Business is looking up for space station designers
How do you design a living space where there’s no up or down? That’s one of the challenges facing Teague, a Seattle-based design and innovation firm that advises space companies such as Blue Origin, Axiom Space and Voyager Technologies on how to lay out their orbital outposts.Mike

The companies at the forefront of the #CLD competition:
• #Vast is expecting to launch 🚀 its #Haven1 #SpaceStation in Q1 📆 2027
• #Axiom Space is planning to launch a two-module station by 📆 2028
• #Starlab, which is being built by a joint venture between #Voyager Technologies and #Airbus, is aiming to launch its station in 📆 2029https://payloadspace.com/payload-field-guide-commercial-leo-destination/

#Axiom Station is designed to look like a boutique #hotel and is expected to launch in 📆 2028. #VoyagerSpace aims to launch its version, called #Starlab, the same year, and #BlueOrigin’s #OrbitalReef #SpaceStation plans to follow in 2030.
While the cost of a stay aboard any of these outposts has not been released, expect ticket 🎫 prices in the tens of millions of dollars at first https://www.technologyreview.com/2026/01/12/1130030/commercial-space-stations-2026-breakthrough-technology/

The first #LIFE module for #OrbitalReef is a three-story structure, 8 meters in diameter 📏, a massive amount of open, configurable volume. #Blue Origin is providing the #NewGlenn heavy-lift launch 🚀 capability. A realistic operational date is estimated to be post-📆 2028.
#Starlab launch date 📆 2028: if the single launch on #Starship works, they will have a complete station in orbit overnight ⏱️.
As of late 2025, #Axiom is winning the hardware race https://newspaceeconomy.ca/2025/11/14/what-is-orbital-reef

#Haven1 launch delayed to Q1 📆 2027. #Axiom Space and #Starlab are planning to launch two module stations in 📆 2028 and 📆 2029 https://payloadspace.com/vast-delays-haven-1-launch-to-2027/

#Starlab will be launched to orbit in a single flight by #Starship.
#NASA spent more than $100 billion 💰 constructing the #ISS and has a $3 billion annual budget for operations and transportation of people and supplies to the station. The agency is likely to fund commercial #SpaceStations at a level of about $1 billion 💵 a year https://arstechnica.com/space/2024/02/by-launching-on-starship-the-starlab-station-can-get-to-orbit-in-one-piece/
