Engineers Paul and Pam Costa took three well-planned steps in welcoming their new baby boy into their lives. First, they named their son Edison – an uncommon historically-linked creative name that was also easy to remember. Second, to match the name Edison, they designed a nursery with a science theme complete with a bare vintage-style light bulb, chalk scribbled science formulas, and back-lit laboratory beakers. For their finishing touch, Paul had found an original Cray-1 computer on eBay after years of searching, and turned into a seating area in one corner of the nursery.
From inventor name, to themed design, to supercomputer furniture, Edison has one cool nursery.

So any idea where they got the WAY COOL lighted shelves? I jsut looked on the web and have not come across anything that looks like the shelves in this room.
Thanks!
We got them at IKEA. I tried to find them on their website, but was unable to this morning. If you go to your local store, look in the lighting section.
More pictures available here.
did you know how much everything Cost for the Science theme in the nursery
