Hot Lab Crafts Stunning Interiors for Explorer Yacht "Kaşif"

Milan, Italy – January 2024 – Hot Lab, the renowned Italian design studio, has unveiled their captivating work on the interiors of the 41.9-meter explorer yacht, Kaşif. This remarkable vessel, built by Bilgin Yachts, showcases Hot Lab's expertise in creating bespoke and stylish interiors that perfectly reflect the owner's vision.

A Collaborative Effort:

  • Hot Lab: Played a pivotal role in crafting the yacht's interior design, working closely with the owners, Bilgin Yachts, and Unique Yacht Design (responsible for exterior design and naval architecture).
  • Unique Yacht Design: Emphasized exceptional performance and redefined the concept of exploration with Kaşif's design.

A Meeting of Minds:

  • The owners, with their extensive maritime background and distinct preferences, actively participated in the design process.
  • Enrico Lumini, Partner and Head of Design at Hot Lab, comments: "The owners' dedication and experience necessitated a unique approach, going beyond our standard procedures."

A Testament to Teamwork:

  • Kaşif embodies the successful collaboration between Hot Lab, Bilgin Yachts, Unique Yacht Design, and contractor Septemar.
  • Emrecan Özgün from Unique Yacht Design: "Kaşif pushes the boundaries of maritime performance and redefines exploration on the open sea."

Designed for Exploration and Efficiency:

  • The yacht boasts a robust hull, inspired by the acclaimed 80-meter series, ensuring exceptional efficiency and impressive speeds.
  • Its design caters to the owner's offshore fish farming business, offering a safe and reliable vessel for navigating to remote locations.

Elevating the Interior Experience:

  • Hot Lab, inspired by the owner's brief, translated their vision into a cohesive and elegant interior design.
  • Lumini explains: "Our goal was to create a recognizable and detailed style, appealing to a wider audience while incorporating elements that reflect the owners' interests."

Distinct Decks, Unified Style:

  • The layout, developed by Unique Yacht Design, features three distinct guest areas spread across three decks:
  • Lower deck: Accommodates guest cabins, including a VIP cabin and twin cabins.
  • Main deck: Houses the main saloon and dining area.
  • Upper deck: Offers a second saloon and the owner's office.
  • Hot Lab's design concept maintains a consistent core style across all decks while introducing subtle variations in color and elements to create unique personalities for each space.

A Celebration of the Sea:

  • The interior design subtly references the sea throughout, evident in the choice of materials, artwork, and lighting fixtures.
  • Lumini highlights specific examples:
    • The dining area features a circular lighting installation resembling a school of fish.
    • The beach club showcases a custom artwork depicting a wave, crafted from resin and teak.
    • The entranceway boasts a three-dimensional, abstract fish sculpture.

Bespoke Furniture and Meticulous Attention to Detail:

  • As with most Hot Lab projects, all furniture onboard Kaşif is custom-designed to seamlessly integrate with the overall design theme and fulfill the owner's requirements.
  • Lumini elaborates: "Each piece of furniture embodies a gentle, smooth, and organic approach. The office desk and library in the upper saloon stand out for their masculine yet gentle character, perfectly complementing the space."

A Collaborative Masterpiece:

  • Kaşif exemplifies the successful outcome of collaboration between various entities, each contributing their expertise and fostering a cohesive design language.
  • Antonio Romano, Commercial Director of The Viken Group and co-founder of Hot Lab, expresses his hope for future collaborations with the owners.
