Jet Aviation
Jet Aviation has been shortlisted for the Private Jet Design – Concept Award in The International Yacht & Aviation Awards 2022.
Mink is inspired by a desire to bring a contemporary geometric aesthetic into a luxury and liveable space. A modern, open plan layout draws on current residential trends, pushing further the idea that a VVIP aircraft cabin can function as a true home in the sky. This interesting dichotomy between art and architecture continues throughout the cabin, as sleek, straight and sharp lines are softened by tactile furnishings which add an element of contemporary elegance and comfort to the striking design.
Throughout, a light, modern palette is offset by pops of vibrant blue, which gradually grows in intensity as the guest moves through the space. From the entryway floor to the dining room carpet and chandelier, then the entertainment room carpet and ceiling in cinema mode, and finally the rich master bedroom and bathroom floor and deco pillows.
Sustainability also sits at the forefront of the design. An experimentation with material and form allows sustainable pieces and practices to permeate the design, such as the table marble marquetry which could potentially re-use leftover stone, Nuo flexible wood which enables an easier way to integrate wood and the use of water based paint to bring in contrast but to also reduce the use of wood, meaning that the cabin is not only contemporary in form, but also function.
The design features a number of statement pieces which allowed Jet Aviation to showcase specialist artisan techniques both within and outside of their own organization. As well as tapping into a number of contemporary design trends, the concept also focuses on the continued evolvement of the VVIP cabin experience. It considers how a guest might move through the space, how environmental considerations such as sound, lighting and layout can affect this, and how to build on what is already accomplished and known to push the boundaries of what is possible in design and material to create the ultimate cabin experience.
