It seems obvious that in a few years non astronauts can fly in spacecrafts just for touristic purposes. When this day comes, presumably first realised by Virgin Galactic, we would need to think about some in-flight services apart from successfully orbiting spaceships. From this we assumed some interesting collaboration projects in between brands that represent their field of specialties and Virgin Galactic, as a spaceline service provider.
BALMUDA
AirBar from Balmuda. A personal device for breathing refreshment.
It generates and provides air from earth just as it was to revitalise from a long trip away from the home planet. Likewise in airplanes, no smoking is aloud, but instead taking a break with AirBar is recommended.
Air filter is integrated inside the handle bar for easy reloading.
A variety of AirBars from different places and atmospheres of earth. The 8 air flavors are, Winter Sleep / Ocean Blur / Norwegian Wood / Amazon Forest / Spring Sprout / Sahara Sandstorm / Autumn Breeze and Summer Rain.
ABSOLUT VODKA
COS-MIX Cocktail by Absolut Vodka. A cocktail glass designed for space trips considering gravity free state.
Start mixing by placing your favorite drinks filled in plastic ampules on the circular cradle. The circular cradle rotates up to certain speed to create minimum gravity to mix the liquid. The mixed cocktail then flows through the stand and accumulates into cocktail drops which visually resembles water droplets in caves.
Enjoy your weightless moment. It will never spill before you do.
MAISON MARTIN MARGIELA
Ghost High Heels by Maison Martin Margiela.
Magnetics controlled by electrodes are covered with leather, along with flexible rubber and a steel bar. The ankle strap (+) and the heel holder (-) pulls each other together to create the tension of leg lines. Heel holder (-) and instep (-) pushes out each other at the same time to add more beauty. It transforms easily from flat to high heels depending on magnetic strength.
Space doesn't end. Likewise human desire to the beauty.
