Stimulating colors ⚪

The strategic color application in the FLEXHab training facility aims to positively impact astronauts’ mood, cognitive performance, and spatial orientation in isolated and confined environment.

In the habitat, the blue and green tones in the galley and crew quarters are intended to create a calming, earth-like experience which is vital for enforcing relaxation.

The orange elements introduced in the laboratory area provide a vibrant contrast, reducing the sensory monotony which can occur in small spaces over a long time period.

By introducing contrasting colors across the habitat, the crew is provided with functional differentiation between work, rest, and social areas, helping to imitate usual living conditions.

Soft finishes in FLEXHab 🌑

For the interior of SAGA's newest lunar habitat we have used beautiful Alcantara material to create a comfortable and tactile environment in the habitat's galley and laboratory. Alcantara's technology combines performance and aesthetics and provides a durable finish for this multi-functional space.

Over the past few weeks, SAGA has been busy sewing and upholstering this fantastic material to create bespoke interior elements for the habitat.

FLEXHab is an analog lunar habitat for Moon mission training, designed to create a healthy living space in extreme environments.
