I know the spacestation deck plan examples that came with Cosmo are circular.
I was wondering if anyone had circular floor plans for a small starship ?
Decks like the old 1950s space ships. Cylinder, pointed end, large fins.
Kind of like the picture below.

This is an interesting read too:

On the second link, I guess they don't realize hand crank telephones in low/weightless conditions will cause the one doing that to move so as to thump their forehead into the wall or their shins/kness into the wall. Depending on which direction the hand crank turns... :-) Voice activated microphones would be a better idea.
Thanks for the links. I'll try some on the first page. I'm not much of an artist though. I'll have to figure out how to do the wings.
edit, corrected Mr. Ley's first name.
edit: the link in this post mentions Colliers magazine when you click on the Von Braun 3-stage Ferry Rocket picture.
2nd edit: owch. The prices are high, 125 dollars for the 3-stager, not including shipping.
Highly suggested reading for sf buffs and authors.
Though it's not a 'small' ship, it is the same type of layered decks. There is no artifical gravity generators so 'gravity' is provided solely by the accelleration/decelleration of the ships engines.
I'll attempt to make some as good next week when I take some vacation.
That looks like a lot of work. From what I can see it looks amazing.
Oops. I forgot about this thread.
