Completion specialist Lufthansa Technik (LHT) and automaker Mercedes-Benz unveiled the final version of their cabin design for Airbus ACJs and Boeing BBJs at the Monaco Yacht Show in September. Announced by the two German companies at EBACE last year, the design incorporates a helical structure LHT calls a “dynamic” spiral layout, extending from the entrance to the bedroom in the aft cabin, creating independent “spatial zones” without monuments or wall elements.
The 16-passenger cabin includes a forward galley and séparée and lavatory. An aft entertainment zone is combined with the en suite private area, featuring an open design bath- and bedroom centered by a freestanding shower with transparent sidewalls. In the sleeping area a concave, upholstered headboard frames a king-size bed. The LHT engineering team has updated the design since its first showing, to ensure compliance with airworthiness and certification requirements.
