The new Zephalto Céleste Luxury Space Capsule was designed by French interior designer Joseph Dirand and is now taking bookings for 2024 round trips
Céleste is the latest Luxury Space Capsule by space travel company Zephalto, created by Paris-based designer. Set to take its inaugural flight in late 2024, the space capsule will take off from France with two pilots and up to six guests on board for each trip, with a flight time of six hours to reach an altitude of 25km above the Earth .
The balloon-shaped space capsule is roughly the size of the Sacré Coeur in Paris, made of composite fibres, and coated in reflective silver so that it can blend with its surroundings once in flight. ‘This silver finish allows the capsule to reflect these two universes towards which we will find ourselves in a way that is a little in between,’ adds Dirand. ‘Between these two universes, the terrestrial universe and the celestial universe.
Part of the design was to make the interior experience different from airline travel, enhancing the unique nature of the space capsule trip, feeling like a residential space while creating a sense of comfort, luxury and safety. Each cabin on board is created as an intimate cocoon that can fit two passengers, and the rotation during the flight ensures that each passenger can access a full 360-degree view during their trip.
