Is there a name for this type of built in furniture often seen in cyberpunk and solarpunk interiors ?

Ships/boats are often built this way for interiors. Same with RV’s. They’re just called…. “built in” as far as I know.
Fitted or built-it cabinetry maybe ? Even though cabinetry makes me think of wood as opposed to some composite or plastics that is what I imagine in 2077.
A “modular bathroom” is another thing I thought about, they are usually one formed room from plastics or fiberglass, I’ve seen them in skiing chalets.
Maybe prefab? I imagine all those apartments are built the exact same in a factory for super cheap and those pieces are part of that fabrication process.
Just the kind of fascia that screams ‘Sid Meade’ – may well have been inspired by sea vessel interiors. Seems there was a lot of this in Star Trek as well.
In the U.S. construction world, it’s built-in, or in-general: millwork, casework, or cabinetry.

Morphologist is an architect that reviews spaceships from his background of architecture.
He would know, and I suspect you would enjoy these vids.
built in is probably fine but “Integrated” sounds alot more tech/
“This downtown apartment comes with integrated nourishment and retail outlets”
Builtin is the term I see used. Vs sofa is like the 70s style built in conversation pits. Makes sense with all the 80s futurism that his apartment would be last decade’s furniture.
Don’t know, but real-world built-in seating like this in restaurants is called Banquette seating. Not sure that translates very well into cyberpunk tho 🤔
Not sure if there is a name, but a lot of this style was inspired by Syd Mead’s concept art from the 80’s
Bulkheads?
Retrofuturistic minimalism maybe?
I dont know why living in a cyberpunk cube sounds way more fun than in a concrete cube that i reside in currently.
“Integrated” is a term used in the UK to describe built-in furniture etc. An integrated sink is a sink with all fittings, pipes, etc hidden behind the walls or decor.
