Barcelona-based studio <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/8386" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Atelier Cala (Company)">Atelier Cala</a> has unveiled the interior renderings of the 53-metre SailXplorer XV53 explorer yacht. <img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/390403/image/large-bfe424373b1e3115cb64440a64aca7cb.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/390403">Read:&nbsp;<a data-gid="gid://syiq/Article/64250" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Interior concept for 93-metre Mediterranean-inspired superyacht Waves unveiled (2025-09-17 09:15:00 +0200)">Interior concept for 93-metre Mediterranean-inspired superyacht Waves unveiled&nbsp;</a> The project has been developed under the SailXplorer platform, a new platform dedicated to exploration yachts, which was recently launched at the <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/7041" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Superyacht Technology Show (Company)">Superyacht Technology Show</a>. The yacht's design centers on the human experience, with the interior serving as an active support for onboard wellbeing, rather than just an aesthetic element. Sailing captain Dominique Geysen and naval architect Andrés Otano collaborated to create the design of the explorer yacht, bringing together practical sailing experience and expertise on contemporary yacht design. <img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/390397/image/large-78b0ffd2c26f98c59e3bb1fd8385a0c2.png" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/390397">“The question was never how far this yacht could go, but how well people could live while going that far,” said Arnau Salvadó, founder of <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/8386" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Atelier Cala (Company)">Atelier Cala.</a> In response, the interior is conceived as a regulatory system, where lighting, climate and sensory elements are seamlessly embedded into the yacht’s architecture. These systems are designed to operate quietly in the background, supporting circadian rhythms, cognitive performance and overall wellbeing without overwhelming the guests’ onboard experience. <img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/390402/image/large-753669518db64cad2d0255af48e26500.png" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/390402">“Endurance without human balance leads to fatigue, and fatigue affects decision-making. In an explorer yacht, that matters. The interior is designed to support the body and mind, creating an environment that enhances focus, recovery, and overall well-being,” says Salvadó. <img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/390401/image/large-4140eb77e2815c97408d2ba9cb07c697.png" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/390401">Furthermore, her interior reinforces relaxation, clarity and spatial continuity. Her main saloon is intended to be a space of visual calm. This space is defined by warm mineral tones, light wood finishes and soft neutral fabrics, while curved seating and detailing reduce visual noise. <img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/390398/image/large-7a0c6d7be411d1bcdbab698eb409cf06.png" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/390398">Her dining area is flexible, easily transitioning from a casual breakfast spot to a setting for informal gatherings or formal dinners, accommodating the needs of family trips or charter guests. Moreover, accommodation onboard is envisioned to host up to 22 guests and 15 crew members. <img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/390399/image/large-2483468705aeb2cd38a73bd497a9edad.png" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/390399">Outside, the SailXplorer XV53 reflects the modern explorer yacht identity, sporting a low-profile silhouette and a long hull, a compact superstructure and twin masts. Positioned between the expedition and guest areas, her aft deck features a covered seating area and integrated bar. This area also serves as a transition space where guests can gradually go from socialising to unwinding while soaking in the ocean views. <img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/390400/image/large-4654b5347bfddf975eb02dfbd9c9fce5.png" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/390400">In terms of performance, the SailXplorer XV53 platform is devised for long-range exploration missions, incorporating hybrid propulsion and flexible operational spaces.

Inspired by the Belle Époque, the yacht reflects the era's sophistication and refined way of life."Today's owners increasingly seek yachts that reflect their lifestyle rather than their status," said <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/136" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Ocean Independence (Company)">Ocean Independence</a> CEO Peter Hürzeler. "The <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/1556" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="SES Yachts (Company)">SES</a> EPOQ 36&nbsp;delivers exactly that.

The generous outdoor spaces have been designed to maximise the guest experience, while the interiors offer a flexible living environment. In the main saloon, loose furniture is paired with traditional wood craftsmanship and contemporary fabrics. This allows owners significant scope for personalisation, even during the later stages of construction.<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/400564/image/large-f3a4a613890d066a41292d76abb8cf15.png" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/400564">One of the yacht's standout features is a glass-bottomed Jacuzzi on the sundeck, which also serves as a skylight for the alfresco dining area below. Incorporating switchable liquid-crystal glass technology, it can alternate between transparent and translucent.<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/400563/image/large-8ffbc700a28713013153529d5d4b8015.png" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/400563">The yacht features a steel displacement hull, paired with low-revving engines. At the heart of EPOQ, however, is her renowned Fast Displacement Hull Form (FDHF), developed by <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/460" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Van Oossanen Naval Architects (Company)">Van Oossanen Naval Architects</a>. Combining the efficiency of a displacement yacht with the performance of a semi-displacement design, the hull reduces fuel consumption while improving cruising efficiency and onboard comfort.<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/400571/image/large-dc0b102bc8291654051f818c68f998d5.png" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/400571">Her lower deck layout has been standardised to optimise build quality while retaining flexibility for owner customisation. "EPOQ was never about adding complexity," concluded designer Benjamin Toth. "Every design decision has been evaluated through the lens of how owners actually use their yachts. The result is a vessel that offers exceptional comfort while remaining practical to own and operate for decades."

Italian builder <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/350" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Picchiotti (Company)">Picchiotti</a> has unveiled the first details of its 53-metre superyacht concept P53, developed by <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/5565" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="The Italian Sea Group (Company)">The Italian Sea Group</a>'s Research &amp; Development Department and <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/350" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Picchiotti (Company)">Picchiotti</a> Centro Stile. The concept inaugurates the shipyard's P-Fleet series, offering a contemporary interpretation of the historic Picchiotti brand, while remaining below 500 GT.<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/400402/image/large-629a01f1b1d53068e2ffcc21ae4e1e9d.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/400402">The P53 represents the latest evolution of the brand, signalling a departure from its more classically inspired Gentleman Fleet. The yacht embodies a more architectural design language that prioritises openness and flexibility, redefining contemporary living on the water with spaces that adapt to the modern explorer.<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/400401/image/large-2d914901251569fc76058ca561fd1aeb.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/400401">With a 10-metre beam, the vessel will be built with an aluminium hull and superstructure. According to the shipyard, the P53 has been conceived to combine generous onboard volumes with efficient operation, creating a yacht that balances privacy, comfort and long-range cruising.<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/400403/image/large-36bcc075c51630f0cecd5cfd074ecf08.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/400403">Outside, P53 is defined by a near-plumb bow, a sweeping glazed superstructure and expansive dark glazing that seamlessly connect the decks. Spacious aft decks, uninterrupted walkaround side decks and generous lounge areas reinforce the yacht's emphasis on outdoor living, while a resort-style beach club with fold-down platforms extends into a waterside terrace, highlighting a swimming pool.<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/400405/image/large-4a99c6acfa5d31b71e87d9f9800ad71f.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/400405">The relationship between the yacht and the sea is central to the concept. The beach club, folding terraces, generous glazing and continuity between the interior and exterior are intended to create what the shipyard describes as "a concrete, physical and daily experience".<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/400407/image/large-df6f37ceff582b3ba3416646a1eb6694.png" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/400407">Inside, P53 embraces a warm, minimalist aesthetic of natural wood finishes, textured fabrics and sculptural furnishings with floor-to-ceiling windows letting in abundant natural. An open-plan main saloon revolves around a floating staircase, while the owner's suite benefits from direct access to a private courtyard-style terrace. <img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/400406/image/large-daa53d1228baa068e244354e309f4f7c.png" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/400406">Designed for adaptability, the P53’s living spaces are able to meet the changing needs of the owner. <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/350" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Picchiotti (Company)">Picchiotti</a> has seamlessly integrated areas for wellness, entertainment and relaxation, allowing the yacht to effortlessly flow between being a private retreat and a vibrant social space.<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/400404/image/large-8354e2677bb64acf4a596db00ac68776.png" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/400404">Staying under the 500 GT threshold was a conscious design choice. This enables P53 to offer generous interior volumes without sacrificing efficiency or ease of handling, all while certifying guests feel truly connected to the sea.<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/400400/image/large-f8ca43db82233000306fc926c7ac9212.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/400400">With an interior volume of 499 GT, accommodation onboard is arranged for up to 12 guests across six staterooms, alongside quarters for 10 crew members across five quarters.In terms of performance, the P53 is projected to propel at a top speed of 18 knots and a cruising speed of 14 knots. At a speed of 10 knots, she is expected to offer a range of 4,000 nautical miles.

<a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/71" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Tony Castro (Company)">Tony Castro Yacht Design</a> has unveiled the 68-metre sail-assisted motor yacht concept Samy, developed around an integrated propulsion system. The overall result is designed to reduce fuel consumption, while maintaining the comfort and volume of a standard motor yacht.<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/399580/image/large-adb2289392555d842e3918aad74a060f.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/399580">According to <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/71" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Tony Castro (Company)">Tony Castro</a>, Samy, the ‘Sail-Assisted Motor Yacht’, has been created around "the most economical, intelligent propulsion solution" for a yacht intended to spend extended periods at sea.The 68-metre concept is centred around a system of inflatable sails and retractable masts, intended to preserve the yacht's exterior aesthetic while reducing windage, improving safety and minimising deck equipment.&nbsp;Her superstructure has been engineered to house booms capable of full 360-degree rotation. Moreover, rather than the rig being an added layer over a finished hull, the hull was drawn around the rig, resulting in a single integrated design.<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/399582/image/large-d8226cf8ece3276b81e996b545112ec7.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/399582">According to the studio, the integrated sail-assist system enables Samy to complete long-distance passages using significantly less fuel than a conventional motor yacht. For a typical Mediterranean-to-Caribbean round trip, fuel savings are estimated at approximately 33,000 litres.&nbsp;As well as this, solar energy capture and modern windmills have also been incorporated into her superstructure, forming “a coherent energy architecture across the whole platform.” <img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/399581/image/large-8487be49110570ec02b3d4f684f85dec.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/399581" style="box-sizing: inherit; border: 0px; font-family: &quot;Open Sans&quot;, sans-serif; position: relative; max-width: 100%; margin: 1rem 0px; color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-size: 13.6px; font-style: normal; font-variant-ligatures: normal; font-variant-caps: normal; font-weight: 400; letter-spacing: normal; orphans: 2; text-align: start; text-indent: 0px; text-transform: none; widows: 2; word-spacing: 0px; -webkit-text-stroke-width: 0px; white-space: normal; background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255); text-decoration-thickness: initial; text-decoration-style: initial; text-decoration-color: initial;">As for outdoor living, the aft deck swimming pool on Samy serves as the exterior's centerpiece, complemented by generous lounge areas, alfresco dining, a Jacuzzi, and a fold-down beach club with direct water access.Stepping inside, the concept is designed to offer the interior volume and comfort of a motor yacht, despite its sail-assisted configuration. By integrating the propulsion system into the yacht's architecture, guest spaces remain spacious and uninterrupted while maintaining clean exterior lines.

Amidships on the main deck is a VIP suite, alongside her full-beam owner’s suite.<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/398540/image/large-7c20dbf44a9650793545b9b01da6d978.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/398540">Situated forward, her owner’s suite benefits from his-and-hers ensuite bathrooms, a California king-size bed and the possibility of sliding doors which lead to terraces on both her port and starboard.The lower deck of Project Quest includes four additional guest suites, alongside accommodation for a crew of 16 across eight cabins. This deck is also home to a spa, as well as her garage, which includes a side opening door for easy access to her water toys.&nbsp;Moving to her upper deck, guests onboard Project Quest can unwind in her skylounge, before making their way to her aft deck to relax on her deck.

The 70-metre yacht also boasts a touch-and-go helideck for extended exploration opportunities.&nbsp;As well as this, Project Quest is equipped with 10-ton cranes integrated into her aft deck bulwarks and the capability of carrying two 12.8-metre tenders. In terms of performance, Project Quest uses a diesel-electric propulsion system, providing the explorer yacht with great autonomy and range.

According to the designer, this flexible material reduces overall weight while improving performance, enabling higher speeds with greater efficiency, and a low-slung profile that reduces drag while optimising navigation.Moreover, these sculptural forms are made possible by the use of the ductile material in creating pronounced curves, undercuts, overhangs, and cantilevers while maintaining structural efficiency.<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/398224/image/large-22fc13d38f01b6d1bb5ffc8f649cd647.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/398224" style="box-sizing: inherit; border: 0px; font-family: &quot;Open Sans&quot;, sans-serif; position: relative; max-width: 100%; margin: 1rem 0px; color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-size: 13.6px; font-style: normal; font-variant-ligatures: normal; font-variant-caps: normal; font-weight: 400; letter-spacing: normal; orphans: 2; text-align: start; text-indent: 0px; text-transform: none; widows: 2; word-spacing: 0px; -webkit-text-stroke-width: 0px; white-space: normal; background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255); text-decoration-thickness: initial; text-decoration-style: initial; text-decoration-color: initial;">With a layout designed to balance engineering and contemporary design, accommodation onboard the Amer 42A is arranged across a full-beam owner's suite on the main deck, alongside guest staterooms located on the lower deck.

Paris-based design studio <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/8836" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="AERI (Company)">Aeri</a> has unveiled the 60-metre superyacht concept, Aeon. While her exterior impresses with its sculpted form and dynamic silhouette, her interiors draw immediate inspiration from traditional Japanese ink painting, known as Sumi-e.<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/397900/image/large-25770025bec72332e78e089c1e6f4c78.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/397900">This design language is echoed throughout the yacht, where a tapered stern and carefully sculpted hull give her a sense of movement even when at anchor. Her superstructure follows the same architectural philosophy, with each deck set slightly back from the one below, creating a series of spacious outdoor terraces while reducing the yacht’s visual bulk.<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/397905/image/large-7b0d07ff485db32e75db80d4dc5f6721.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/397905">Inside, Aeon's main saloon is defined by expansive panelling and an understated aesthetic. Hand-painted Sumi-e-inspired panels, paired with a carefully curated palette of neutral tones and dark woods, create a serene atmosphere that runs throughout the yacht.<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/397904/image/large-7f18429be1d53c258046583d94ef94e5.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/397904">At the centre of her main saloon, a low-profile L-shaped sofa in cream fabric anchors the space. Overhead, a striking ceiling feature combines illuminated panels with wood inlays, subtly echoing the Sumi-e inspiration. Carefully selected furnishings, including sculptural bar stools, enhance the sense of elegance, while sliding doors lead seamlessly to the adjacent outdoor dining and lounge areas.<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/397902/image/large-d828f08f688ddb4924bb3f89453ffe66.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/397902"><img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/397903/image/large-61472bc9b5dc00bd42d9f10dc2a9914f.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/397903">With owner privacy and flexibility in mind, Aeon's designer has presented several general arrangement options. She measures a beam of 10.5-metres and a gross tonnage of approximately 500 GT plus. Aeon offers either five or six guest cabins, alongside a variety of entertainment and lifestyle configurations, and is supported by crew accommodation in eight cabins.<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/397906/image/large-4a9069b84e00c7fea6d53c75c398727b.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/397906"><img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/397899/image/large-269c5397b57b06bbe3c704364d4423f0.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/397899">One layout features a dedicated private owner’s deck complete with a Jacuzzi and outdoor relaxation area. Forward, a larger swimming pool area enhances leisure space, while aft, an open discussion pit connects directly to an enclosed wellness area.<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/397901/image/large-ff3b63ffaedeb07159be13b1974dbb7a.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/397901">“Rather than relying on sheer scale for its presence, the concept seeks to demonstrate how carefully considered proportions, sculpted surfaces and architectural layering can create a yacht with a distinctive identity and a powerful visual character,” concluded the design studio.

The yacht draws on traditional Indian architecture and Eastern character to present a new interpretation of contemporary superyacht design.<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/397835/image/large-8ecee397953de6a34f0649093b7c1551.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/397835">Conceived without the constraints of a specific gross tonnage category or yacht class, Airavat takes inspiration from monumental Indian temples, translating their structural expression, spatial layouts and craftsmanship into a contemporary yacht concept. According to the designer, the project marks a deliberate departure from the "glass-box" aesthetic prevalent across much of today's superyacht market.<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/397818/image/large-4a501bd7a2cc02b1897dd11e4ee1c309.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/397818"><img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/397817/image/large-ea64ebd61db0c46a90d599d1a10991bc.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/397817">Inspired by the mythical royal white elephant, the designer aims for the Airavat concept to move past the "glass-box" and “automotive” themes that currently dominate the superyacht market. Unburdened from the typical limitations of specific yacht tonnage, this concept was conceived to offer a fresh vision in the industry.<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/397836/image/large-f7bbcc3fc5f0fb968ffc0eb362903afa.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/397836"><img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/397809/image/large-70e285713fb37f7cbe96be09c5aad23f.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/397809" style="box-sizing: inherit; border: 0px; font-family: &quot;Open Sans&quot;, sans-serif; position: relative; max-width: 100%; margin: 1rem 0px; color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-size: 13.6px; font-style: normal; font-variant-ligatures: normal; font-variant-caps: normal; font-weight: 400; letter-spacing: normal; orphans: 2; text-align: start; text-indent: 0px; text-transform: none; widows: 2; word-spacing: 0px; -webkit-text-stroke-width: 0px; white-space: normal; background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255); text-decoration-thickness: initial; text-decoration-style: initial; text-decoration-color: initial;">Rather than concealing the vessel's structural boundaries, designer Sanjit Nair incorporates the grandeur, massive scale, and intricate artistry of traditional Indian temple architecture, turning the yacht into a spiritual sanctuary at sea.<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/397812/image/large-5315c8defbbaf32c671d9fd60b0bb539.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/397812">Reflecting on the project, Sanjit Nair added: "Superyacht design has hit a structural and spatial saturation point; vessels are beginning to mimic one another, losing their individual soul. Vision Juggernaut is how I want to add a different kind of value to yacht design. It is an expression of personal style and a form of adding an authentic Eastern character–defined by raw scale, monumental reverence and structural honesty– to the global stage.<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/397829/image/large-0db7f57680934fa8302612781a57eae3.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/397829">In terms of defining features, Airavat showcases its exposed double-height structural pillars that support the superstructure. Rather than hiding these structural elements, the design celebrates the grandeur of traditional Indian stone columns to create a striking silhouette.<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/397830/image/large-b45ee2abe559d2df1ed9d63cc785df4c.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/397830" style="box-sizing: inherit; border: 0px; font-family: &quot;Open Sans&quot;, sans-serif; position: relative; max-width: 100%; margin: 1rem 0px; color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-size: 13.6px; font-style: normal; font-variant-ligatures: normal; font-variant-caps: normal; font-weight: 400; letter-spacing: normal; orphans: 2; text-align: start; text-indent: 0px; text-transform: none; widows: 2; word-spacing: 0px; -webkit-text-stroke-width: 0px; white-space: normal; background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255); text-decoration-thickness: initial; text-decoration-style: initial; text-decoration-color: initial;">Her aft deck has been conceived as a ceremonial arrival space, featuring a broad staircase descending to the swim platform alongside an 11-metre infinity pool. Inspired by the Varanasi Ghats along the Ganges River, the arrangement is intended to recreate the experience of approaching India's historic riverside steps.<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/397816/image/large-edfb7199b3e7509fe8046f04bab6a25b.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/397816" style="box-sizing: inherit; border: 0px; font-family: &quot;Open Sans&quot;, sans-serif; position: relative; max-width: 100%; margin: 1rem 0px; color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-size: 13.6px; font-style: normal; font-variant-ligatures: normal; font-variant-caps: normal; font-weight: 400; letter-spacing: normal; orphans: 2; text-align: start; text-indent: 0px; text-transform: none; widows: 2; word-spacing: 0px; -webkit-text-stroke-width: 0px; white-space: normal; background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255); text-decoration-thickness: initial; text-decoration-style: initial; text-decoration-color: initial;">Forward, the yacht's sculptural bow mimics the sweep of an elephant's trunk, while the hull and superstructure reference the star-shaped foundations of Karnataka's Keshava Temple. Meanwhile, a life-sized sculpture of the mythical white elephant Airavata stands prominently on the bow, reinforcing the yacht’s identity.<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/397813/image/large-a4a30e7a838bd434bc6a6ecda2c06339.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/397813"><img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/397815/image/large-07fce8c614fd8943a271cff3fbf41a20.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/397815">Airavat&nbsp;creatively reimagines ancient motifs as modern yacht elements. For instance, overhanging balconies inspired by Jharokha architecture serve as private viewing retreats overlooking the sea.<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/397827/image/large-0e53430bebfe5872bc16c1c5726f9017.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/397827"><img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/397828/image/large-1072cfe948d99771e1dbfa2d016acd4a.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/397828">Moving inside, the design creates an interplay of light and geometry: circular, Mandala-inspired teak decking aligns with an illuminated glass roof above the dining pavilion, capturing the &nbsp;"open-sky" architecture found in the Kopeshwar Shiva Temple.<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/397826/image/large-6612b1e51380b6bd0bb89d057ff19208.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/397826">With a beam of 17-metres, Airavat features a centralised arrangement of interior living spaces intended to maximise onboard comfort and stability. The owner's deck incorporates a spacious aft lounge fitted with a custom diamond-shaped bar, while a grand central staircase leads to the bridge deck dining pavilion, set beneath the Mandala-inspired skylight.<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/397832/image/large-34732874166f334be26b3a63f8a246d3.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/397832">

The interiors are envisioned with natural textures and abundant natural light, creating a calm and serene atmosphere throughout.<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/371458/image/large-629591ac6433214be2b741848e6447b9.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/371458">In the main saloon, guests can choose to gaze out toward the horizon or turn inward for conversation, thanks to adjustable sofa backrests that easily shift the seating orientation.Moreover, Waves' master suite is described as a “contemporary retreat” where nature and technology converge. Features such as dynamic LED lighting and a programmable skylight are designed to adapt to the body’s natural rhythms. The suite also showcases a symmetrical layout with his-and-hers bathrooms and walk-in wardrobes, while floor-to-ceiling windows provide uninterrupted views of the sea.<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/371457/image/large-3a38be88a0713cacbec6ced37a30ecc5.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/371457">A standout feature of the concept is its wellness area, which combines advanced lighting technology with warm, organic materials such as teak and 3D-printed clay. Designed with privacy in mind, the space is divided into two distinct zones and offers a full range of amenities, including a sauna, Jacuzzi with cold plunge, and red-light therapy, crafted to promote both relaxation and recovery at sea.“We believe luxury is not defined by excess, but by the quality of the experience it creates for the people who live it,” concluded Arnau.
