A classy way to sail the seas


This is the life! 'Cyan' is a 160-ft yacht, owned by 3 families together, and it has recently undergone a serious transformation. As well as all of the interiors of the yacht being re-done, by designer Nina Seirafi, an enclosed gym has also been added to the top deck of the boat! The interiors were ripped out and redecorated in a consistent style throughout - with African-inspired touches - and Seirafi has used various woods for ceilings, units, tables, etc. to keep a very sophisticated, elegant theme (reflecting the cost of the yacht!). "My style is maximum quality and minimum pretense,” she says in an interview with 'Architectural Digest'. “That’s what I aim for. Pretense and glamour are very different. I love glamour, but unpretentious glamour.” I'm not sure to what extent this yacht could be referred to as 'unpretentious'(?!), but it's still amazing to look at nonetheless!

  1. Really like the design of the interior......it just looks so luxurious and relaxing. I like way that if you saw the interior of this you would never imagine that it was on a boat!
