I got fed up with bikes clogging up space all around my flat so I'm looking for a good looking indoor bike stand. More furniture , less park tool (I have that in the balcony). Hit me with your advice. The more crazy the better but I'm not really into crazy colors so no neon pink or any of that tld stuff.

How many bikes are you looking to store?
what about the normal hooks you just put your front wheel in and store your bike vertical?

Just bolt it to your wall and you are set. Mine is not bolted to the wall (I rent) and it is sufficiently stable still.

I have the two bike free standing model, works fine, looks good.

I don't have a any pictures but I made a decent looking hanging rack using an industrial strength garment rack and some re-purposed pot and pan hooks. The hooks slide side-to-side so I can tuck the bikes close together and get access to the one I need very easily. I store 5-6 bikes on the thing easily.
I have this one for my 3 bikes. Works well and is cheap.......then again a bike stand isn't really rocket science to begin with.

What about a pulley system? Some designs are quite neat and they require almost no space (and on the ceiling).
Yep, pretty much. I found one that was specific for bridal gowns and other long garments, which makes it tall enough. You'll want to put your longest bike in a hanging position and measure the height you need.
It works great - with sliding hooks you don't need to waste space maintaining distance between bikes like you do with fixed hooks. If you stagger bars up and down, you can really cram your bikes in close. Now that I've moved into a place with a proper garage I'm thinking about bolting a longer bar to the rafters and expanding the concept.
I have this exact one with a 40lb DH bike on the bottom and my 30lb trail bike on the top. It works flawlessly and I seriously don't know why I put up with having my bikes sitting around for so many years.I still want it to look good since I am going to use it in my flat (ie. no garage!).
Something like this:
But I'm interested If I can see some other designs. This one is fairly common but I want to know what options I have
Serious? I was a little apprehensive about getting one like this one but holds 4 bikes, due to my one bike being 36lbs. and all of the rest being about 20 lbs. I might give it a try though.
