Seatius
SW 96
Interior Design by: Nauta Design
While two warm and traditional interiors garnered the judges’ appreciation in this category, the very contemporary interior of Seatius seized their votes. The yacht is fully customised for long distance cruising but at near performance-yacht speeds. The elegant, lightweight interior gives nothing away in terms of luxury as elegant fabrics and suede highlight a predominantly two-tone, light and dark colour scheme with interior joinery of socially responsible, reconstituted wood veneer. Matching the exterior, the lines of the interior are crisp and clean but hardly minimalist as stepped surfaces and reveals add depth and interest. Using the darker joinery as an accent for overhead ventilation panels and updated crown moulding, which also hides ambient lighting, visually lengthens the rooms. The open sightlines from the combination saloon/dining area two steps down into the cosy TV lounge make the boat feel much larger than its 31 metres, as does the fact there are just three very spacious en suite cabins for owner and guests. These are forward, with crew accommodation and galley aft.
