The Horizon Group’s new 38m Espresso superyacht features state-of-the-art interiors by Guido de Groot. Built by the Horizon Group, the Taiwanese yacht builder, and designed by Florida-based yacht design firm J.C. Espinosa, Espresso is a 120 Raised Pilothouse model. The interior designed by Dutch design firm Guido de Groot was first created in 3D to ensure error free results.
The interiors are finished in whitewashed oak and zebrano wood, providing a contrast. The contrasting design is accentuated with a sophisticated lighting plan creating a modern, minimalist European style. Paintings by the famous Dutch painter Robert Vanderplas adorn the sliding doors.
The eight staterooms of the yacht feature en-suite heads and showers to accommodate twelve guests and six crews. The master stateroom is designed for the maximum utilization of the space. This split-level suite features an open-plan style accommodating sleeping area, study and elegant master bath. The spacious main salon opens to a dining room that accommodates 10 guests. Large windows at the salon and dining room allow plenty of natural light into the interiors. The yacht also features a swimming pool.
Horizon has made efforts to reduce weight in every aspect of equipment, decoration and structure. The big engines, hull structure, shafts, ventilation and other relative systems have been modified and upgraded to ensure safety, when operating at high speed. The yacht is engineered to reach top speed of 26knots, powered by MTU 3,650-hp engines.
The Espresso custom-built yacht was first displayed at 2010 Boot Dusseldorf yacht show.
