Aviation Architectural Design - Cool stuff..

Have you ever come across cool aviation themed designs for furniture ,restaurants, Houses, shops, etc..?

what would you like to have ?

check this spitfire chair, the body is made from a Spitfire fuselage !! It matches the Aviator wind desk.




What about the house designed from a scraped Boring 747 - They have used the wings as different levels of the house.

I quite like that secretarial area, and the secretary Brian. What jet is it off?
Here's an original Hurricane dining table...

The secretary.

Could be the wine, but she reminds me of an Australian actress....?

The office desk is made from a Boeing 747 engine cowling. The company that produces this, MotoArt, makes a variety of items from a variety of different aircraft parts.

Will they supply me with the model and not the cowling?

I'm with you Big Duke 6 - I think it is cool.

Not sure about Spitfire components being wasted on furniture though, the subsequent Hurricaine table is a much better use of bits!

But the use of clapped-out DC9 and 747 components in this manner is fantastic; far better than aluminum pots...

Do you think I could get away with describing the "Secretarial Area" as a "ring" ?

as in :- "Darling, I love you & have bought you a ring to prove it"


I'm not sure it will work
