Design can be art. Design can be aesthetics. Design is so simple, that's why it is so complicated.

Wise, James A. and McConville, Kristiina (1989): A Cross-Cultural Survey of Personal Preferences in Design and Operation of a Lunar Base. In: Proceedings of the Human Factors Society 33rd Annual Meeting 1989. pp. 526-530.

This paper reports the results conducted at the International Space University during its inaugural summer of 1988. The survey concerned personal preferences in design and operations options for a hypothetical lunar base which was the focus project for the class. The results showed potential cultural differences in desires for dress codes, alcohol usage, calendar observances, and other design and operations procedures. These differences suggest that in the planning of future space bases, significant attention should be directed towards the special needs of culturally diverse crews to ensure that optimal habitability, job performance, and crew relations goals are realized.
