NAVETTA The M/YFELICITY, the twelfth CustomLine Navetta 42 hull, is a design project developed by the Ferretti Group Engineering Department, with the CustomLineAtelier playing a strategic role in the interior design process by interpreting the style requirements of the owner family. With a length of 41.8 m and a beam of 8.1 m, this superyacht features a powerful sculpted silhouette. Flowing lines, formal clarity and a functional aesthetic are the key features of a design that exploits the yacht’s generous volumes, using a functional approach to maximise the interior and exterior living areas, as well as assuring total privacy for the owner and guests by providing passageways reserved for the crew and captain. In the interiors, the chromatic palette juxtaposes vibrant, intense colours with contrasting shades that run from smooth nuances of beige, sand and cream to fresh tints of moss and mint green, featured in the main deck salon and several cabins, right through to elegant tones of Burgundy purple and earth in the owner areas. The interplay of colours is also a feature of the upper deck and cockpit, where blue and pink gold reign supreme, pointing up the colours and the vicinity of the sea in an area designed as a leisure space for owner and guests. Various shades of yellow pervade and illuminate the sun deck, welcoming those on board in an atmosphere of total relaxation. The furnishings feature fine materials such as Arabescato Corchia, Calacatta Viola, Breccia Capraia and Carrara marble, side-by-side with Stone Grey, creating a style characterised by a refined sense of opulence. Several of the freestanding pieces and coverings feature warm, inviting materials such as nubuck leather, velvet and American walnut. A new launch for the successful Custom Line Navetta 30 line was a joint design effort by the Product Strategy Department, which produced the exterior design, and the Ferretti Group Engineering Department, along with ACPVARCHITECTS’Antonio Citterio Patricia Viel for the interior architecture and architect Filippo Salvetti for the exterior styling. Strategic consulting for the interior design was provided by Custom Line Atelier, which tailored the project to the owner’s stylistic preferences. With a length of 28.43 m and a beam of 7.3 m, this superyacht delivers ambitious volumes while continuing to convey a feeling of lightness and elegance. Refined avant-garde styling and timeless aesthetic taste are the other defining elements. The sleek and dynamic profile of the exteriors is pointed up by the extended sweep of horizontal lines towards the bow. In the interiors, the colour palette is a combination of pale and luminous tones that amplify the incoming light and enhance on-board liveability. The chosen colours range from snow and glacier white to the beige used for the salons, cabins and mosaic walls, or from shell pink, sand and cashmere to the darker, more embracing nuances of anthracite and cobalt blue used for some of the ornamental elements. The decor features elegant and natural materials like rope, natural teak, nubuck leather and Calacatta Oro marble in the freestanding elements. 352 | Simply Abu Dhabi
