Inspiration Photos for Astronomy Stop-Mo

Some 19th century Russian buildings. I'm going to borrow elements for the observatory:

I like the idea of it being made of mostly wood.

Inside, I want wooden elements mixed with mechanical/machine elements

I LOVE this coloring for the wood:

and these wooden panels for the wall:

I want the observatory to be cluttered and aging:

With inventions scattered around (maybe not this cluttered):

I'm loving the idea of basing the rocket ship's design off of the top of this building:

With the buttons looking type-writerish:

and the gears and whatnot looking like this:

And his cup will be golden goblet/beaker similar to this:

Next step is to start implementing these ideas in my designs! Stay tuned!
