About Goldfinger Яхт

Goldfinger консепсияи мега-яхти 65-метра буда, дорои профили берунии паст ва муҷассамашуда мебошад. Навори пайвастаи шишабандии паҳлӯӣ дар тӯли тамоми киштӣ мегузарад. Шишабандӣ ба фазоҳои асосии дохилӣ рӯшноии рӯзро ворид карда, манзараҳои васеи баҳрро фароҳам меорад. Бадани киштӣ аз қисматҳои блокии пӯлоди кафшершуда сохта шудааст, дар ҳоле ки саҳни сеюми болоӣ барои кам кардани вазни қисми болоӣ ва беҳтар намудани устуворӣ аз алюминий сохта шудааст. Кушодагиҳои калони тирезаҳо бо чорчӯбабандии бодиққат дастгирӣ мешаванд, ки сахтӣ ва обногузарии бадани пӯлодинро нигоҳ медорад. Чор саҳн минтақаҳои иҷтимоӣ, каютаҳои хусусӣ ва фазоҳои кушоди берунаро дар бар мегиранд.

Unique Properties
Goldfinger is a contemporary superyacht concept defined by a low, sculpted profile and a continuous ribbon of glazing that floods interiors with natural light while preserving privacy. Efficient hull lines and integrated terraces enhance seakeeping and outdoor living, delivering a discreet yet powerful presence underway and at anchor.
Dimensions & Packaging
Name: Goldfinger. Type: 65 m mega yacht. Length overall: 65 m, beam: 11,500 m. Construction: steel hull; aluminium upper third deck. Decks: lower deck, main deck, upper deck and open sun deck. Key feature: extensive full length side glazing for high daylight and panoramic sea views.

Production Technology
Steel hull fabricated in welded blocks sections, aligned on the building berth and fully seam welded. The upper third deck is aluminium to reduce topside weight and improve stability. After structural completion, all piping systems like fuel, fresh, grey, black water, tanks, hvac and electrical cableways are routed and fixed in place. Final phase: insulation and full interior outfit like bulkheads, ceilings, floors, furniture and finishes.
Design Challenge
The hardest challenge was integrating the full length side glazing while keeping structural stiffness, safety and buildability. large openings in a steel hull require careful framing, watertight detailing and compliance with class fire rules, while the aluminium upper deck had to minimize topside weight without compromising strength. The design balanced aesthetics, stability and production feasibility.
Research
Type of research: applied design research. Research objectives: define a 65 m concept with strong sea connection and balanced topside weight. Methodology: iterative exterior space studies and feasibility checks. Data collection and research tools used: reference benchmarking, 3D cad, naval architecture inputs. Results: full length glazing and lightweight upper deck strategy. Insights and Impacts: brighter interiors, stronger indoor outdoor experience. Effect: improved user comfort and perceived space.
Inspiration
Goldfinger takes its name from the iconic Sean Connery 007 film. Drawing on my experience as a mega yacht design supervisor, I develop new concepts where expansive sea facing glazing creates a direct, continuous connection with the horizon. The sculpted, low silhouette and long ribbon windows maximize daylight, enhance views, and balance privacy with a bold, contemporary presence.
Project Duration
The project was developed as a concept from February 2025 to January 2026 in Venice, Italy.
Operation Flow
Goldfinger is operated by a professional crew from the bridge; guests simply move through the yacht’s decks and outdoor areas. The large side windows bring daylight and sea views into the main interior spaces, making inside and outside feel connected. Daily flow is intuitive: arrival, social areas on main deck, private cabins on lower deck, relaxation on upper and sun deck.
