From design to comfort: the key to enhancing the flight experience

eVTOLs are set to revolutionise cities and our way of life. The machines we saw in our favourite futuristic movies as kids are now closer than ever to completely transforming how we move. CRISALION's Cabin Design team loves the challenge of being part of this revolution. And while immediacy is ever more to us all, we also aim to give the journey the time and dedication it truly deserves.

Design is crucial to the flight experience

Aircraft design is not just about aesthetics and functionality; it plays a crucial role in the user experience. Every design element is strategically crafted to maximise comfort, safety, and the passenger's emotional connection to the mode of transport. When it comes to eVTOLs, which are primarily intended for urban use, this attention to detail is even more important. Short trips in densely populated environments demand ergonomic, intuitive solutions that minimise user stress at every stage of the journey.

Sustainable design: Towards a more conscious flight experience

We aspire to be a benchmark in sustainable mobility, and ensuring the utmost sustainability across all our processes and products requires careful material selection. To achieve that goal, we prioritise renewable and recycled materials with a low carbon footprint. This approach allows us to minimise the environmental impact of our products without compromising quality or durability. We also work closely with suppliers who share our values, ensuring that every material used meets our strict standards for sustainability and comfort.

This applies both to the selection of materials and also their performance throughout the entire product lifecycle. That’s why we are developing production processes that minimise waste, optimise energy efficiency and extend product lifespans. In doing so, we not only protect the environment but also provide our customers with products that enhance their experience and wellbeing, whilst upholding our commitment to sustainability.

User-centred design: personalisation and accessibility

At CRISALION, we focus our design process on the user, foregrounding the passenger experience to provide support throughout every journey and make sure every trip with Integrity is a unique experience. This user-centred approach allows us to design not only ergonomic, functional products, but also inclusive ones. By integrating the needs and preferences of a wide range of users from the initial design process to the testing phase, we ensure that every journey is accessible to everyone.

We believe that technology and innovation should serve the user. From the materials selected to the functional features provided, every design decision is made with a view to delivering a unique journey, and one on which the user feels part of an experience that brings far more than just transport.

Comfort is not just about space and materials; it is also about a sense of security, connectivity and ease of use. Passengers expect cabins that make them feel in control and at ease, featuring adaptive lighting systems, intuitive controls and seating designed to reduce fatigue, even on short trips. Features such as personalised climate control systems, intuitive touch surfaces and noise-reduction technologies not only enhance comfort but also make the experience memorable.

A multisensory experience that will shape the future

Ultimately, aircraft design should strive to deliver a multisensory experience that connects users to their journey on a deeper level. Colours, textures and shapes not only create a visual impact but also evoke emotions. Every detail helps craft an environment that inspires trust, tranquillity and, above all, excitement about traveling in an innovative, sustainable way.

At CRISALION, designing aircraft is not just a technical endeavour, it is a creative, human pursuit. It is about understanding that every flight holds the potential to be a meaningful experience; a brief moment in time that can shape positive perceptions of the future of urban mobility.
