American designer Sam Stewart sets out to create a sci-fi interior for a client that is fictitious. Letting the imagination roam free, the creative conceptualizes "[chairs \[...\] in plastic sheaths](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/aerospace-seat-spn01), a bed-dinning table hybrid and a bench press." The designs have a haunting and weird structure to say the least. This is met by [vibrant color hits](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/colorama) that soften the mysterious functionality and curious shapes.

The sci-fi interior is part of an exhibition— 'The Cryptid,' which is located in New York City's meatpacking district. As the location is relatively residential, equipped with a bathroom and kitchen, Sam Stewart decided to arrange his eerie works of [sci-fi interior design](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/yoohome) in the form of a livable room for his fictitious client.
