Comlux America, the Completion and Service Center of
Comlux, based in Indianapolis, IN, has teamed with 4
key industry designers to develop multiple interior
design and floorplan concepts for the next
generation narrow body interiors; specifically the
Airbus ACJ neo and the BBJ MAX 8 aircraft.
The
design companies participating include Alberto Pinto
Design, DesignQ, Unique Aircraft and Winch Design.
Comlux America’s goal in this initiative has been to
obtain designer perspectives and concepts to capture
the different cultures, styles and tastes of
potential VIP customers. Specifically, each designer
was required to develop unique rendering concepts
for the Neo and MAX 8, each with unique materials,
styles and concepts. Once these developments are
finalized, Comlux and the designers will work
separately to showcase these VIP design packages and
Comlux will issue the concept books to potential
future customers to help promoting one another in
the industry. The timeline of these concept books is
on target to be ready to showcase early 2017.
“This
is truly a mutually benefiting relationship, and
something that has never been done before in our
industry,” said
Scott Meyer
CEO, Comlux America. “Comlux has a true admiration
for all our industry designers and we were lucky
enough to have these few key designers partner with
us on this unique idea for next generation
aircraft,” continued Meyer. “Comlux recognizes that
every client has different tastes and styles;
therefore by partnering with these 4 design
companies and working together in this unique way,
both Comlux and the designers can uniquely progress
opportunities and prospects worldwide while
fostering innovation for all clientele.”
Linda Pinto,
CEO Alberto Pinto Design said” Alberto Pinto Design
Paris is proud to join Comlux’s refined selection of
aircraft interior designers. Comlux’s vision is not
only about “comfort and luxury” (Comlux), but also
completion and luxury. We thus consider this a great
opportunity to introduce more people to Pinto’s
interior design world. For more than 45 years, we
have been dedicated to luxury residences, hotels and
yachts, and since 1998, to VIP aircraft.” Yves
Pickardt, head of aircraft interiors added: “The
synergy between one of the best completion centers
and one of the best interior design agencies will,
without a doubt, usher in a new era in VIP
aviation.”
Howard Guy,
CEO DesignQ said “Design Q is excited about the
partnership with Comlux on their Airbus ACJ neo and
the BBJ MAX 8 aircraft programs. With Comlux’s
capabilities and Design Q’s vision of the best
customer experience, together we can lift the design
signature of an aircraft to suit the exact needs of
each VIP customer.” He added: "Design Q focus on
invention and excellence so it will be great to see
some revolution and surprise in these great
aircraft! “
Warja Borges,
Owner Unique Aircraft said “Unique Aircraft is
excited to be part of this forward-looking and
customer-oriented program initiated by Comlux. The
presentation book will be a beautiful tool to show
the interior capabilities and options of
customization for the next generation of narrow body
aircraft. For this book in particular I designed
various VIP cabin interior looks to inspire the
customers to create their own Unique Aircraft.”
Jim Dixon,
Head of Aviation Winch Design said “The next
generation NEO and MAX aircraft represent a
fantastic opportunity for owners to be at the
forefront of VIP aviation. With the wealth of Comlux

expectations in creating unique designs with a very
