DESPEGÓ PAGANI
22/05/2017. La empresa creada y dirigida por el genial argentino ahora se involucró con la estética y la construcción del interior de una versión de negocios del jet A319 de Airbus…
Pagani se asoció con Airbus Corporate Jets (ACJ) y dio a conocer hoy el nuevo diseño de habitat bautizado Infinito para la versión ejecutiva del avión A319 Neo. Hecho que tuvo lugar en el marco de la feria EBACE (Convención Europea de Aviación de Negocios y Exposiciones).
Una característica clave de la cabina Infinito es su ‘techo-cielo’, lo que propone una imagen en directo del espacio por encima de la aeronave, creando una sensación de ligereza y haciéndole honor al nombre con que fue bautizada.
“El arte y la ciencia pueden caminar juntos de la mano: esta es la filosofía Pagani”, afirmó Horacio Pagani, al presentar la creación del departamento de diseño industrial de Pagani Automobili, como siempre tan apasionado por encarar nuevas experiencias, como por volcar en ellas sus máximos conocimientos.
En este caso, a través de la aplicación de su proverbial toque renacentista de la mano del sofisticado material CarboTitanium, toda una manifestación de Pagani…
“Al reunir lo mejor de los mundos de los superautos con el de los jets ejecutivos, hacemos posible un vínculo elegante y transparente para los clientes de ambos. Se trata un nuevo enfoque para el diseño de la cabina de un avión que, además, satisface los estándares mas exigentes”, comentó el gerente general de Airbus Corporate Jets, Benoit Defforge.
El equipo de Pagani creó el diseño inicial Infinito, incluyendo su estética, mientras que los diseñadores de Airbus Corporate Jets' contribuyeron con su experiencia en el diseño de aeronaves y la compatibilidad entre ambos.
El resultado es un espacio exquisito donde abundan, opacidades, transparencias, metales esculpidos, distintas iluminaciones y donde, en todo momento, el lenguaje Pagani siempre está presente…

Airbus Corporate Jets and Pagani announce Infinito cabin
Gives wings to Italian style and elegance
21st May 2017 - Airbus Corporate Jets and the Italian hypercar Atelier Pagani Automobili are announcing a new cabin design for the ACJ319neo, called Infinito, at the EBACE show (European business aviation conference and exhibition, 22nd to 24th May in Geneva).
A key feature of the Infinito cabin is its sky ceiling, which can bring a live view of the sky above the aircraft into the cabin – or display other images. This creates even more of a feeling of airiness and space, truly living up to the name Infinito, which means infinity in Italian.
“Art and Science can walk together hand in hand: this is the Pagani philosophy. The combination of state-of-the-art composite materials never used before in an aircraft, such as CarboTitanium, with the typical design language of Pagani Automobili, has always represented our signature. Applying our Reinassance touch into the wider spaces of Airbus corporate jet cabins is the beginning of an exciting new venture for us,” says Horacio Pagani, founder & Chief Designer of Pagani Automobili SpA.
Airbus’ ACJ320 Family already has the widest and tallest business jet cabin, while being similar in size externally, and Infinito builds on this for even more of a passenger-pleasing experience.
“In bringing together the best of the supercar and business jet worlds, we enable an elegant and seamless link for customers of both, while bringing a fresh approach to cabin design and satisfying very demanding standards,” says Airbus Corporate Jets Managing Director Benoit Defforge.
Pagani’s design team (Led by Alberto Piccolo, Designer and Head of Interiors) created the initial Infinito design, including its look and feel, while Airbus Corporate Jets’ designers (Led by Sylvain Mariat, Head of Creative Design and Concepts) contributed their experience in aircraft design and compatibility.
Curves inspired by nature form a pathway through the cabin, as well as featuring in the shell-shaped valances and walls between zones – including one between lounge and conference areas, which switches from opaque to transparent at the touch of a button.
Décor is reminiscent of that gracing Pagani hypercars, with natural soft-leather carpets and a wooden floor contrasting with man-made carbonfibre in furniture and wall-frames - echoing the combination of art and science originally espoused by Leonardo da Vinci.
Sculpted metal features, mirroring those found in Pagani hypercars, feature in light-fittings and other details, while light-emitting diodes (LEDs) enable different mood-lighting ambiances.
Airbus offers the most complete range of business jets, derived from the world’s most modern aircraft family. This includes the new ACJ319neo, which will fly eight passengers 6,750 nm/12,500 km or 15 hours, the ACJ320neo which will transport 25 passengers 6,000 nm/11,100 km, or 13 hours, and the ACJ350 XWB which will carry 25 passengers 10,800 nm/20,000 km or 22 hours in its ultra-long range version.
Airbus supports more than 500 airline and corporate jet customers with one of the largest support networks in the world, including services tailored to business jet needs.
More than 180 Airbus corporate jets are in service on every continent, including Antarctica.
