Piredda & Partners have been shortlisted for the Concept Over 40 Metres Award in The International Yacht & Aviation Awards.

Piredda & Partners believe that M/Y NOW was born to become an icon of the evolution and innovation that the yachting industry is able to achieve. The upcoming years will bring about a new design process where designers will reconsider volumes, heights, proportions, as well as a new way of living aboard and new flows, while keeping functionality as priority. The design result is on a whole new level.

M/Y NOW, a 110m vessel by 15.6m beam (18m including aft and forward wings), sheds light on this idea of the future. The volume alignment alteration creates new spots onboard and splits areas with different purposes such as the private owner’s deck and the crew quarter on bridge deck.

The exterior design features rational sporty lines on an overall modern appearance. The profile of the vessel shows a low silhouette although hides a great amount of interior space, thanks to the superstructure that connects three decks with continuous arcs resulting in two monolithic volumes floating on the full-glass housing. Piredda & Partners wanted the full to feature soft and clean forms that highlight the advanced treatment of the surface, the curvature illustrates amazing reflections. Each area on the decks has been conceived with a specific intended use to allow guests to enjoy the perfect environment at any time.

The challenging soul that stands out from the exterior design expresses its uniqueness in the interior as well. Here the luxury talks with a rare ethnic style that merges refined materials from all around the globe in a pure tribute to Nature. Piredda & Partners wanted these interior spaces to feel elegant but informal with a variation of open spaces, intimate corners, and private exclusive areas. A grand salon welcomes guests onboard in an impressive double height space with floor-to-ceiling windows, a true example of technological innovation and styling evolution. Among the other remarkable features there is the 75sqm theatre placed amidship that boasts 4.4m clear height, the full-beam Arcade with terraces, the spacious Heli-lobby, the Basketball field on the forward deck, the Party deck on the top of the vessel, and other countless unique gems.

In her 4135GT, M/Y NOW accommodates 18 guests with the owner stateroom in a whole private deck, 4 VIP suites on main deck, and 4 guest cabins on lower deck, while the crew area accommodates 41 members including 4 staff. M/Y NOW draws just few lines above the horizon that make her silhouette unmistakable from miles away, a unique and simple style, with no need for any futile décor, to become an icon among the worldwide fleet.
