ZERO-GRAVITY SEATING, DIGITAL WINDOWS, AND AN INTUITIVE COCKPIT

The I. P. Proximus cabin’s ambiance is dynamically shaped by its digital architecture. The windows shift from immersive cinematic experiences to critical informational displays or expansive panoramic views, creating ever-changing patterns of light and imagery. Complementing this is the expansive Sky View OLED overhead panel. Acting as a lightweight, eco-conscious alternative to traditional skylights, this advanced digital ceiling envelops passengers in serene visions of the sky or any desired scene, immersing them in a sensory journey. Responsive lighting elements are sculpted to accentuate the rich textures and contours of the surrounding architecture, turning every moment into an artistic composition.

Central to the Proximus cabin is the zero-gravity seat technology. Far from conventional seating, these slim-profile seats are the result of careful study into the body’s natural posture. The sculptural forms and rhythmic curves in armrests and bolsters precisely target pressure points to achieve a long-lasting comfort. Cantilevered and floating panel architecture visually opens the cabin, creating an unprecedented sense of airiness. The design ethos extends seamlessly into the cockpit, where a patent-secured, wrap-around touchscreen instrument panel marries visual elegance with technical mastery. Its fluid contours and intuitive interface redefine the pilot’s workspace, underscoring Textron Aviation’s belief that superior design truly empowers both performance and peace of mind.
