Design Details

Unique Properties
The exterior decor, designed by the yard, has a drastic reduction of the fiberglass surface due to a green attitude, on the side larger windows, brighter inside and more sea view panorama. Internal surface as increased thanks to suppression of a external lateral passage. The prow area is accessable by a sea Promenade from the cockpit. This superyacht has been projected following blue mind philosophy as therapy against burnout with a non stop contact with the sea wherever the guest is positionated in the cabins, saloon and also the galley and bathrooms are in connexion with the deep blue waters.
Inspiration
The new model Amer F 100 is focused on the use of natural light as decoration element and maintains a strong technological push with the use of new technical materials for construction. The yacht has an elegant and sinuous livery, she is evening dark dressed. Crystal large windows like precious embedded diamonds. Light and shadow are considered an aestetical intangible decor which play on mat and brilliant and metallic surfaces and a dancing sea reflex to date the day time from the sunrise to the sunset from each deck.
Research
The new model Amer F 100 is focused on the use of natural light as decoration element and maintains a strong technological push with the use of new technical materials for construction. Grey, black and white colors have been inspired at Moon Landing 50 years anniversary.
Challenge

The natural brightness not only for lighting and reducing energy consumption but it plays a cromatic rule for the interior scenery creating optical dynamic modifications thanks to artistic effects for sinuous geometries and reflections deriving from the different sunlight inclination, sea waves or moon light. A maze of natural sensation to return to the purity of contemporary classic and endless style.
