A capsule house with a space age design and affordable price
The baby boom generation has grown fascinated by the futuristic aesthetics of 2001, the space of space. Generations x and y were rocked by the combat to the lightsaber of laser of Star War. The Z generation, on the other hand, has become familiar with the diversity of the species of the universe thanks to Galaxy goalkeepers.
Humans have always been amazed by the starry sky at nightfall. It did not take long after the invention of cinema to see the first works devoted to space appear, as The woman on the moon (1929) or even The journey to the moonthis spatial proto-film directed by Georges Méliès in 1902. Each generation saw its collective imagination marked by the details of a particular film or series.
The imaginative fabric of pop culture is not hermetic. What emerges from cinema and permeates society does not stay on the screen. The references that we draw from the seventh art have repercussions on other aspects of society; And an aesthetic source that the cosmos could not fail to influence the world of interior decoration. It was in the 1950s, at the time of the race for space between the United States and Russia, that the design inspired by the universe-or by what television had made us believe that we would discover-imposed itself in homes.
Hans Uhlmann, Poul Henningsen and Eero Saarinen were among the pioneers of the Space Age design. Today, after half a century of silence, the world of interior decoration turns to space again, and the aesthetics of the space era returns stronger than ever.
