IKEA interior designer Christina Levenborn just helped researchers outfit the Mars Desert Research Station (MDRS), a habitat in the Utah desert that acts as an analogue for the Martian surface, Fast Company reports.
IKEA designers have been trying to come up with new methods to make the cramped space feel like a home while maximizing utility. The vision is surprisingly similar to what youd find in an Earth-based IKEA furniture store: adjustable stools, stackable chairs, and movable trolleys.
We tried to work with products for small-space living situations that could be arranged in a flexible and multifunctional way, Levenborn said. For the habitat, we brought products on wheels for mobile living, stools for seating, and table surfaces and stackable chairs for saving space.
The MDRS habitat is a 26-feet-tall domed cylinder that includes a lab, workshop, kitchen, and six small sleeping bunks. Six researchers often spend up to a couple of months in the tight living space, studying the day-to-day experience of what it might be to live on the Red Planet.
We chose to maximize communal space and minimize private space, Robert Zubrin, president of the space advocacy group that runs MDRS, said in a statement. Each crew member has a small bunk they can retire to when they want to be alone, but the space they share is fairly large.
The Swedish furniture brand has also released a collection of MDRS-inspired homewares last year, including a rocket-shaped indoor terrarium, and space-age-y air purifiers.

The Mars Desert Research Station (MDRS) is a simulated Martian habitat in Utah. Its owned by the Mars Society, and its the societys second such station. The MDRS is a research facility, and while there, scientists must live as if they were on Mars, including wearing simulated space suits.
One group of visitors wasnt there for science, but for interior design. Two years ago, a trio of Ikea designers spent three days at the MDRS to develop Ikea products for small spaces. As it turns out, they ended up using their experience at the MDRS to help outfit the MDRS itself.
The Ikea team wanted to know how thinking like a spaceship or space station designer could help them design products for tiny living quarters in the Worlds mega-cities. Places like Hong Kong feature tiny apartments, spaces so small it would make the average North American claustrophobic.
Tiny living quarters are a reality for many people in the world. The question for the designers was: Could they learn valuable lessons from or space habitats like the MDRS that could translate into private living quarters? Those tiny apartments are peoples homes, and they not only need to provide for day to day living, they need to be psychologically comfortable. The same is true for astronauts on long-duration space missions.
Two years ago, after they left the station, Ikea designer Christina Levenborn said It was very apparent that all the human values that we take for granted werent taken into consideration, like eating together, enjoying entertaining activities and, especially your personal privacy.
Thats not surprising, especially from someone who specializes in design. Spaceships, space stations, and research stations like MDRS are designed with technical considerations at the forefront. Its the same with the pods at the research station, and thats the way it has to be. As another of the designers said, Of course theres a lot technically that needs to play a big part of these pods, but more interesting is the fact that the technical aspect can fail at any given moment because of the emotional climate in the pod.
Like a home, a research station contains both group spaces and private spaces. The Ikea designers focused on making both spaces more inviting, more comfortable, and more practical. Flexibility and modularity was key.
They developed what theyre calling the Rumtid line. Rumtid translates as space time, and those two words are part of the theme behind Rumtid. Ikeas Rumtid actually encompasses four words: space, time, water, and air.
But the designers work didnt end with a new product line. They also returned the favor to the MDRS. They came up with interior layouts and design strategies to make the place more livable, more effective, and more psychologically comfortable.
When we first got there, the condition of that pod was a bit surprising. We expected it to be more modern, Robert explains. So the Ikea team set out to modernize it. Not with fancy, extraneous items, but with practical ideas.
They worked to create harmonious group spaces alongside a sense of privacy in personal spaces. Thats not easy in such cramped quarters. They used modular furniture on wheels, and shelving and warm lighting to make the space more home-like.
We tried to work with products for small space living situation that could be arranged in a flexible and multi-functional way. For the habitat, we brought products on wheels for mobile living, stools for seating and table surfaces and stackable chairs for saving space, designer Christina Levenborn said in the Ikea blog.
Itll be a while before people are spending time at a real Mars outpost. But these things have a way of creeping up on us. Successful missions depend on getting the technical requirements right. But astronauts are still people, and though theyre remarkably focused, providing them with some sense of psychological comfort in their surroundings is just setting them up for success. Its common sense.

Each week, Mansion Global tackles a topic with an elite group of designers from around the world who work on luxury properties. This week we look at how to use geometric shapes in your homes decor .
Whether iterated in a wallpaper pattern, used as upholstery for a sofa or formed into a functional piece of living room furniture, geometric shapes have a graphic quality that can lend a modernist touch to any space.
The look and feel itself can vary depending on the color and scale of the shapes you work with. Done in muted tones or a subtle scale, the vibe can be sophisticated and balanced; rendered in bold hues and large-scale designs, the effect can be playful and statement making. Circles, squares, octagons, hexagons, diamondsthe beauty of using these motifs to define your space is that there are so many different ways to goboth in pattern and furniture forms themselves.
To help your space take distinctive shape, follow these tips from the design pros.

Think About the Spaces Function
Geometry in a space can create a spatial rhythm, which helps the mind easily process and define its surroundings. Depending on how these shapes are used, they can have a calming influence by creating an ideal space to relax and unwind. Alternatively, when used in a bold way, geometric shapes can help create a playful lookin a childrens room for example, or they can create quite a strong impact in an occasional dining or entertaining room.
The most important thing to learn and achieve in any given space is the sense of balance. If too many shapes, colors or patterns are set together, these may not sit happily. This, in turn, can create a sense of disruption resulting in a stressful or confused space.
The use of strong patterns or shapes can create an impact and can therefore date or tire in time. Because of this, it may be best to keep geometric shapes limited to soft furnishings like cushions, curtains and the backs of chairs that can be easily replaced without too much disruption. However, we at SHH like to take geometric shapes a bit further and often bring them into floor patterns, joinery cabinets and even doors. We do so subtlety and carefully to avoid overpowering a space and losing the sense of balance.
Some clients want to make a statement or an impact, so strong, large-scale geometric shapes can help create this effect. Others, with often busy and stressful careers want a calm and gentle environment to come home to. Therefore, geometric shapes can still work but used in a different way thats smaller in scale and softer in color and texture.
James Taylor, associate director at SHH Architects & Interior Designers in London

Create Balance
Geometric shapes add personality and visual interest to interior spaces.
When styling vignettes, its all about the balance of the shapes and negative spaces that give the most interest to things like shelves and coffee tables.
I love to make sure there are circles, ovals and softer shapes in rooms. They balance out the harder lines of rectangles and squares.
Coffee tables are a perfect spot to add visual interest with geometric shapes. As they are usually balancing upholstery, its nice to have cleaner lines against the softness of a sofa and pillows. Also, a small grouping of a single-color objects work well for adding interest without it feeling busy. We love to use a single palette of black against a beautiful marble mantleeverything pops. Have fun; the best rooms always have a bit of playfulness.
Holly Waterfield, lead designer, interiors, at The Brooklyn Home Co., a development and design firm based in Brooklyn, New York
From Penta: Ultra-High-Net-Worth Individuals Gave US$153 Billion in 2018
Consider Scale and Color
Geometric shapes can add vibrancy and movement to any space. The impact can be a strong or subtle statement depending on scale and color. If youre looking for something more subtle and sophisticated, I recommend staying within a neutral color palette. Tone up the energy with vibrant, playful colors in warm or cool hues.
When you want to make a statement with a geometric design in a space, scale is the easiest go-to. If you want a more understated approach, small scale geometrics can take on a textural effect giving dimension and impact without boldness.
Have fun with shapes. If you want to mix different shapes in a room, tie the patterns together with similar or complementing colors for a cohesive feel.
Mixing prints are fine, but I would try to keep them in the same color family and play with scale so that the designs are not competing.
Whether you do an accent wall or an all-over pattern on four walls depends what you want the feel of the room to be. If youre looking for a playful, maximalist vibe, then I suggest a full room of wallpaper. If youre looking for a wow-factor statement or a centerpiece area of the room, then an accent wall would be your best choice. What matters most is color coordination and the scale of shapes to steer away from appearing too busy for the eye.

Happy 100th birthday, Bauhaus!
If youre an architect, interior designer or art enthusiast, youve undoubtedly heard of the Bauhaus School. Launched in Germany 1919, its become one of the most influential cultural movements of the 20th century. Still relevant 100 years later, its form follows function philosophy has influenced all facets of design including architecture, furniture, interior, graphic, and product design.
Hawaii embraced the Bauhaus principles, as evidenced by Governor John A. Burns work of the Hawaii State Capitoltrue to the traditions of Bauhaus in its use of clean lines, simple geometric shapes, and the openness of the entire structure. Other Bauhaus-influenced public buildings include the Battleship Missouri Memorial, the IBM Building, the original Kahala Hilton and Apartments, and the East West Center. Bauhaus design also became a trend in Honolulu office buildings erected in the 1950s and 1960s, with simplified forms and minimal ornamentation. Their interiors were often furnished with Bauhaus-inspired furniture.
As Hawaiis exclusive Knoll dealer, CEI Hawaii has furnished many Hawaii businesses over the last 20 years with these iconic modern pieces including clients such as the Honolulu Museum of Art, Halekulani, Hawaiki Tower, Howard Hughes Corp. and Bank of Hawaii. Clients love them for the timeless and elegant, simple modern design.
Knoll company co-founder Florence Knoll studied under the Bauhaus Schools founder Walter Gropius, incorporating Bauhaus modernist philosophy into her designs for the interiors of Americas largest corporations, including IBM, GM, and CBS. Today, Knoll is an international arbiter of style and design, and found in corporate headquarters and global tech campuses such as Apple and Google, and respected institutions like Stanford University and Stanford Medical.

Black Friday has come and gone, and BOH editors have rounded up the latest industry releases that you may not have seen coming.
Jean-Marie Massaud: The Clayton Bench and Armchair
French architect and designer Jean-Marie Massaud is debuting two new pieces for the century-old Italian furniture brand Poltrona Frau (pictured above). Massauds uber-modern designs are clad in a tailored upholstery that will remind you of a time gone by. Inspired by couture craftsmanship, both seats can be customized in a variety of jewel-tone leathers and fabrics.
All in the details: The pieces share a signature weave that pays homage to the larger geometric forms of the two seats. The armchairs frame and the benchs pillow are both texturized by the distinct 3-D stitching.
