#Lunark fancy professional#
We are not trained professional astronauts, our tolerance is much lower. Furthermore, the interior design and spatial organization worked well. The unfolding was possible by just two people and no heavy machinery – and in the extreme cold of the arctic. “The habitat worked beyond all expectations. The main principle behind LUNARK is its expanding volume, as the structure expands 750% after transport while testing it was a great success as it was easy to unfold and strong enough to withstand the extreme environment. Its exterior is tough as a tank while its interior is a cozy home with a sense of Nordic “hygge”. It unfolds from a tight bud to a large ovoid shape with a rigid carbon fiber shell. LUNARK’s form was inspired by the patterns seen in a budding leaf as it unfolds and origami. The LUNARK habitat shows what can happen when the architect steps back and allows the extreme environment on the Moon and the high arctic to mold a habitat around human beings. SAGA has one mission – make outer space a little cozier for future human inhabitants. SAGA is a Danish architecture studio that designed LUNARK which is a modular shelter that expands and becomes 750 times its original size! It was crucial to design a structure that would be easily transportable (to the moon!), have a zero-waste ecosystem, and could withstand arctic temperatures and meteor showers – LUNARK does it all, in fact, it was taken out on a test run in Greeland by the architects themselves! Studying space exploration is a side hobby of mine so this extreme-weather resistant origami moon habitat is one of my dream homes.
