The 85m motor yacht Amaranth was created by the Italian studio, Bicube Design, founded in 2006. The Amaranth superyacht features very strong as well as aggressive styling, which contributes to her organic and elegant profile.
The design motion is highlighted by the stretched arch encompassing the sun deck and neatly caps the top of the super yacht Amaranth, recalling some of the Santiago Calatrava´s architecture.
What is striking and also exciting, are the volumes created on the sides of the yacht: the space between decks resemble ribbons, starting from the stern and approaching the large central pillar without interruption, before falling away as if they were waves carved by the wind. This creates shades of the light and shadow, enhanced by the silver colour of the superstructure.
Great attention was also paid to the shape of the windows. They create contrasts that emphasise the strong character of the luxury yacht Amaranth and provide the interior living areas with plenty of light, while ensuring privacy.
The Owner´s suite takes up an area of 160 square metres on the upper deck, with a large window offering a view of almost 270 degrees. The suite also boasts a wide private terrace with whirlpool, while guest accommodation consists of five VIP en suite cabins with walk-in closets.
Large areas of the Amaranth yacht are dedicated to conviviality with full-beam living rooms, dining room and casino. Leisure facilities with include a cinema, gym with sauna and steam bath, while a large garage can accommodate numerous water toys and two 12-metre yacht tenders.
The sun deck has been designed to accommodate a touch-and-go helipad which doubles as a sun terrace or for exclusive yet private dining, even in ports crowded with onlookers.
The mega yacht Amaranth is expected to be constructed from steel and aluminium, with an original system of modular division for the interior – a solution that allows greater flexibility to satisfy various Owner requirements, while reducing the overall weight of structural parts and thus limiting the costs. A diesel-electric propulsion system of Amaranth is envisaged for economical consumption.
