Yacht Premiere

Solandge by Lürssen Yachts with Espen Øino Design and Rodriguez Interiors his 85.10 metre yacht combines many faces and a single central idea, achieving excellence in the realisation of a magnificent dream thanks to the interiors by Aileen Rodriguez and exterior styling by Espen Øino and the Lürssen project team – something that is highly appreciated in the chartering world as well. The central idea aboard Solandge is a strong neo-classical flavour combined with a contemporary background, which emanates luxury and grandeur through a unique blend of rare materials and glamorous effects. The process involved famous designers and skilled artisans who worked with dozens of varieties of stone and more than 30 exotic woods. The result is a majestic creation with harmonious proportions, whose luxurious impact is based on a balanced spatial metric that gradually becomes attenuated in the exteriors as one moves upwards. It is a magic made possible by Rodriguez Interiors, the great international design firm that works with world class boat builders designing yacht interiors in North America and Europe. Richard Masters, CEO of Master Yachts, managed the project on behalf of the Owner, who wanted to amaze with Solandge and be amazed by her. ­

White and blue characterize the boat. There is a Jacuzzi on both the sun deck and the Owner’s deck. The garage opens at the sides and on the main deck a hatch transforms into a terrace. In the somewhat vintage-style cushions, the console tables, the large sofas, the fireplaces and the worked parquet flooring, her style is the extension of a neo-classical school, an expression of magnificence running from the Napoleonic era to the present day. There is an intriguing, increasingly popular fashion for past cultures, which tends to place furniture with curved, rounded shapes, leather,...

The control room features advanced technological equipment, its look is inspired by maximum comfort, safety and efficiency, just like all the other technical areas. The bar dominates the centre in front of four windows, with a violet-coloured onyx countertop and a quilted upright in the same colour. The wood flooring culminates in an inlaid depiction of a tree. The wall-mounted fireplace, the light effects within the alabaster, TV screens and latest-generation technologies present are decidedly modern, without clashing with the setting. Still on the main deck, the guest quarters are more...

A glass wall opens out onto the deck, doubling the space with a dining area, bar, sunbathing area and cosy private seating areas. Two spas to enjoy and harmony with the sea on deck In the aft area on the lower deck, a beach club with sauna, day head, shower and pantry is connected to the beach area, while on the bridge deck there is a complete spa with a sauna, steam room, hydrotherapy room, massage room, beauty saloon and hydrotherapy shower and a gym with a view over the open-air swimming pool. The warm, relaxing mood is enhanced by the pinkish ochre of burl and other woods, the white of...

The natural wood seating around it has a decor that echoes the interiors, such as the columns clad in glass compositions by Crystal Caviar on the upper deck. As a more prosaic but practical feature, there is a mega grill for the timeless pleasures of the table and inside, a well-stocked pantry. In the forward section and the half moon-shaped side sections that overhang the sea on the other decks, glass panels below the handrail offer protection from the wind. On the upper deck, which is effectively dedicated to the Owner, the Jacuzzi repeats the mosaic of the sun deck Jacuzzi in blue-green...

On the lower deck, the crew quarters include 15 cabins, the crew mess, galley and a high-tech kitchen. There is a second crew lounge on the tank deck. The galley is entirely in stainless steel and worthy of a Michelin-starred restaurant, with two spacious kitchen islands and large windows with sliding panels in milk white glass. The lower deck also houses the upper section of the engine room and a large garage with two side hatches for launching a NAIAD 10.5 m Inflatable Rib Centre Console tender, a Centurion 7.32 m Enzo Wake Boarding tender, water toys and sports equipment. The tank deck...
