Aviation in decor
Entry into the world of aviation decoration often begins with valuable memorabilia of past flights. But for some, the fascination with this aesthetic goes further and leads to a full-fledged integration of aviation items into daily living spaces. From real airline memorabilia to individually designed pieces, aviation elements can bring a touch of romance and adventure to any interior.
  • Aircraft trolleys as house bars: A popular trend is to convert service carriages that once stood in the aisles of commercial airliners into fancy house bars. With their built-in shelves for glasses and bottles, these carts bring the flair of top-of-the-line beverage service to your home.
  • Aircraft hulls as wall bars: Even more impressive is the use of authentic airplane fuselages-the main body of aircraft-as wall bars. The shape of the aircraft's nose, the swing of a wing and the thrust of an engine transform into a unique, conversation-stimulating point of view.
  • Galley container as a side table: The galley or kitchen containers that used to hold meals on international flights are being converted into stylish, compact side tables. Their original functionality provides great storage space, while the unique history of these pieces adds real character to a room.
  • Seat belt buckles as key holders: This little idea blends form and function by using an essential safety feature of aircraft seats as a clever and thematic way to store keys. It's a subtle nod to the world of aviation that is both practical and playful.

Aviation decorative elements

In addition to these outstanding pieces, there are some key elements that can form the basis of an aviation-themed space.

  • Aircraft-inspired furniture: Slim lines, polished metal and ergonomic design are the hallmarks of furniture inspired by airplanes. From ceiling fans inspired by propellers to leather chairs reminiscent of first-class cabins, this furniture is both eye-catching and functional.
  • Aviation poster and art: The glamour and nostalgia of earlier air travel are captured in old airline posters and artwork. Often showing bold typography, evocative images of airplanes and the promise of distant travel destinations, these works bring a touch of history and wanderlust to the apartment.

Bringing the charm of aviation into your own four walls

Whether you want to start with a blank canvas or brush up on your current furnishings, incorporating aviation elements into your home doesn't have to mean a rigid departure from your previous style. Here are a few tips for seamless integration:

  • Balance with modern design: Mixing aviation with modern pieces allows you to play off the old and the new against each other and create dynamic contrasts. Think of sophisticated wing chairs next to your section sofa or a modern light fixture over an antique propeller table.
  • Choose the right room: Some elements from aviation, such as. B. the massive fuselage bars, are best suited for larger rooms with higher ceilings. Adjust your items to the size of the room and arrange them so that there is a harmonious flow.
  • Personal collection: If you have your own collection of aviation articles, they should be the focus. Group the items into thematic displays or shadow boxes to keep them contiguous and center stage.
  • Functional aesthetics: Make sure every aviation item you integrate into your facility serves a purpose. Aesthetics are important, but the nature of flying and the minimalist layout of space in airplanes make a functional design essential.

Set the scene for aviation decoration

To put these tips into action, you should look at some real-life examples that offer a perfect balance between style and substance.

  • Cockpit-Lounge: A bold and dramatic use of aviation decor can be seen in the transformation of a cellar or a cave into a recreated cockpit lounge. With seating modeled after the aircraft crew chairs, a wall sculpture with an instrument panel and authentic cockpit avionics, this themed room is a paradise for aviation lovers.
  • Loft Living: A loft with its open, industrial-style space is great for an aviation theme. Here, aviation-inspired furniture such as riveted aluminum parts and propeller ceiling fans go well with the exposed bricks and steel beams.
  • Multifunctional rooms: Aviation elements can be integrated into different spaces that perform different functions without losing coherence. An office can be decorated with aviation maps and old travel luggage, while an entertainment room can be equipped with a conference table with airplane wings and contemporary art that reflects the theme.
