Migma is a hydrogen-powered electric catamaran of 180 feet. The vessel runs without noise and without emissions. The name comes from the Greek word for mixture, and refers to the blend of technical rationality and natural fluidity. The exterior structure is inspired by animal shells and is made mainly of duralumin, with electrochromatic smart glass. A central stairway shaped like a spine links the lower deck, the salon and meeting level and the pilot house above. The interior is minimalist and offers panoramic views.

- Migma Design Project is conceptualized to brake the rules of Yacht design, having a view to the past and current shapes we detected the need to lighten up its weight and thinking new ways of creating spaces. The main idea is to keep it alive, aimed by nature, protecting itself from the exterior and maintaining a warm essence inside.
- Project Duration
- Project developed at Ruma-Design SL in Madrid, Spain.
The Project started from November 2019 and finished in Febraury 2020. - Operation Flow
- Migma offers a minimalist feeling and luxury identity for high class society. The user experience has been conceptualized for business meetings where the central salon is the most relevant area in the core of the boat. Other use is for recreational purposes, offering two big luxury staterooms with ensuite heads and a broad front electrochromatic smart glass wall facing the ocean. Every space has been thought to have 360 degrees panoramic views, ending with a floating edge swiming pool.
- Research
- Migma is the perfect simbiosis between Nature and Technology. The exterior structure, inspired by animal shells, is connected with the interior spaces through the main stairway, shaped as a spine, which is located at the core and centre of gravity and extends from the bottom floor, where the galley, stateroom and heads are; across the mid floor, where the reception hall, salon and meeting room are placed; then finishing up above in the pilot house and sky lounge on the top floor.
- Inspiration
- Many creatures in nature, most famously crustaceans and clams, utilise hard shells and exoeskeletons in a myriad of ways to protect their bodies as they claim their place in the world. The Migma Catamaran project has been conceived to evoque a constant flow of growing lines and curves, rendering complex surfaces that embrace the rationality of flat surfaces. The boat itself acts as the link between both the rectilineal and fluid worlds.
