Kyle,

Your hinge picture perfectly matches what is done on stealth aircraft to hide features of the hinge from outside.
There its called a goose neck hinge.
To be sturdy they need to be somewhat heavy.
To seal well they may have multiple latches or are simply screwed down when closed. Of course that's to survive Mach 1.4+ speeds and vibration, so you might be safe without all that. Additionally, the gooseneck takes up a lots of space on the insides. There are car trunk hinges which work the same way. Goosenecks also have a limited opening angle.
