You’ve often heard it said that people want their homes to look out of this world. For the most part, it is just a figure of speech – something homeowners say when imagining something heavenly and beautiful. But what if you take the concept more literally? What if you want your home to look like some kind of alien residence? Or at least, inspired by one? The idea seems a little crazy, but there are now more options than ever before, even DIY options to make it happen. Creating a home that looks positively extra-terrestrial is not out of the question.
Recently, there’s been something of a sea-change in the world of interior design. All those technologies that made smartphones possible, like LEDs and high-resolution displays, are making their way into our homes. Prices are coming down and creating bizarre interior environments is fast becoming a possibility. You don’t actually have to go to outer space to experience an alien world anymore. You can recreate it in your own living room!
For many people, UFOs are a big part of life. The idea that there is some sort of civilization out there, besides our own, is inspiring. On top of that, it is interesting to entertain the idea that these creatures might be visiting Earth and interested in humanity. Perhaps they’re taking pictures of us using their reconnaissance aircraft.
So, with that out of the way, how do you create an interior design that literally looks out of this world? Take a look at some of these ideas.

Give it a go – you’ll be surprised just how much of a difference it can make.
Install LED Halo And Strip Lighting
LED lights aren’t alien by themselves. But when you combine them in a halo or strip light, suddenly they take on an otherworldly dimension. 100W LED high bay lights, for instance, brighten up your rooms and look like a UFO is hovering overhead.Put Area 51 Signs In Your Kitchen And Bathroom
Area 51 is famous in UFO circles for being the place the US military stores captured and crashed alien spacecraft. Some investigators think that it once held real live aliens from the downed sauced at Roswell, New Mexico. Regardless, the secret base near Groom Lake has become a symbol of government cover-up and conspiracy. You can put Area 51 murals on your kitchen walls or even buy picture-paintings featuring images of the site. Or you could invest in alien-themed toilet brushes to sit beside your lavatory. It’ll act as a kind of showpiece, telling all your visitors that you’re a massive UFO fan.Use Alien-planters in your Garden
