According to the Germany/China-based studio Lang-Ching is a bold combination of traditional Chinese aesthetics and modern yacht design ideas. <img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/269238/image/large-28e699dd7fb4cbf7e582fd30c8d39b59.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/269238">“The name Lang-Ching, Chinese written as 朗清舸, comes from a piece of well-known Chinese calligraphy work Lantingji Xu (兰亭集序/"Orchid Pavilion Preface"), which was written in the fourth century AD about a elegant party with celebrities. The word of the name refers to an ideal cosy state of clear weather and smooth wind,” explained designer Chong Wu. <img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/269234/image/large-6255436f84a73074fd71b980199033e9.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/269234"><img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/269237/image/large-8459f433b656a985cd21448a7cc9b4db.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/269237"><img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/269250/image/large-264c54fdacb3c8b0463e68c487eab2bd.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/269250">Lang-Ching provides her owner with spacious and transparent spaces for entertaining and relaxing onboard. The inspiration behind her design comes from the architecture and landscape of Chinese gardens and the belief of Taoism where humans and animals should live in balance in the universe. <img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/269239/image/large-9b25bf7462ce12844314ee525170fd98.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/269239"><img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/269240/image/large-db363695a27f8db2c222a0cd1767854b.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/269240"><img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/269241/image/large-dfcb6b9fc0e621251f531c2194463250.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/269241">The design of Lang-Ching is inspired by the elements which make up a Chinese garden such as a pavilion, teahouse, flowing water, folding screens, potted plants and window grilles.

There is the opportunity to lounge at her pool, or get in a workout at her gym, as well as relaxing in her spacious beach club area. Guests can make use of her large tender and toy garage and there is even the option to land and store a helicopter, with a dedicated hangar.<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/265336/image/large-1de014551e24c171e36348efb417b848.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/265336">“We might be biassed, but we think she turned out rather sexy!” concluded Christian Leyk. “It would be up to her future owner whether or not to add a matching tender, but something featuring polished aluminium and rivets and a repurposed aircraft engine would certainly look great alongside her!”<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/265331/image/large-eec01816324c40cffc1c330691f659d6.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/265331">

When it comes to explorer yachts, the amount of space those items take is very large, and could be replaced to provide extra living areas and more comfort to the guests” said designer <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/6653" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Jay Aberdoni Yacht Design (Company)">Jay Aberdoni</a>.<iframe width="640" height="360" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/Xma6gbqtrBw?&amp;wmode=opaque" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen="" class="fr-draggable"></iframe>The yacht Prelude draws upon a rare mix between the proportions of a research vessel, with the minimalist and elegant lines of a superyacht.

<a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/6653" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Jay Aberdoni Yacht Design (Company)">Jay Aberdoni</a> has unveiled the renderings for his new elegant 83-metre superyacht concept, Dust. The dynamic design is sculpted from ‘fearless shapes’ and silhouettes and is the second independently designed yacht by the Spain-based designer.<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/231800/image/large-66088fc193b4d053c32b354c3424c5fa.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/231800">The superyacht Dust is characterised by her sleek exterior design with long flowing lines from bow to stern that highlight her streamlined profile. <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/6653" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Jay Aberdoni Yacht Design (Company)">Jay Aberdoni</a> describes this silhouette as ‘stardust behind a comet’ as she leaves a trail of desire wherever she wishes to go.&nbsp;<a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/6653" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Jay Aberdoni Yacht Design (Company)">Jay Aberdoni</a> is no stranger to yacht design and has been in the industry for around ten years working with some of the biggest names in the industry. His style takes inspiration from architecture and automotives to create clean flowing reflections in all his work.<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/231802/image/large-6a038259280e8e113c1214196740fd3b.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/231802">“Dust is undeniably a sporty looking superyacht,” says designer <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/6653" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Jay Aberdoni Yacht Design (Company)">Jay Aberdoni</a>. “She uses a mix of styles which could be found in sports cars, with a touch of inspiration coming from architecture and the gentle, elegant surfaces that you could see in porcelain pieces of art.”All of Aberdoni’s concepts share the same philosophy of design, and more importantly the same soul. While both his 72-metre concept <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Article/54750" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Posterity: The 72m ground-breaking new concept from Jay Aberdoni (2022-03-11 10:45:00 +0100)">Posterity</a>, and the 83-metre Dust, both have low bulwarks and an extensive use of glass; they have very different personalities. <img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/231809/image/large-45309d10f423345eb1d93f2f4fb0cf1c.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/231809">“Where <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Article/54750" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Posterity: The 72m ground-breaking new concept from Jay Aberdoni (2022-03-11 10:45:00 +0100)">Posterity</a> is a more gentle looking yacht, Dust is striking; with sharp edges that run along the superstructure, giving that effect of thin decks. She also has one more deck than <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Article/54750" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Posterity: The 72m ground-breaking new concept from Jay Aberdoni (2022-03-11 10:45:00 +0100)">Posterity</a> which is dedicated to the wheelhouse.”&nbsp;There is a constant connection between her indoor and outdoor spaces with low glass bulwarks that provide unparalleled views throughout. Her wheelhouse has also been cleverly disguised with an inclined windscreen, much like a sports car, to blend with her superstructure. This unique characteristic creates the look of continuity with reflections and shadows. <img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/231810/image/large-b2861d73431c7098c9683a18c5ce9c4c.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/231810">A clear vision was created with Dust, and that was to create an elegant yet luxurious yacht.

The typical domes in the mast have been replaced with flat panel satellite antennas integrated into the superstructure. This feature avoids the large mast structure usually seen on yachts and gives her a much sleeker appearance.<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/231806/image/large-f656bbebfc4560b394dd630b5c369e36.jpeg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/231806">Dust’s interior is also one to marvel at, with Aberdoni exceeding expectations once again. The entrance to Dust leads to a spiral staircase with a curved LED screen serving as a backdrop. The images displayed are in line with the rest of her interior to create a calm and relaxing mood for guests onboard.Her staircase is located in the centre of her overhanging balcony that seamlessly connects to her main deck, saloon, beach club and terrace to give the illusion of double height ceilings. Her interior as a whole has been designed around the theme of Zen, with a simple and minimalistic approach and neutral, natural colours.<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/231808/image/large-79b36c35c7e5175fdb136f69d5354669.jpeg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/231808"><img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/231807/image/large-7de17e42aa02ba05efed42d764811e07.jpeg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/231807">The forward-looking saloon of Dust is surrounded by sliding glass doors to optimise the space and extend the views. This gives guests the option of lounging in an open terrace with direct access to the sun or an enclosed refreshing saloon when shade is required.Read: <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Article/54750" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Posterity: The 72m ground-breaking new concept from Jay Aberdoni (2022-03-11 10:45:00 +0100)">Posterity: The 72m boundary-breaking new concept from Jay Aberdoni</a>Dust is able to host up to 16 guests across eight luxurious staterooms, seven of which are located on the main deck with direct access to the main saloon.

The aft terrace of the upper deck is only accessible from the owner’s suite with cul-de-sac corridors to ensure ultimate privacy. <img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/231804/image/large-2c06db7561c632c3060d9d20ade63745.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/231804"><a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/6653" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Jay Aberdoni Yacht Design (Company)">Jay Aberdoni</a> likes to break boundaries with his designs and Dust is no exception to this rule.

Exclusive first look at the 83m superyacht concept Dust by Jay Aberdoni

SYT takes an exclusive first look at Jay Aberdoni’s new elegant 83m superyacht concept, Dust.

<a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/6653" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Jay Aberdoni Yacht Design (Company)">Jay Aberdoni</a> has lifted the lid on his new 72-metre yacht concept, Posterity. The ground-breaking design is modern, yet timeless and brings a new way of living to yachting. She is the first independently designed yacht by <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/6653" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Jay Aberdoni Yacht Design (Company)">Jay Aberdoni</a>, and she breaks away from tradition by creating sweeping views through the elimination of walls to create space to breathe.<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/219752/image/large-180a3dd1aaf93fef66b363c70aa51e2c.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/219752">Posterity is able to steal space and transform it into something different with its open floor plan and glass bulwarks. Her sleek exterior design is highlighted with the twin lines in wave flowing form along her streamlined profile. This feature alone makes her a standout yacht with others within the same class. Minimalism is a must for <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/6653" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Jay Aberdoni Yacht Design (Company)">Aberdoni</a>, “I prefer few lines, to keep the design simple in profile, and complex surfaces to give three dimensionality to the design. I enjoy playing with shadows and reflections rather than paint and flat faces.<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/219755/image/large-7b5b8cc4c24a2516cc2aabb209fb2a66.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/219755"><img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/219756/image/large-fc8e986f63e5331004a4a02a94f2415b.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/219756"><a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/6653" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Jay Aberdoni Yacht Design (Company)">Aberdoni</a>, who has been in the yachting industry for around ten years, started working with British studio <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/6424" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Ker Yacht Design (Company)">Ker Yacht Design and Engineering</a> before joining <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/1124" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Lobanov Design (Company)">Lobanov Design</a> in Barcelona. His more recent ventures have been with <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/3025" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Alberto Mancini Yacht Design (Company)">Alberto Mancini Yacht Design</a>, in Monaco.“There is always a lot of talk about how to approach the design of a yacht, as if it was a house or a vehicle. The truth is that a yacht, literally, is both. When I design a yacht, I take a lot of inspiration from architecture. I try to come up with beautiful areas that define the interior space. When it comes to the exterior, I treat the surfacing with the same care as they do in the car design industry, playing with twisting shapes, creating nice and flowing reflections.”The 72-metre concept avoids a hardtop in order to maintain her low minimal profile whilst still being able to escape the sun. Posterity features an electronically deployed arched shade that slides through the rails and into the teak and can extend as far as the guests would like.<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/219763/image/large-72473ab6764fc454d331270613497567.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/219763">Posterity breathes open air, and the owner can enjoy it too with a private terrace, furnished with tasteful Minotti furniture. The resting area, like much of the innovative yacht, is surrounded by full height sliding glass windows that give the opportunity to create a grand open space. She blends seamlessly with her surroundings as her fading pattern is reminiscent of the colours of the sky.<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/219764/image/large-2ae573d5485355c88e770d292cdbab2a.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/219764"><img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/219765/image/large-65f86624741b5251de5dadea0219575e.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/219765">The main saloon and dining area occupy one large space and link to the lower deck through a modern spiral staircase that dominates the room. But the key feature of this yacht is the observation library, a curved glass encased room located alongside the saloon. This room is undoubtedly the most special place on the yacht, as you look up at the cascading lights that are reminiscent of raining stars. Fold-down side doors in the beach club and a drop-down transom create a floating resort vibe with a sea breeze. The furniture is kept to a minimum in this space, with only sofas, a coffee table and sun loungers to distract from the wide vistas.<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/219758/image/large-86a10350ee983205d8bace372ca830d9.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/219758"><img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/219762/image/large-b184b404e1f166fb779896de4dc806d0.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/219762">The lower deck also includes a gym, sauna and tender garage, where toys and tenders are easily deployed via side hatches. Guests also board the yacht via side doors, with lobbies on the lower and main deck. The upper deck is divided between the owner’s suite aft and the bridge forward. Glass panels in the library, main saloon and owner’s suite fully retract to create vast open spaces or remain closed for a quiet and air-conditioned environment.“The design of Posterity is the result of piecing together my years in yacht design, where I have experienced different approaches for developing a project. I thought of it as a way to say ‘hello’ to the industry, and what a better way to do so than designing a yacht that represents who I am as a designer.” says <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/6653" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Jay Aberdoni Yacht Design (Company)">Jay Aberdoni</a>.<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/219761/image/large-3b07b9811066492c481d4015304e869b.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/219761">Posterity features an infinity pool on the sun deck, surrounded by teak decks that merge into the bottom of the pool, darkening the depth, and turning into a stunning turquoise pattern. A second pool is located on the sun deck and the aft deck provides sun protection and access to the water.Posterity features less decks than other yachts her size. The bridge deck and owner’s deck, which contains an office, private lounge, bedroom and ensuite that leads out to a private terrace, are merged to create a low volume, tri-deck yacht with a slimline profile. Aberdoni’s absence of a hard top also creates an open effect by leaving the sky in plain view.“I enjoy minimalism and peaceful shapes. I like Interior spaces that connect with outdoor areas and unblocked views to the sea. Posterity is a beach house to the highest expression."<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/219757/image/large-88c2d656227d9d94c4ab89f02ec12fff.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/219757">Although this is <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/6653" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Jay Aberdoni Yacht Design (Company)">Jay Aberdoni</a>’s first project he already has some defining features and aspects that make Prosperity stand out from the rest.
