Put a Portal in your home

Portal Mirror Who would have thought such a cool home decorating concept could be done so easily? Now you can produce the same trippy effect Valve used to create Portal. Naturally we don’t recommend you go hurling yourself through the mirror. But if you have some free time in the week and want to add some videogame flare to your home, try your hand at creating your own portals.

In order to produce the Portal replica like the one pictured above, you need a Kolja mirror from IKEA ($29.99) and two shades of blue paint. The rest is pretty much self explanatory.  Just make sure you keep the darker paint on the inside border to produce the wavy effect. If you’re a fan of Portal, you know a second orange portal is required to get the full effect. Just put on mirror on the opposite wall and voila! You’ve got yourself a simple piece of videogame art.

I know what I’m doing this weekend.
