It takes an extraordinary design team to blend cutting-edge technology with sinuous forms. The unique structure of Feadship supports an inhouse creative think tank called Studio De Voogt. Together with the Knowledge & Innovation department, they are a true “imaginarium”; design topics, materials, and global trends are considered against the backdrop of the natural world and multi-cultural influences.
The 87-metre EXPV concept by Harrison Eidsgaard in collaboration with Feadship takes a completely fresh and unconventional approach to what large yachts – especially explorers – should look like.
Studio De Voogt envisioned Slice as a technically advanced envelope that rethinks the yachting lifestyle. A multi-story atrium staircase is a popular idea, but the best part, the open centre that could bring a feeling of spaciousness to the yacht’s core, is often compromised and crowded with a lift. On Slice, a lift, if requested, can be convenient but out of the way. Staircases port and starboard conceal structure allowing the unique living area of the three-level expanse and its opening terraces amidship to be the feature destination.
One of the most futuristic design templates in the Feadship vaults yet to be built is the pulsating Project 3099. With nothing remotely comparable on the market, this exceptional example of how pure custom Feadships begin with a blank piece of paper includes dedicated diving facilities and an iconic exterior profile.
