After the successful design of Signature’s sister company BBAAviation’s head office, Hi Design was chosen for the interior design of the new
Signature Flight Support £30,000,000 flagship FBO based at Luton airport.
Signature Flight Support is a subsidiary of BBA Aviation with 115 global
locations.
Luton airport is the main gateway for
Business and general Aviation travel into London. Handling approximately 12,000
flights annually is was important that Hi Design made a lasting impression with
Signature’s clients and passengers. With private conference, waiting and catering facilities, passengers
will be able to work or relax at the new facility with an expansive view of the
airport ramp. The new facilities designed by Hi
Design’s Suki Shocker will be comprised of a 1,572 square metre passenger and
FBO facilities. It will boast the latest in technologies for entertainment,
communications, passenger and crew amenities and onward travel solutions.
Suki Shocker head of interior designer
commented “This new, contemporary facility is designed to accommodate the needs
of Signiture’s discerning customers, both passengers and crew. With private
conference, waiting and catering facilities, passengers will be able to work or
relax at the new facility in luxury surroundings. We are focusing on providing a world-class travel experience
both in terms of the user experience, comfort and facilities. This
is a fantastic opportunity to build upon our growing reputation of designing first
class environments. An airport is still a workplace and demands a very
different design approach, so with this in mind I want to create an opulence
setting that is as enjoyable for its customers as it is productive to the
staff.”
The new
construction will be built to LEED certification standards as set by the U.S.Green Building Council and will
be completed in the fourth quarter of 2014.
