Aviation

Many of our skills in designing yachts both exteriors and interiors are also suitable for aircraft, jets, helicopters and aviation design.

From international and domestic airline and lessor branding and identities to personal livery and identity, exterior paint schemes and interior design, we offer high quality creative, innovative design and styling from hand sketches to 3D photo realistic images.

Incorporating your chosen colour schemes through fabric, textile and material finishes we can work independently from the completion centres carrying out the work.

"This is exactly why I wanted you to be involved and make the final call before paint application. The changes you made are the difference between just OK and excellence. While I have confidence in Airbus’s ability to apply the paint, I was also determined to hold true to your design and anything you felt needed tweaking along the way. Working half a world away has certainly presented some challenges. Your ability to just roll with it and make it happen is greatly appreciated !!“

"The 145 was finally delivered today and the reaction seems very positive! Your patience and professionalism on this long journey have been above and beyond. I can’t thank you enough.“

"Alexander McDiarmid Design are aptly assisting us with the design of the Astralis logo, the external livery for the Boeing 747-400 fleet and renderings of the special V.I.P. interiors. Alex has personally worked tirelessly in this regard and I consider his work to be exemplary and his business amongst the best. Consequently, if you have any requirement for any aircraft design work, I highly recommend him and them to you."

"Alexander McDiarmid from Alexander McDiarmid Design is hands down the “best of the best” when it comes to design, his design work was absolutely incredible and extremely impressive.
Immediately from the outset, Alexander knew what we wanted but what he produced exceeded our expectations. He listened to what we felt worked and he was able to suggest ideas of what might work better and how we could improve on what we wanted from the graphic.
What he produced for both Moon Jet Group and AerMoon, was perfect and as a result it has added a lot more credibility and professionalism to our aviation related businesses.
I am very selective in who I work with and who my brands are associated with - Alexander knew what we were looking for and what I wanted. He advised us what graphically would work and what would not work, because of this very high level of professionalism I have got some of the best aircraft graphics for my business that best showcases our business but most importantly fits in with our high brand values of quality and success.
Alexander was client focused, which is nice to see and experience. He genuinely cared about what we wanted and what our vision from the graphic was. It is rare to find someone who is such a pleasure in working with.
Do not waste your time with going with any other design firm, as Alexander McDiarmid is the best designer we have come across in many years and I know a lot of designers worldwide however Alex and Alexander McDiarmid Design are in a league of their own.
From all of us at Moon Jet Group and AerMoon - Alexander it was a pleasure to work with you and your fantastic company - I am personally looking forward to continuing to work with you and your business long term and to continue our good long term partnership."

James Moon, Founder of Moon Jet Group & AerMoon

"We have worked with Alex and commissioned him to produce a livery for a VVIP Leonardo AW139 helicopter. We wanted matte black with subtle carbon-fibre touches and we have been really impressed both with the way he works and also the quality of what he produces, including the computer imagery. I would strongly recommend that you speak to Alex regarding livery and paint schemes."
