Abstract: A structural element for a passenger cabin of an aircraft is built using biomimicry methods. The structural element includes a generative structure, and a functional component. The generative structure includes at least one accommodating space. The functional component is arranged within the at least one accommodating space. The generative structure includes a load topology optimized structure based on a bioinspired generative design that is configured to enable the structural integrity of the structural element while simultaneously providing integrated functionalities via the functional component. Further, an interior component for an aircraft is disclosed that includes at least one such structural element, and an aircraft including at least one structural element. For example, an aircraft galley may include a structural component that may therefore, for example, include integrated wiring, plumbing or other functionalities.
