Default Cool aquarium stands?

Does anyone have any links they've saved of cool/unique aquarium stands?
I'm going to be building one for my 80 gallon tank (48" wide, 24" deep, 16"
thick). I'd like to do something different with it than the standard
cabinet. I've given thought to putting it between a shared wall between my
office area and the rumpus room, but with my kids only being 6 and 4, I fear
for the lives of the tank inhabitants.

The "nicest" I've seen so far in searching the web is
http://www.briaquaticcabinets.com/ht...-n-flute_.html. I'm confident
enough of my wood-working skills to pull this off, but the basic design is
still the standard cabinet (with a fancy face). This may be good practice
for building a fireplace mantel, which is another thing on my list of things
to do.

Thanks for any input! BTW, this tank is probably going in my office, which
has (currently) a large L-shaped antique cherry finished desk (not a real
antique, just aged) for the computers, and a small TV for the kids to watch.
A joint unit that houses the TV and tank would be ok, although I'm not a big
fan of linking electronics and aquariums. The room itself is fairly large
(11' by 15', with a large 4' by 6' closet taking up one corner).

Clint
