Owner's Residence by Patricia Urquiola
The most exclusive residence on board, the Owner’s Residence, designed by Patricia Urquiola, represents the ultimate expression of modern ocean living: an immersive emotional and sensory journey.
Every surface and detail reflects Patricia Urquiola’s distinctive approach – beauty quietly revealed through texture, proportion, and light.
An expansive terrace stretching across the full width of the aft, invites guests to experience uninterrupted ocean views from the oversized whirlpool, gather around the alfresco dining table, or recline in beautifully appointed outdoor lounge chairs.
Inside, sculptural elegance shapes the atmosphere: oak parquet, refined marbles and a continuous curved boiserie create a fluid sense of movement, enriched by furnishings from Cassina, Kettal and Moroso. A circular dining room for eight flows naturally into the generous living area and bar counter designed for effortless entertaining.
The private bedroom offers panoramic sea views and a peaceful sense of retreat, while the travertine-crafted bathroom features a bathtub, separate shower and a private steam room and a spacious walk-in wardrobe.
