Pimp my Jet: A mansion with wings

Take one Middle Eastern dignitary - add an Airbus A380 and a $150 million interior design budget - and you get a magic carpet ride. Designer Edése Doret is charged with customizing the jet's 6,640 square-foot cabin, and gave us a glimpse inside his sketchbook.

Doret designed a built-in case to display a model of one of the client's yachts. Wood details such as wall panels and cabinetry add texture and color throughout the cabin while maintaining a modern aesthetic. The custom-designed lamps in the lounge and dining room reappear in the sketches for the upper-deck desert hideaway, where Doret plans to invert them and hang them from the ceiling.
