The lighting details on board are all integrated within the furniture and different materials, and is seen in almost every room. A particularly notable lighting detail is found in the main saloon, which hosts a large size backlit onyx/travertine book-match wall.

As part of their services, Promotech offers a unique plug and play solution protecting the breakage of the stone parts of features during maintenance, and are also able to offer installation. One of their key products is the slim led panel S.L.P., a planar light source where the light is diffused over the surface eliminating point shadows and undesired cone light effects typical of halogen or LED spots. The spread of light emission over a larger surface eradicates glare and the S.L.P can be monochromatic, dynamic white or RGB. The panel can also be shaped and drilled for technical reasons or installation purposes, has a thickness of less than 20mm and can be personalised to 3000 x 1500mm. Double emitting sides for semi-translucent installations are also commonly used.

Polaris boasts integrated lighting details for general and direct illumination. Promotech has installed the Luxyflat strip led in various versions to fit the particular ambiences. The Luxyflat series are flexible and easy to work with and gives a seamless light with high CRI. The series also come in various colour temperatures such as cool, natural, warm and waterproof versions. In addition to the lighting systems provided, Promotech has also supplied the first ever mirror finish touch switches with multiple functions completely made in Italy.

Claudio Giampaoli, CEO at Promotech Italia, comments on the project, saying, “The master bathroom comes with a great onyx backlit waterproof wall, lighting up the whole room and provides a great general light and a unique atmosphere. Together with the interior designer Enrico Gobbi at Team for design and the shipyard, we have been able to integrated nearly all lighting onboard giving the rooms a harmonic and relaxed atmosphere eliminating as much as possible of undesired lamps and spots.”
