Jean Liu Crafts an Art-Filled Private Aviation Terminal at Dallas Fort Worth

The Artful Life: 8 Things Galerie Editors Love This Week

Even travelers with elite airline status can be caught in the quagmire of a major terminal, with major hubs buzzing with the frenetic energy of security, gate changes, and subpar airport food. However, the private luxury terminal PS is changing that with a more tranquil gateway to commercial travel. Launched in Los Angeles with a subsequent location in Atlanta, the service just debuted its third location in Dallas-Fort Worth, designed by celebrated interiors expert Jean Liu. “We leaned into the notion of southern hospitality for this project,” says Liu. “As much as possible, we pushed the envelope to incorporate residential elements to truly make this feel like stepping into someone’s home.”

Located within a 12,200-square-foot gated facility adjacent to the airport’s Corporate Aviation area, PS at Dallas Fort Worth ushers guests through a private security screening process into the upscale lounge that includes chef-prepared cuisine and spa services. The Salon offers a convivial gathering area with a 40-foot bar while private suites allow for even more intimate accommodations. Throughout, artworks curated by Creative Art Partners further add to the residential-style atmosphere. Says Liu, “PS DFW is designed to be warm, elevated, and welcoming for everyone passing through.”—Jill Sieracki
