The outstanding 38,55m (126’5’’) motor yacht LADY INDIA (ex Katrion, #665) represents the first superyacht interior refit project performed by Dutch interior design agency Versteegh-Design, an expert at turning pool houses into immersive wellness experiences. Originally launched by Feadship in 2003, superyacht LADY INDIA was put on the market in 2013, and when sold last March, her new Owner decided to rebuild the whole interior.

Comfortably sleeping 8 guests and a crew of 7, luxury yacht LADY INDIA now boasts new interiors, reflecting the owner’s personal style. In order to protect their uniqueness, the interiors were refitted without radically changing the look and feel of the yacht, keeping existing elements and adding a few new elements.

Renowned for their expertise in craftsmanship and high-quality detail woodwork, “Giorgetti” furniture was chosen, in order to equal the quality and details of the original cabinets. All furniture was placed well-considered in the seamless and bespoke design and fits perfectly in combination with the wooden cabinets. The floor covering consists of very luxurious high pile carpets and the blue color makes a nice contemporary combination with the red cabinet wood. A notable design detail is the shading in the carpet, which looks like ocean waves. Waves which smoothly continue in all cabins; to have a sea view, both inside and out.

The bamboo wood panels on all doors of LADY INDIA superyacht were replaced by smoked glass mirrors and wall panels were replaced by new shiny fabrics to give them a touch of glamour. The walls of the stairs are covered with a special 3d wallpaper in an Audrey Hepburn style. The hallway features a vista panel with a direct view to the master cabin’s art. Wall panels and railings are decorated with cross diagonal elements, which are also reflected in the bed’s stitched leather headboards. The storage cabinet was converted into a luxury open drinks cabinet. The TV room on the aft deck was changed into a bar made of bent copper and leather. Moreover, the bar is fitted with all DJ mixing console connectors, giving the opportunity to party on all times.

In addition to the interior, Versteegh-Design was also asked to create a graphic design for the new yacht’s logo. Their expertise and experience in designing aircraft interiors and train design were of great help when designing the striking interiors of super yacht LADY INDIA (ex Katrion, #665).
