Steampunk Bedroom

Playing the MYST games always makes me think about how awesome it would be to have my own book world with a house full of steampunk contraptions.

So the Riven remake inspired this redesign of my IRL bedroom complete with steampunk aesthetic, vaguely antique electronics, and some random mechanisms.

Took me a while to decide what to do with the back wall and stuff on the dresser. I have a TV, game consoles, and shelves of games there, but that felt like too advanced technology to incorporate into this scene. I ended up just making it a projector setup and a rack of film reels. And more copy/pasted books to fill the remaining empty space.

Quick rough render showing how the bed platform mechanism works.

It occurred to me that you can't actually see the window in my final renders, so here's an earlier WIP.
