I never tire of checking out what a whole lot of money
does to a private jet. This latest one is from
Design Q, an English
design consultancy who has created a
VIP interior for an Airbus A319 for
a couple identified as family-conscious power couple in their thirties who travel as a family (
PSFK thinks this sounds like the Beckhams and I have to
agree). In designing for the individual client, Design Q creates a ‘Personality Map’ of the client's
activities, styles and preferences. The result was an interior that integrates three basic needs: work, reset and play.
There is an open-plan living area, lounger-style seating with a large projection screen, a bar and a central island
which holds drinks and glasses. The upper cabin wall have ambient lighting. A small room in the back allows sleeping
space and there is a meeting space for business. In the rear section there are seats for the entourage. This jet
interior like the BMW one we covered last week will be on display at the Aircraft Interiors EXPO in Hamburg.
