This report presents the results of the NASA/AIA Space Station Interior National Design Competition held during 1971. It has been prepared in order to make available to those who work in the architectural, engineering, and interior design fields the results of this design activity in which the interiors of several Space Shuttle-size modules were designed for optimal habitability. Each design entry also included a final configuration of all modules into a complete Space Station. A brief history of the competition is presented with the competition guidelines and constraints. The first place award entry is presented in detail, and specific features from other selected designs are discussed. This is followed by a discussion of how some of these design features might be applied to terrestrial as well as space situations. The report concludes with a list of all participants.
