qliché

Something which is either repetitive or "mainstream" in a new or unexpected fashion.

In art, when a subject matter is cliché , it is sketched too often. Likewise, when an object is qliché, it is something that may be repetitive, but drawn in such a fashion that it appears to be new. It is still equally as cliché in subject matter as it was before, but the chances of people noticing at a glance are lowered dramatically.
Art Teacher: "Skulls and cross bones again? Can't you think of anything new? Now, this! This is something new!"

Student: "What are you talking about? That's completely qliché! It's just the Mona Lisa made with coffee stains!"
