly forever. Biocompute is a thing with the synthetic brayn. All is accessible with a complete understanding of biology.

    Allowing your imagination to run freely in this space is therapeutic on a level that I find deeply satisfying, and dare I say hopeful. Getting others talking about this can create change. Futurism is anti dystopian. Many will try to call it utopianism, but I counter that they simply lack depth of imagination. The full spectrum and challenges of such a future creates a powerful lens for inspecting and critiquing the present. That is the best way I can imagine the experience of creating a space and the type of space that inspires positive conversations I want to share with others.

    2 sounds rad, but really expensive, hard to pull off, and might scare some potential dates away if you’re still dating.

    It’s hard to go wrong with 3.
