Developments

In order to provide the best solutions and services, Azure Yacht Design and Naval Architecture continuously monitors its client's requirements combined with understanding of the yacht market. Due to the fact that the Owners and guests prefer luxury yachts that allow them to have a close contact with the surrounding environment, Azure has come up with a solution that offers its clients superyachts with more open space, more outdoor areas and a greater use of glass to ensure more light and better views.

Thanks to a year-long research program, which involved testing prototypes, Azure Naval Architecture and Yacht Design's engineering knowledge has increased and became more refined, providing the yacht design studio with additional confidence and tools to design very large windows and even glass bulwarks. This process has been conducted by working closely with Lloyd's Register and having their approval on these applications. Clients continue to express a lot of interest in the new options that were opened up to them.

As new rules are being developed by Flag States as well as the Classification Societies, mega yacht design studio Azure continues to participate in review committees and actively designs yachts to the latest rules. It has applied the Passenger Yacht Code (PYC) to a number of its designs and the company is constantly at the forefront of these new rules by keeping in close contact with the relevant bodies and surveyors. The numerous contacts and relationships that Azure has developed and continues developing allows it to steadily grow as a successful luxury superyacht design and naval architecture office. Azure's portfolio of clients from around the world makes it a company with a truly global outlook and reach.

Luxury superyachts

Azure Yacht Design & Naval Architecture was responsible for the naval architecture of such important luxury mega yachts as the 88,5m Oceanco NIRVANA superyacht (Project Y707), the 85m mega yacht St Princess Olga (Project Y708) and created naval architecture for 91m Project Y709 and the Project Y710 yacht of 88,5 metres.
