The design of the crew Wardroom for the U.S./International Space Station, required to support a maximum eight-person Space Station crew for periods as long as 6 months is discussed. Research techniques involve the construction and evaluation of a simulated Wardroom with meeting, meal, galley, exercise, and workstation facilities. The research shows that much opportunity exists to improve the design of crew accommodation and facilities beyond the standards accepted or specified for initial Space Station application. Successive future Space Station crews can benefit by greater attention to good facilities and equipment design. The introduction of appropriate innovative architectural and industrial design features can help to achieve and sustain optimum operational efficiency and enhanced environmental habitability throughout the Space Station life-cycle.
