Space Station Interior

Space Station Interior is shaped by the need to manage both microgravity and limited resources, so designers use modular panels and surfaces that can be moved or reconfigured for different tasks. Storage is built into every available space, and surfaces often have Velcro or rails so objects and equipment can be attached quickly. Lighting is set up to help with sleep cycles, using adjustable color and brightness, and materials are chosen for easy cleaning and low particle release. Designers in astro design often use 3D printing to create custom parts or tools on demand, which helps save space and weight during launch. Every detail, from the shape of handholds to the placement of screens, is planned to help people work and live in a place where everything floats.
