The Airbus Corporate Jet Centre (ACJC) in Toulouse, France, announced in January the delivery of the most highly customized ACJ the completion center has ever created. Designed around a modern Arabic influence reflecting the customer’s origins and tastes, the completion incorporates a variety of materials to create distinctive patterns, with decorative inlay on seat backrests and leather embossing on headrests. Valance panels feature a bright-finish satin frieze, while backlit ornamental glass is used to form partitions as well as the headboard of the bed in the master stateroom.

ACJC also created what Sylvain Mariat, director of the company’s Creative Design Studio, called “an unmatched television lift system,” hiding a 52-inch screen in a low sideboard under a smooth glossy surface. “The television display needed to be electrically actuated when commanded to appear and capable of rotating through 30 degrees,” said Mariat, “and we did it.”
