interiors of superyacht Illusion II following refit

SuperYacht Times takes a look onboard the 40m superyacht Illusion II following an extensive refit.

First look at the interiors of 40m superyacht Illusion II following major refit

Cana Gökhan and Fatih Sürekli, partners in life and co-founders of <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/4720" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Red Yacht Design (Company)">Red Yacht Design</a>, are aboard 28-metre <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Yacht/11048" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Waterlily28.45m (93'4&quot;)Mazu Yachts2023">Waterlily</a>, the first in the new steel-hulled series of pocket superyachts they designed for boutique builder <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/5259" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Mazu Yachts (Company)">Mazu</a>. The yacht made her debut at the <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Event/172" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Cannes Yachting Festival - 2023">Cannes Yachting Festival</a> and our conversation has turned to the perception of Turkish yacht designers and their status in the industry.&nbsp;“It can be a disadvantage in this business if you’re not from the UK, Italy or Holland,” says Cana. “Even when we propose something better, the top yards will usually pick Italians or British designers, which is one reason why we set up a London office and moved there. But what hurts most is that the big Turkish players are the same. They have their comfort zone and want to work with overseas designers because that is how they sell boats, so why try something new?”<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/296392/image/large-9364cd32a6ef49c0f5ec76faa2df081d.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/296392">She has a point. There is no intrinsic reason why the British, Italians or Dutch should make better designers. You could argue that the large yacht industry in Europe is older and more established, but Turkey now ranks third in the world after Italy and the Netherlands. Moreover, when you consider that Noah’s Ark may well have been built by Turkish shipwrights you realise that boat building is something they’ve been doing successfully for a very long time.“Attitudes are starting to change,” says Fatih. “There is a new generation of managers looking to beat their own path. They’re young, tech-savvy and much more willing to invest in home-grown talent.”&nbsp;One name that pops up is Emre Sandan, a contemporary of Cana and Fatih who shares a similar background. Cana graduated in architecture from Yıldız Technical University and worked for the Ulutas outfitting company before moving to <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/706" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Scaro Design (Company)">Scaro Design</a> in Istanbul where she was lead interior designer for the now defunct <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/705" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Peri Yachts (Company)">Peri Yachts</a> brand and its highly regarded motoryacht series. While at <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/706" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Scaro Design (Company)">Scaro Design</a> she met Fatih, a naval architect who studied at the same university, as did Emre Sandan, who also worked at <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/705" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Peri Yachts (Company)">Peri Yachts</a> and other Turkish shipyards before recently setting up his own engineering company, Mes Marine.“There was a nucleus of designers and naval architects who graduated from Yıldız Technical University and started working in yachting when the Turkish industry was taking off,” says Fatih. “We were reunited with Emre when he was shipyard manager at <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/2926" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Sarp Yachts (Company)">Sarp Yachts</a> and we were chosen to create the exterior and interior design of the XSR series.”<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/286676/image/large-721d8b3c89275bae9dd7325a93babc55.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/286676">The first in <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/2926" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Sarp Yachts (Company)">Sarp</a>’s XSR 85 series, aptly named <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Yacht/7582" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Edge26.0m (85'4&quot;)Sarp Yachts2022">Edge</a>, debuted at last year’s <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Event/121" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Cannes Yachting Festival - 2022">Cannes Yachting Festival</a> and stole the show with its youthful design ethos and bright Porsche Guards Red hull. Designed and built with intelligence, originality and a big dollop of fun, in terms of layout, creativity and efficiency the 26-metre yacht was in many ways a precursor to <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/5259" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Mazu Yachts (Company)">Mazu</a>’s new displacement series.&nbsp;Like <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Yacht/7582" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Edge26.0m (85'4&quot;)Sarp Yachts2022">Edge</a>, the <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/5259" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Mazu Yachts (Company)">Mazu</a> 92DS <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Yacht/11048" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Waterlily28.45m (93'4&quot;)Mazu Yachts2023">Waterlily</a> sports chunky crossover styling, but pushes the design boundaries even further. The raised pilothouse is positioned well forward to maximise the interior volumes and aft deck space, the vertical bow adds visual impact and increases the waterline length, and the two-tone paintwork introduces a striking new aesthetic. Not only is it <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/5259" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Mazu Yachts (Company)">Mazu</a>’s first displacement model, it is also the first steel-hulled yacht to be equipped with triple <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/5350" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Volvo Penta (Company)">Volvo Penta</a> IPS propulsion.“The edgy proportions and exterior lines of the DS series are inspired by the design DNA of <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/5259" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Mazu Yachts (Company)">Mazu</a>’s fast runabouts,” says Fatih. “The idea was to create something new and different with huge windows, generous interior volumes and big exterior spaces. Having the IPS engines so far aft helped a lot in terms of layout and meant we could create a massive beach club in the stern.”<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/241189/image/large-9019ae7b530840f6c0924bdaf2f238a7.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/241189">Cana’s interior design is based on a summerhouse aesthetic: cool, calming and casual with oak veneers, light-coloured fabrics and occasional stand-out statements like the backlit feature wall in the main salon made of thinly cut sections of stone. The couple made a conscious effort to avoid using rare materials and are firm believers in the ‘less is more’ school of thought summed up in Coco Chanel’s famous advice about fashion accessories: “Before you leave the house, look in the mirror and take one thing off.”“We don’t like palatial or extravagant interiors,” says Cana, a keen sailor who recently completed an RYA Competent Crew Course in Southampton. “It’s a question of taste, of course, but if we don’t feel it we don’t do it. Luxury is not about stuffing boats full of rare and expensive materials; it’s more about taking away. Simplicity is better than embellishment. Just being out at sea with friends and family is a luxury in itself. The experience is what’s important and we’re already talking with clients about reducing the quantity of interior materials on board.”&nbsp;As nominal head of design at the <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/4720" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Red Yacht Design (Company)">Red Yacht Design</a> (they avoid formal titles) Cana jokes she is the brains behind the operation, but it is clear they relish being able to work together on both the interior and exterior design of projects along with their 10-person strong team in London and Istanbul.&nbsp;“I don’t like when there is a mismatch between the interior and exterior styling,” says Fatih. “It can sometimes be a surprise, but usually the effect is jarring. Working on both means they develop in tandem and we avoid any discrepancies in style.”<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/113293/image/large-45201de725fcff303c860c9c8e1e4666.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/113293">While <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Yacht/7582" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Edge26.0m (85'4&quot;)Sarp Yachts2022">Edge</a> was the first to hit the headlines and <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Yacht/11048" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Waterlily28.45m (93'4&quot;)Mazu Yachts2023">Waterlily</a> is sure to bring more media exposure, Red Yacht Design has been busy on other larger projects.

We’ve been lucky so far that the yards we’ve worked with have all been bold and brave and also want to make an impact.

Turkish studio Scaro Design and Aeon Yachts has released its latest project in the Aeon yacht range. The new 380 is a striking motor yacht that is designed and engineered to deliver a thrilling at-sea experience through the impressive wraparound glass structures on the main and upper decks.

<img alt="" src="https://syt-store-production.s3.eu-west-1.amazonaws.com/photo/166111/image/large-edc06f1830c8572e89a4956ba314ebf3.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/166111">

Inspired by the field of luxury automotive design, the Aeon 380 is all about sleek and sensual lines with a strong and industrial feel for a dramatic effect. A high freeboard paired with racy hull lines lends a dynamic effect to the yacht even when she is at anchor.

Guests will appreciate the variety of outdoor areas on board which stretch over four different areas from her spacious foredeck with its dramatic winged sun bed all the way aft to the oversized lounge area on the main deck.
