Competition: Design a Station: Aldebaran

Finished
Design a Station: Aldebaran

With the opening of the Kiast Trade Initiative, Aldebaran Station was commissioned to serve as one of the main tourism entrance points for the Kiast System. This being the case, it stands to reason that shops, food vendors, the whole lot of it is without information at this time! Your task, should you choose to accept it, is to design a location within the Station people can visit, explore, see, experience.

Entries should be 500 words or less.

Top three placements will be made as actual locations on the station.

Edraven Exotics(TM) boasts a wide variety of tech for sale at affordable prices, though its main draw is the cybernetics division (where military veterans with the proper paperwork get discount prices!), all of which were designed by Artemis Suoh-Werd'la. The shop itself is sleek and clean, with display models of tech, such as droid parts, communicators, etc, individually sectioned on wall displays, the actual products themselves in stock behind closed doors. There are several counters for questions to be asked, though one or two are dedicated to where the purchases themselves are made. The entirety of the store is done in shades of blue and gray, showing sleek lines and cool professionalism.

Aldebaran Station
Main Concourse
"Discussions Restaurant and Meeting House"

Run by renowned Chef Benn Nevis, “Discussions” is a large restaurant offering the same varied menu as his food truck at the Jedi Praxeum on Kiast.

The primary difference is that there is a large, well appointed, private room for dining and for members of the high council of Clan Odan-Urr, diplomats, and visiting dignitaries to meet if they so desire. As a member of the diplomatic corps, Benn is usually present to act as head chef when there is an important meeting.

The front dining area is set up to make the dining experience fun and relaxed, with holopictures on the walls that can be dialed in to show different vies of various planets or cities. The front wall, near the entrance, is a “Love me wall” filled with chronographs of Benn posing with famous members of the Brotherhood, visiting royalty, various dignitaries and friends that have come to dine at the restaurant.

The seating is comfortable and there are various chairs and benches to accommodate the different species found throughout the Brotherhood.

Space Ramen

Somehow someone managed to bring the one of the native dishes of the Keibatsu homeworld to Odan-Urr space and it has flourished surprisingly well.
