None of these explore a revolving ring / module to simulate some gravity? Long term occupation in space is damaging to humans without gravity. Let's start building a station that can be permanently crewed without the astronauts having to spend valuable research time exercising in order to prevent their muscles and bones from atrophying.

Other than that, Orb2 looks interesting.

Addendum: Can I contribute THIS to the discussion? https://www.buildtheenterprise.org/

While Orbital Reef does not say it in their marketing the NASA CLD source selection statement says that they are planning for some form of artificial spin gravity up to human scale. Possibly some form of rotating body inside a LIFE module.
