M/Y Abydos by Venture Yachts, Laurent Giles & Omega Architects

Venture Yachts, Laurent Giles & Omega Architects have been shortlisted for Interior Design (Over 40 Metres)Award in The International Yacht & Aviation Awards 2022.

Venture Yachts’ flagship project M/Y ABYDOS – a 44-metre carbon-hybrid composite motor yacht – is the result of exterior & interior design work by Omega Architects B.V. and naval architecture by Laurent Giles Naval Architects Ltd. Abydos has a modern and unique design that is easily distinguishable but blends the basics with modern elements at certain limits that will make her timeless. The experienced owner held a clear design brief, defining his dream family boat that has been embodied by design and engineering experts.

Inside, the yacht accommodates eleven guests in five staterooms that are located on the hull deck. A full-beam master cabin is located amidships. The Master bathroom and walk-in closet separate the accommodation from the engine room. Three VIP cabins with king-size beds and a guest cabin with twin beds and a Pullman are placed forward of the master cabin. On main deck level, the main saloon is located abaft the raised pilothouse with port and starboard facing lounge seating embedded into panoramic sea views. Full height glasses on the forward section provides an unobstructed view on both sides of the dining table, which is adjacent to the custom decorative panel provided by Alcyhmia.

A unique 45 m2 open galley is located at main deck forward, which is one of the main design features of Abydos. This special galley has been designed by a professional cook with several best-seller books and is equipped with a selection of top-end appliances that will help to serve the forward dining under the skylight. The flybridge deck provides 88m2 luxury area with a plunge pool and full-beam sunbathing area at the aft. U-seating and Dedon loose furniture are located amidship under the hardtop shad, and the 12-person dining teak table is surrounded by the forward serving counters and a bar located on port. The flybridge deck is protected from wind by high bulwarks, but see-through glass sections still ensure the open deck feeling.

Overall, M/Y ABYDOS is designed and built according to her experienced owner’s wish list for exterior and interior layouts, along with a unique naval architecture package providing high-performance cruising and soft riding characteristics when desired. Comfortable high-speed cruising, three equally sized VIP cabins for the children and unique country kitchen for family gatherings were all met on ABYDOS. Her luxury interior & exterior design, with the elegant touch of Alchymia decorative panels and Ludovica furniture, work in harmony to provide the “landscape and nature at sea” feeling that was aimed for by the owner.
