Dutch design studio Vripack, renowned for penning super creative interiors and gorgeous seaworthy vessels from scratch, presents its latest creature. Project Supernova is a new 60m explorer based on a proven platform, which removes the risk and engineering time for the owner, while the holistic design delivers a fully bespoke interior. The young, adventurous owner’s focus was on flexibility for explorative trips. Kitting the yacht out for diving in warmer climates or heli-skiing in colder climates was high on his wish list. Key requests included an expansive beach
club on the lower deck aft with fold-down platforms either side to make the footprint larger with hammocks when at anchor. There’s also a well-equipped dive centre. The owner’s interior design brief was for a contemporary take on classic American. It plays out with dark and moody wood panelling and a grey, blue and brown colour palette, accented with bronze plating, soft leathers, textured walls and oak furniture. Vripack crafted an open-plan layout that mimics a loft style apartment, with drop down balconies. vripack.com
