That’s got to be targeted toward a rich geek. It seems that the bathroom is very unassimilated with the rest of the design and breaks the immersion. A cool idea and it appears well executed. I would hope for moving objects and steam sounds. Steampunk is not my thing, though, and I would prefer a different theme.
Surreal is an understatement. I wonder how big the steampunk market is. I know its pretty good size in Portland Oregon but even this theme would really have to be marketing aggressively to find a buyer.
