So i am building a 3d printer enclosure that is a 1.2m(4ft) square box. The outside is made out of hardboard with 8 toggle latches to close/open 2 sides but i don't really like the brown look the hardboard has so i am looking to make it nicer. So i would like some ideas to make it less brown and plain and more modern/futuristic. All ideas are welcome image, drawing or just in text form i need some inspiration. Thanks for all your ideas.

this will require my printer to work(its a build in progress) but is a great idea i had not thought about this as i can do nice 3 dimensional tiles.

I would be thinking along the lines of #Steampunk. Rivets, fake leather, copper paint, exposed gears, guages, rope, etc.
