Salon of the LZ 129 Hindenburg

The design of the interior of the Hindenburg was impressively simple and elegant. The aluminium furniture by the famous architect and designer Fritz August Breuhaus de Groot was characterised by stylish modernity. Its lightweight structure also had a functional purpose. The walls of the airship were covered with balloon silk. The artist Otto Arpke decorated all of the social rooms with wall paintings using a complicated spraying technique.
