SLICE

A revolutionary 85m concept, SLICE aims to tackle one of the biggest grievances in yacht design: long hallways, dark interiors and stacked living spaces. 

Engineered with a glass strip running entirely from bow to stern, allowing for natural light to filter in through multiple decks, Slice 'turns the inside out and the outside in,' Studio De Voogt Lead Designer Chris Bottoms and Head of Design Tanno Weeda. 

Feadship set out to completely reimagine a yacht from inside out, slicing their CAD model right down the centreline and pushing the halves apart to make room for a strip of glass running from bow to stern, a far more challenging plan than a series of skylights.

Having a slice running down the middle opens up countless spatial and lighting possibilities: corridors, for example, become much more than just hallways transitioning from one space to another. 

The heart of the yacht is the monumental 70m2 atrium at main deck level. Uninterrupted by a staircase, the atrium is more than a lobby, but a destination in its own right for guests moving fore and aft.

Another striking feature of Slice is a 10m long pool designed using data science.

SLICE's incredible interior has been designed by Marco van Ham.
