Retreat concept earns design award for Greenpoint
If a health and self-care guru were to commission a private jet interior they could do no better than Greenpoint's Retreat concept; a luxury spa with green plants, glass walls, concealed tech and an IYAA award.
Key features include opaque glass walls, terrariums, video monitors and a high-gloss metallic ceiling.

Washington-based completion centre Greenpoint Technologies has won the Private Jet Concept Award in the International Yacht and Aviation Awards 2022 for its VIP BBJ MAX 8 interior design titled Retreat.

β€œIt is an honour to be recognised amongst the industry's most esteemed designers in the International Yacht and Aviation Awards. Retreat is an original Greenpoint Design interior, and this award showcases the immense talent of our entire team. Together we achieved a timeless, elegant interior equipped with progressive technologies and luxuries inspired by a world-class spa retreat,” says design director Annika Svore Wicklund.

Hosted in Venice by interior design magazine Design et al and yacht and aviation design magazine Luxe et al, the awards enable leading design firms to showcase their work and celebrate the finest design schemes, product launches and innovation in the yachting and aviation industries.

Greenpoint curated the BBJ MAX 8 Retreat interior for a distinguished world traveller focused on health and self-care priorities. The Greenpoint design team focused on biophilia and wellness trends to create the experience of a luxury spa retreat that balances sustainable details and live greenery with advanced technology concealed discreetly within the bespoke cabinetry. Key features include a master suite encased in gradient, opaque glass walls; internally lit terrariums; and oversized, outboard-facing OLED monitors displaying curated videos of the destination or views from external high definition cameras. Inspired by flowing water, the cabin ceiling features a panel system with a high-gloss metallic finish reminiscent of a river meandering throughout the interior.

The concept is currently a finalist in the SBID Interior Design Awards 2022.
