idea: backwards bowfront

[Mgamer20o0]

so side views? seeing it stick out?

if you were to box it in, the negative space between the curve and the glass might be enough for your canisters and other equipment... and a corner would be an ideal location.

probably not for everyone.

Put two really tall, nice and full, plants on either side to fill the voids. Maybe some standing bamboo. It might fill the gaps and add greenery to the sides when viewing from the front. Just a thought.

 

[mellowvision]

yup, I use lucky bamboo growing in lab beakers the same way right now. they hide my co2 bottles from view.

I think it is an excellent idea.

I dont think it would look very good. Bowfronts look better when placed the way they are meant to be. The main reason people buy bowfronts is because they just look cool, not for added depth.

 

[mellowvision]

placed the way they are meant to be huh? got me on that one!

I think people buy things for various reasons, you gotta use your imagination.

 

[nickmcmechan]

now i like the tall plants idea!

yes, i think it would look good now

Not quite what you're talking about, but I remember seeing a tank, while living in So. Cal. that was custom built, with a bow front and bow sides. It made me a bit sick to walk around.

whoa, that sounds crazy. I wonder if it was round enough to raise jelly's in... I've heard the get stuck in corners.
