Seating Areas
Inside the exhibit are at least two or three small seating areas.
A short stool or chair, and a short coffee table, are located in each one.
The tables have small potted plants and books on them.
Books on the tables can contain stories, pictures and info about the station and its community of inhabitants.
They can be submitted by local artists and writers.
Visitors can read about the Apartment Building while they sit and rest near it.
Explaining the seating areas
(in the context of the immersive experience)
In the setting of the starbase, the tables are nature parks for residents' recreational use.
Traveling by the cable car lines overhead, the tiny creatures in the apartments go on vacation to these parks to camp and hike.
To add to the appearance of nature parks, I can make furniture covers from green velvet so the chairs and tables resemble grassy hills.
The floor of the whole exhibit can be made of similar-colored green carpeting.
In the center of each table, plants can grow in a planter shaped like a small rocky mountain. A tall pole can be stuck into the center of each planter.
Tiny zip lines or cable cars can lead from the apartments to the tops of the poles.
Tiny ladders or steps can lead down the poles onto the rocky planters.
This can give the tiny apartment residents an adventurous mountain-climbing experience, whenever they want some time away from their homes.
Wanderers from apartments (with camping gear) can be placed on the planters sometimes.
(Books on tables are not part of the starbase. In the immersive experience, it can be imagined that they are written for visitors, and get removed when time is unpaused in the evening.)
