Design Details
- Unique Properties
- MS Andiamo is a steel hull, aluminium superstructure sloop type motorsailer, exterior design and naval architecture by Ginton Naval Architects, and the interior and exterior areas design by Baz Yacht Design. She is under construction in Ark Yacht, Bodrum Turkey and she will start her journeys in Mediterrenean summer 2024 for her U.S based owner.
- Inspiration
- A new dimension to luxury motorsailer interior design. MS Andiamo... the lady of soft lines, arcs, smooth edges which makes her different and unique from the similar type motorsailers.
- Research
- Prelim design meeting with the client and the owner representative was quite productive. Therefore most of the materials, color schemes, prelim sketches for interiors were selected within the keel laying. Moreover, we can not underestimate our good cooperation with the owner representative, yard and the owners.
- Challenge
- When we get to know our client, we realised that they are into goldish and bronze details with smooth lines which may direct the design into a regular classic interior design. The aim was also to make a unique timeless design. Therefore we have blended "the classic" with some modern, sophisticated design features. Which made all sides happy at the final meeting with a game-changer interior design for luxury motorsailers.
- Realization and Technology
- The main idea was to make a unique interior design and within a couple of meetings with the owner, the idea of using arcs, soft lines, curves and smoothened edges. And never foget that this is eventually a sailing yacht. Soft lines and smoothened edges will be helpful in high seas navigations.
- Operation and Interaction
- 1) Know your client, understand their taste, way of life, desires 2) Colored 3D sketches for the main areas like salon and master cabin 3) First meeting with material selection at the shipyard with the client 4) Detailed 3D interior design with photorealistic renderings for each individual area 5) A couple online meetings with USA based client. 6) Final material selection meeting.
- Project Duration and Location
