Talk about dreams coming true! However the Astrium project was tricky as he had to design for a plane that features both jet and rocket engines and offer weightless flight. Keeping the interiors simple, in terms of style and content, he emphasized on a design that will let the Astrium’s space tourists to enjoy the breathtaking views of Earth.
