Year: 2024
Client: The Woolmark Company
Modulo is a concept born from our deep theoretical and practical expertise and research in aviation and transport design, combined with a desire to challenge the status quo of aircraft cabin interiors by addressing key issues. For the industry these include weight reduction, sustainability, and the need for frequent cabin refreshes. For the passenger it’s about wellbeing, hygiene, privacy and experience.
In partnering with Woolmark, we identified Australian Merino Wool as the perfect material for this project due to its next-to-skin softness, strength, innate versatility and technical benefits. Importantly, Merino Wool is a 100% natural, renewable and biodegradable fibre.
The physical embodiment of the seat concept hints at conventional layouts of First Class seating without being confined to a particular category. Modulo represents an exploration of materials, shapes, and concepts rather than a specific proposal for configuration and features.
