1950s
1950s is a style in the BEE2 created by Carl Kenner and TeamSpen210. It is Aperture Science from the 1950s, like in the later parts of the chapter The Fall in Portal 2. This is when they tested repulsion gel. Since there were no Faith Plates in the 1950s, they are replaced with large blocks of repulsion gel which launch you to a fixed spot and cannot be washed off. Most, if not all, walls are green, and modern test elements are brown. Stairs which have connections are gratings, and buttons are recessed into the ground.

- This is when they tested on astronauts and celebrity volunteers.
- This decade used lots of green walls, and brown things.
- Gel replaces faith plates.
- Modern items are brown in this style.
- Note: 1950s buttons are embedded and can conflict with things under them, and stairs are unpaintable, use alternate versions if this causes problems.
In the 50s they are rich and famous, without any scandals, so celebrities volunteer for testing and are driven up in limos. They liked the colours green and brown, and even where they didn't want brown, things are rusting that colour. Walls are made from more slightly more consistent materials, not just pieced together as much from whatever happened to be lying around. Buttons are embedded in holes in the ground. Orange neon lights are still used often. The offices look fancy but have old equipment like typewriters, and Cave is looking young. Blue gel is the new big thing and they talk about it and have signs about it more. And Cave is more friendly.
