This concept for the Calgary Flames is an arena shaped like a stetson hat, thanks to a pair of flanking ramps that usher fans into the upper concourse.

Sentinel Robot Public Sculpture/Comic-Con Prop
This is something I that I thought would make for a fun (and geeky) public art sculpture: the severed head of a Sentinel robot from the X-Men comics. It would be neat in a public park, however I feel it would be very much at home on a university or college campus as a nod to the Xavier Institute.
In all honesty I doubt any city or school would permit such a geeky art installation, so I think this would be a neat prop that could be parked at comic conventions. Cosplayers and geeks could get their picture taken with the fallen robot, which would be a pretty cool keepsake.
This art installation/show prop could have lights in the eyes, which adds a bit of flavor. The Sentinel could blink back to life momentarily or stare angrily for prolonged periods of time.
Maybe that fella who built the life-size Skeletor could make this?
If you dig this please check out my take on geeky landmarks.
One last thing: the Sentinels have to be in the new X-Men: Days Of Future Past film, right? That would be awesome.

Dr. Who Tardis Blu-Ray Case
The jewel cases would have to be CD-shaped for this design to function, otherwise this is pretty straightforward. An image of the control console adorns all the spines of the individual cases. The signs and top light could illuminate as well, there’s room at the top for batteries and a switch.

Ghostbusters Firehouse PC Tower Case
Pretty straightforward design. A lot of fun stuff could be done with the internals, like a Power Supply that looks like the Ecto Containment Unit. The graphics card could look like the Ecto-1.
