INTERIOR DECORATION INSPIRATION OF THE WEEK: REGENT SEVEN SEAS EXPLORER

The Regent Seven Seas Explorer cruise ship has been trademarked as “The Most Luxurious Ship Ever Built”. Three design teams executed the ships 473 crystal chandeliers and implemented acre’s worth of Italian marble. There are many different challenges when it comes to designing for ocean travel but this team pulled it off remarkably. The firms included Miami’s CallisonRTKLICRAVE, and Swedish firmTillberg.

From extravagant hand-beaded Maya Romanoff wallpapers to gold-leaf mosaic tiles the design team installed in the Explorer’s French restaurant to be more than luxurious. They were given a limitless budget and the motivation to go above and beyond in every aspect.

This 450 million dollar ship is the definition of luxury and extravagance. It possesses a double-height entrance atrium with spiral staircases and a massive, swanky Chelsom chandelier; a 6,000-pound Tibetan prayer wheel sculpture that cost $500,000 to fabricate; and a $10,000-per-night, 4,443 square-foot master suite with a $150,000 bed and a flashy gold bathroom.

This one of a kind ship cannot be duplicated. Regent Seven Seas Explorer embarked on its maiden voyage July 20th from Monte Carlo, Monaco and will sail the Mediterranean until November when it will head to the Caribbean for the winter season.

THIS INSTALLATION IN THE DESIGN DISTRICT COULD BE YOUR NEXT DESIGN MUSE

You must check out Marc Quinn’s Myth Fortuna sculpture of supermodel Kate Moss in the Miami Design District when you are in the area.

As you know we are always excited about the new high-end fashions and architectural projects always popping up in the Design District. This area contains ever-changing artistic masterpieces displayed throughout the posh streets.

The sculpture, which depicts supermodel Kate Moss performing a virtually impossible inversion-meets-back-bend yoga pose, is on loan from the Opera Gallery. The exclusive piece “explores the idea of Moss as an abstraction, an idealized figure who is more of a cultural hallucination than an actual person of flesh and blood,” says Opera Gallery Director Dan Benchetrit. “[Quinn] chose Moss because she’s an icon of our age.”

If you look closely you can find nature within this piece, “If you look at the sculpture, you will see an orchid with the legs and the arms” Benchetrit says.

You can find this installation on display in the District’s Paseo Ponti between Cartier and Hermès. This piece is truly inspirational and captures this city’s fusion of art, fashion, and fitness.
