With several brands venturing into space to offer new products and services, outer space no longer feels like the final frontier.

One case in point is Axiom Space, a space exploration company, which has revealed plans for a commercial space station with interiors specially designed for it by Philippe Starck.

Space might be the furthest thing from your mind when you think of the words “warm and cosy”, but it was exactly this feeling that the French designer was after.

Starck was inspired by the weightless feeling of being in the womb, which makes sense because astronauts are basically weightless in space.

He was asked to design the interiors for the crew quarters, dining area and galley living areas of the Axiom Station, which is connected to the International Space Station.

The space station includes suede-covered walls studded with LED lights that change colour depending on the time.

The space station’s interior includes metallic gold-framed windows and gold textile covers on handles that people will use to pull themselves around the space station.
