"In the distant future, when humans spend their lives in shuttles
traveling to faraway planets where they live in tiny habitats, it’ll be
important for us to decorate these small living spaces so they are
comfortable for extended stays. Ikea wants us to know that we’re in good
hands. The Swedish furniture giant is already thinking about how to
outfit these minuscule living spaces of the future. And, based on
initial designs, there’s a good chance that we’ll feel very comfy in
these future homes, thanks to clever storage systems, warm lighting, and
little greenhouses full of plants."
Via Esther Schindler, who wrote "Ikea gave a Mars-like habitat a
makeover. A designer redecorated a model research facility and now it
looks like something in the catalog."
