Indian design studio creates superyacht with giant glass eye

As a record number of superyachts enters the market, designers are increasingly testing their limits, seeking more and more innovation.

In recent years, several design studios have created yachts inspired by spaceships, sharks, post-apocalyptic movies and even origami.

However, a new concept from the Indian studio Bhushan Powar Design, may be one of the most attractive to date.

The 110-meter vessel, called Zion, features an impressive glass dome that looks like a gigantic eye, or “black hole”.

attractive design

Serving as an observation deck for those aboard the superyacht, Zion offers 360-degree views and will undoubtedly draw attention while at sea.

“Our concept appeals to modern elegance and wants to surprise everyone”, say the designers, before pointing out that black holes “attract energy. ”

In addition to the dome, which is clearly the highlight, Zion will have a glass-bottom infinity pool, as well as a glass elevator connecting all decks.

A bridge where passengers can rest and enjoy the views “in all weather conditions” and a 12-meter helipad are situated on the upper deck of the vessel, which has an aluminum structure.

accommodations

There are 10 luxurious cabins on board and a master suite on the main deck with private balconies.

The lower deck features a beach club with gym and an open garden that can be transformed into a spacious sun lounge via folding terraces on either side.

Zion, which is estimated to be priced between $500 million and $600 million, will also have a large garage filled with jet skis and various other water toys.

While it’s just a concept at the moment, the design studio’s founder Bhushan Powar is hopeful that Zion could become a reality one day.

However, he admits it will take a lot of time and research to determine if this is possible.

Based in Goa, Bhushan Powar Design was launched in 2019 and is described as the “first luxury yacht design studio in India”.

Innovative concepts

The studio’s concepts are largely influenced by the Arabian Sea, says Powar.

In 2019, the design team presented the Mori, a 90-meter superyacht concept that was inspired by the mako shark.

Zion is one of several innovations that were unveiled this year. the design company Lazzarini Design Studio based in Rome, recently revealed the Air Yacht a new concept that can “sail the sky” as well as the ocean.

Meanwhile, the Italian design studio SkyStyle presented its latest design, the Unique 71 a 71 meter knife-shaped superyacht, in January.
