A nerdy environment fathers nerdy ideas. If you've ever been to the Perimeter Institute in Waterloo, Ontario you'd know that because floor to ceiling blackboards of equations cover the entire place!

Although some of us simply don't have the wall space or the theoretical physics knowledge to make that idea effective so it takes some added creativity to infuse science into the home. But here are some great items to outfit your living space for the next scientific breakthrough or for a great Christmas gift!

Via freshome, comes an Equation bookshelf. The Bookshelf really puts the B in BEDMAS. Not only does it encourage proper bracket nesting in your programming code but it allows you to prioritize bookshelf items. Unfortunately, I don't think it's available for sale or even exists (yet?).

Next up, as seen on The Big Bang Theory, the Periodic Table of Elements Shower Curtain, available, along with some other interesting curtains at Simple Memory Art. And Amazon and ThinkGeek. Slightly tacky, but who actually wants to sing in the shower these days when we have games like Karaoke Revolution and Rockband to sing in the living room? Shower chemistry is the new multi-task of choice.

Next is a 3d wallpaper from MIO. Certainly not as nerdy as the first two, but the subtle change of geometry from the typical rectangular plane wall surface is a must for the mathematically inclined. Not to mention that it's made of 100% post-consumer waste.

Art and Science is a big money merger. So DNA Art would be the most obvious example. You send them a sample of your DNA and they make a fancy portrait for you. Science explained here. Also there's free shipping in Canada, YES!
