This repository of Soviet Control Room images is fascinating for a number of reasons. First and foremost, any time you have industrial design that does a very complex thing with an overtly simplified design, you've got my attention. Secondly, some of the images depict flat screen monitors; meaning these beasts are far from retired. Lastly, it's hard to imagine being in a room with so many switches, dials, gauges and displays, much less understanding what they're telling you as a whole.

Lots more to see.
