The world’s first private airliner incorporating a “bubble wall” is about to begin completion, according to London’s VIP Completions, which will provide the bubble wall for a Boeing 787-9 Dreamliner for the undisclosed customer. The bubble wall uses the contrasts of light, water and Swarovski crystal to create a relaxing experience, adding its glow to the cabin lighting. Built into the cabin’s lounge, the bubble wall creates the visual effect of moving water, and the color can be changed through a smartphone app. LED lighting on the wall provides the mood-enhancing color changes. The owner’s representative said the curved interior space “captures the owner’s feeling of the expression of flowing water, and provides an area that is removed of straight lines and immediately relaxing.”
