We talked about dna11, a company that creates personalized and original abstract art from a sample of your DNA or fingerprints, in the past when talking about geek art, but never pondered the chic factor of the pieces.
Apartment Therapy likes the pieces because they are unique to each person, but I like them because they have a sort of science-inspired flare without being overly geeky or unattractive.
They range in price from about $190 to $790. Do you think they're chic enough that you would have one made with your DNA?

The picture is okay. I like the finger print ones better than the dna
1They are cool, but you have to have a good room to put it in.
2I like them. I would get one.
3i like it.. with the right stuff in your living room it would look hot!
4I think it looks pretty chic!
5And it's super unigue and I love havign things that the adverage person doesn't have!
I don't think I'd get one made but it's very cool.
6I'd totally have one in the living room - funky conversation piece.
7That's actually really neat. I want one!
8I've seen better ones than the one pictured.
9my boyfriend got me one as a birthday surprise.
I don't think the pictures do them justice, it's the main piece in my bedroom and is really quite lovely.
Want to get a pair of the fingerprints for my livingroom, too!
10Hee hee. Used to make these in the lab! The side lanes are markers--the center lanes are the person's DNA.
11I use lab materials to make art so I like the concept behind these.
Heh, seeing this reminds me of how many protein gels I used to make. It's a cool process and I'm dying to get one!
12This is so cool.. of course, I have a photograph of my skull framed and hung in my house ( I contact printed my xray from a few years ago)
13So fugly!
14I'd do it in a heartbeat if I had the $$.
15It looks alright but I wouldn't waste that much money on it. Anybody could find a piece of paper and shine lights behind it.
16It's so... expensive.
17I love it! I think you would just have to make sure if goes with everything else in the room though. I want one!
18It costs way too much but I do love it!
19OMG that is so cool. I love it! I want one!
20I love it, it looks more like a sunset skyline than dna coding!
