Exteriors, interiors, passenger experience.

SERVICES

OMI is uniquely experienced in designing environments and vehicles for experiences not constrained by this world. For those leaving our planet, however temporarily, the obvious is often the wrong choice when it comes to design. Our work takes into account not just astronautical principles, but the lived experience of astronauts and pilots. We question what is possible when gravity is no longer a constraint and surfaces no longer have fixed orientations.

TRANSPORT DESIGN

EXPERIENCE
CMF DESIGN
ERGONOMICS
VISUALISATION

From space tourism, to inter-planetary travel environments, our designs seamlessly integrate comfort and practicality whilst retaining a connection to Earth. Developed to use space and weight carefully, our solutions are deployable into orbit, rather than concepts that live in 3D renders.

Here are some of the ways we can support your vision:

Habitat configuration and design
Exterior design and surfacing
Passenger experience
Interiors, seat design, and CMF

Aerospace Seat

Luxurious passenger comfort engineered for the demands of spaceflight

The interior of Spaceship Neptune is comprised of many individual design tasks. The seat is one of the key interfaces with the passenger, providing luxurious comfort while at the same time, meeting all of the safety and technical requirements that space brings. This seat represents the initial intent for the Spaceship Neptune interior in 2022 as part of the public release of the capsule, we are continuing to develop the seat and interior in preparation for commercial flight. We have a strong collaborative process with the engineers and in-house doctor at Space Perspective working with them to meet all of the requirements for space travel.

Spaceship Neptune Exterior

A visually compelling capsule built for the space tourism market

We lead Experience Design within Space Perspective, supporting all aspects of design for the most pre-sold space tourism experience. We work collaboratively with the engineering and manufacturing team to deliver a capsule that meets the requirements of spaceflight, whilst creating a visually appealing vehicle for the growing space tourism market.

Spaceship Neptune Interior

Redefines the human experience making space tourism accessible

We’ve had the unique and unparalleled opportunity to design the world’s leading carbon-neutral space tourism vehicle as part of our ongoing work for Space Perspective. An entirely new design challenge which is pushing the boundaries of human experience and creating an accessible tourism experience. The environmental conditions and spherical form of the capsule pose unique challenges to a vehicle layout that has never been designed.

Space Spa

A soft calming retreat with an amazing view during spaceflight

As part of our ongoing development with Space Perspective on the full design and experience of Spaceship Neptune is the one-of-a-kind lavatory, Space Spa. Tucked into one side of the capsule interior, the Space Spa serves as a solo oasis during spaceflight. Designed as the name implies, it is a soft calming retreat with an amazing view.
