The Italian Sea Group announces that the megayacht Admiral Kenshō 75m has won the “Best interior design, motor yachts” Award in the category “500 GT and above” of the prestigious Boat International Design & Innovation Awards 2023 which celebrates architecture, style, design, and technological innovation in yachting.
The award ceremony was held Wednesday 8th February in Cortina d’Ampezzo, during the
Superyacht Design Festival, in the presence of an international jury of experts in the sector.
The innovative Kenshō megayacht, delivered in July 2022, was born from the collaboration between the Owner, who personally followed the project, the French agency Jouin Manku, which designed the interiors and Azure Design, that developed the exteriors together with archineers.berlin.
Focus on the environment
From the exteriors to the interiors, the narrative is fluid and contemporary: Teak, Marble, Onyx, Silk, Wool, Bronze and Glass, make up a heterogeneous set of materials combined for a poetic and refined result.
Consistent with The Italian Sea Group’s strategy, more and more sustainability-oriented,
Admiral Kenshō is equipped with an innovative “diesel-electric” propulsion system, with permanent magnet electric engines that provide high efficiency and strong power, with
limited volumes.
The propulsion system is equipped with five variable speed generators, all provided with an anti-particulate system to optimize consumption at any speed and reduce emissions into the atmosphere.
The design was developed mostly focusing on the environmental impact, respecting the “ECO” notation of the IACS; even the hull was designed to minimize the resistance using an Azimuth thruster and retractable stabilization flaps.
