Superyacht Times has featured the superyacht L’Amage in an article including an interview with H.Bekradi the designer of this futuristic superyacht where her explains the project as “This project was a challenge to see how far we can take the exterior styling of a superyacht towards a modern and futuristic look, which is still feasible based on today’s available technologies,” starts Bekradi. “My background is in car design, so in this project I applied a similar approach to that of the “show cars” whereby lowering the concerns over the budget, designers will be given more freedom to envision ideas and solutions that normally could not be obtained in a project with tight budget limits.” Continues by explaining “Once these new and visionary ideas and solutions are created then there will be the possibility to modify and re-engineer some of them in order to make them applicable to a more ‘ordinary’ project with limited budget. In other words, adapting them to today’s technology and manufacturing techniques. That’s how new input can be inserted in the industry.”
“We know that there might be just a few individuals in the world who can possibly commission the build of a superyacht the size of L’Amage,” Bekradi concludes, “but the design features and solutions that were created for this project, could easily be scaled down and applied on smaller yachts, let’s say a 90 metre superyacht or a 75 metre explorer version, for which we already have an interested client.”
