Yesterday we had our last interiors team meeting. We’ve spent 10 weeks filling the house with colours, ideas and prototypes. So great to celebrate together.

Went to the @MartianHouse yesterday:

Our interiors team have spent the last 10 weeks filling our @MartianHouse with colours, ideas and prototypes. Here is an article about what they made amp.theguardian.com/environment/20…

‘There is a “Martian guitar” manufactured out of recycled pieces of wood and metal with an amp fashioned from a coffee pot.’ amp.theguardian.com/environment/20…

Today is the LAST chance to take part in Building a Martian House. We are running a free workshop in Mshed Studio from 2-4. Followed by a last look in the house. Our workshop will be relaxed discussions around how we bring our findings back to Earth (see comments)

@_RosyD Happy birthday!

Ahead of our open weekend - we wanted to share some highlights of creations that our Interiors Team have been working on! Here, we have images from a booklet of glitchy earth memories alongside mashed up poems about being a first generation Martian created by @stockfordcas!

If you’ve not got one already, would you like to buy one of our LIMITED EDITION fabric patches? You can sew them on anything. It’s a chance to support the project. Follow the link to buy buildingamartianhouse.com/shop/

Last chance to step inside a Martian House is this weekend!!! Get your space boots on and go say hi
