Based on Maslow's Hierarchy of Needs, this Self-actualization Station houses everything one requires to satisfy, the basic needs of human existence. Each compartment caters to a different type of need within the categories of physiological, safety, love, and esteem. When combined as one body, the mobile unit can be taken wherever the user travels. This allows the user to have all needs met, thus allowing themselves to live at all times in what Maslow described as "heaven," or self-actualization.
