A useful cabin design brief connects an overall atmosphere with the details that create it. The Rex Materials Atelier offers four complete design collections, each presented through a coordinated seat study, an exploded view and a modern cabin concept. Choosing a collection changes these views together, so you can compare a consistent direction across the interior. The collection name and its material preferences become part of your saved design and the conversation with Rex.
Start with the closest category and a clear intention.
Begin with Explore to discover the interior studies, then enter Personalize to compare the collections. Pearl & Walnut is light and warm; Cognac & Sand brings a richer upholstery contrast; Midnight & Carbon explores deeper tones; Bordeaux & Pearl introduces a more expressive accent. Choose the aircraft category that best frames your request and describe the actual model separately in the inquiry. The category accompanies the brief; the collection images are conceptual studies, not models of your particular aircraft.
Compare the complete interior before refining the brief.
- Seat: look at the relationship between the outer upholstery, inserts and armrests. Each collection shows its own coordinated treatment rather than keeping a fixed image behind changing color swatches.
- Exploded view: use the separated conceptual layers to understand how the seat is presented. This view belongs to the same collection as the complete seat; it is not a production drawing or a dismantling instruction.
- Cabin: review the collection in a modern interior setting. Consider the balance between seating, darker or lighter surrounding finishes and the window area, then describe which relationships matter most to you.
- Coordinated materials: a collection selects its upholstery, stitch direction, hardware and cabin finishes together. For a different thread color, insert, texture or combination, describe the change in your custom request.
- Embroidery: use the official craft references to identify a stitch or seat detail you like, then add it to your design request. Describe your own lettering or artwork in Make it bespoke. The collection images remain concept studies; Rex develops the placement and execution with you.
- Custom request: explain the finishes you would retain, the contrast you would change or a detail you want to discuss. These notes travel with the collection and give Rex context beyond the images.
Read the references alongside the selections.
The three views are deliberately coordinated: the selected collection identifies which seat, exploded study and cabin concept you are viewing. These are design visualizations that communicate an atmosphere and material direction. They do not establish the actual dimensions, approved material specifications or available finishes for an aircraft. Keep the collection name beside your notes when sharing it. Rex confirms construction, fit, materials and execution through the actual aircraft information and physical samples.
Compare alternatives with a reason.
Compare two complete collections against the atmosphere you want. You may prefer the lightness of Pearl & Walnut but the upholstery contrast of Cognac & Sand. Choose the closest overall direction and record the specific change in your custom request. This keeps the visible collection coherent while preserving the individual ideas you want Rex to explore. Use the same seat or cabin view for each comparison, and describe why the differences matter for the passengers and use of your aircraft.
Keep both the selections and the explanation.
| Part of the brief | Your reference | Context to include |
|---|---|---|
| Visual choice | “Light inserts, darker outer upholstery and a restrained thread color.” | Explain which of those relationships is essential and which you would be happy to explore further. |
| Actual aircraft | “We would like to discuss this direction for our aircraft while retaining the current cabinetry.” | Add the aircraft model, photographs and the elements you expect to keep so Rex can connect the idea to the existing interior. |
| Open question | “We like the appearance of the finish shown in the concept.” | Ask about the physical options and the details that need review rather than treating the visualization as a selected production material. |
Bring the real craft into the conversation.
The Studio also brings together official details from completed Rex interiors. Explore geometric quilting, a contrasting edge, seat accents and cabin finishes beside the complete collections. Add a reference to your request and explain what you like about it. Your selected palette remains the starting point; the reference gives the team a specific example to discuss for your aircraft.
Choose the right way to keep the design.
Save design keeps your selections in the current browser. Share design creates a link containing the same collection and preferences. Review your design opens the written summary, and Download brief saves a text document with your collection, material direction, optional initials, custom request and a link to continue. Keep that document or shared link when you want to revisit an important direction. Browser storage can be cleared, so the local save should not be your only record.
Send the context with the request.
Use Discuss this design to carry the collection and custom request into the inquiry. Add a short description of the aircraft, the work you have in mind and any surfaces you want to retain. Tell the team which relationships are essential and where you welcome alternatives. The atelier makes that conversation concrete; Rex reviews the actual seat, fit, material availability and final scope with you. Physical samples and project information complete the decisions that a screen preview leaves open.
