Dassault Aviation’s yet-to-fly ultra-widebody Falcon 6X was recently awarded the International Yacht & Aviation Award for interior design according to a Dassault news release. Dassault Aviation chairman and CEO Eric Trappier says, “This prestigious award reflects the innovative manner in which our in-house design studio conceived the Falcon 6X cabin, which entailed going well beyond simply improving the aircraft’s interior decoration.” WELL Design—a widely used concept for creating spaces that enhance human health and wellbeing—was adopted for the 6X interior. This sensory design approach takes into account air, light and sound and also plays a role in material and finish choices. The 6X’s galley area for instance, includes an overhead skylight, a first ever in business aviation.
