Behind this rather matter-of-fact name lies a sleek 44.5-metre yacht, entirely built in aluminium by the (Italian) shipbuilder Sanlorenzo. All the fittings were entrusted to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.studioliaigre.com\/fr\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">Studio Liaigre<\/a>, under the responsibility of Guillaume Rolland.<\/p>\n<p>The brief given by the client and owner of this luxurious sea vessel was short and simple: the yacht was to convey a dialogue between Asian culture and the iconic &#8220;French touch&#8221; that has become the hallmark of the Liaigre teams. They took up the challenge with relish and realised the dream of a hedonist anxious to express his conception of yachting pushed to its ultimate expression of refinement. More than an art, an art of living.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_6397\" style=\"width: 910px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-6397\" class=\"center wp-image-6397\" title=\"VILLAS Decoration Liaigre yachting\" src=\"https:\/\/www.villasdecoration.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/LIAIGRE_Sanlorenzo_09-scaled.jpg\" alt=\"VILLAS Decoration Liaigre yachting\" width=\"900\" height=\"693\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.villasdecoration.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/LIAIGRE_Sanlorenzo_09-scaled.jpg 2560w, https:\/\/www.villasdecoration.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/LIAIGRE_Sanlorenzo_09-768x592.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.villasdecoration.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/LIAIGRE_Sanlorenzo_09-1536x1183.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.villasdecoration.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/LIAIGRE_Sanlorenzo_09-2048x1577.jpg 2048w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 900px) 100vw, 900px\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-6397\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Mark Seelen<\/p><\/div>\n<div id=\"attachment_6394\" style=\"width: 910px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-6394\" class=\"center wp-image-6394\" title=\"VILLAS Decoration Liaigre yachting\" src=\"https:\/\/www.villasdecoration.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/LIAIGRE_Sanlorenzo_10-scaled.jpg\" alt=\"VILLAS Decoration Liaigre yachting\" width=\"900\" height=\"557\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.villasdecoration.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/LIAIGRE_Sanlorenzo_10-scaled.jpg 2560w, https:\/\/www.villasdecoration.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/LIAIGRE_Sanlorenzo_10-768x475.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.villasdecoration.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/LIAIGRE_Sanlorenzo_10-1536x951.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.villasdecoration.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/LIAIGRE_Sanlorenzo_10-2048x1268.jpg 2048w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 900px) 100vw, 900px\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-6394\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Mark Seelen<\/p><\/div>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Luxury_in_simplicity\"><\/span>Luxury in simplicity<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>The play of materials.

They are warmed up by the addition of deep tones, Prussian blue leather in the cockpit, garnet-coloured leather in the dining room and celadon green facing an onyx bar in the smoking room. Not forgetting a palette of whites and creams, particularly on the deck. While each new project has its own unique story to tell, says Guillaume Rolland, there is no mistaking the Liaigre signature that is freely expressed throughout: an apparent simplicity, or at least a conscious attempt at non-ostentatious luxury, and a timeless aesthetic designed to highlight the beauty of the material.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_6403\" style=\"width: 565px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-6403\" class=\"center wp-image-6403\" title=\"VILLAS Decoration Liaigre yachting\" src=\"https:\/\/www.villasdecoration.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/LIAIGRE_Sanlorenzo_07-scaled.jpg\" alt=\"VILLAS Decoration Liaigre yachting\" width=\"555\" height=\"800\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.villasdecoration.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/LIAIGRE_Sanlorenzo_07-scaled.jpg 1776w, https:\/\/www.villasdecoration.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/LIAIGRE_Sanlorenzo_07-768x1107.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.villasdecoration.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/LIAIGRE_Sanlorenzo_07-1066x1536.jpg 1066w, https:\/\/www.villasdecoration.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/LIAIGRE_Sanlorenzo_07-1421x2048.jpg 1421w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 555px) 100vw, 555px\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-6403\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Mark Seelen<\/p><\/div>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"On_a_boat_everything_is_a_matter_of_flow\"><\/span>On a boat, everything is a matter of flow<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Fluidity is the key feature of any boat. The SL44 expresses this freedom of movement in its design, fittings and furniture. As Guillaume Rolland succinctly puts it, sailing on a yacht is above all about living on it. The focus must therefore be on the comfort of the interior and exterior spaces, and their ability to offer moments of conviviality, but also an environment conducive to rest. This fluidity of space is reinforced by a play of transparencies.<\/p>\n<p>The partitions, or to put it more accurately, the walls of partitions, are never put right up against the structure of the boat, they are perforated and fit into the space like floating panels and contribute to the feeling of well-being that emanates from the entire layout. In the cabin, there are no sharp angles, just curves and round lines that give an immediate feeling of softness.<\/p>\n<p>The yacht has been designed as a floating apartment where each room opens onto a different viewpoint. This architectural concept is unique for a yacht this size. The idea is to take advantage of each given space to exploit and optimise all of its functionalities by offering multiple possibilities to the owner.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_6412\" style=\"width: 910px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-6412\" class=\"center wp-image-6412\" title=\"VILLAS Decoration Liaigre yachting\" src=\"https:\/\/www.villasdecoration.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/LIAIGRE_Sanlorenzo_04-scaled.jpg\" alt=\"VILLAS Decoration Liaigre yachting\" width=\"900\" height=\"593\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.villasdecoration.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/LIAIGRE_Sanlorenzo_04-scaled.jpg 2560w, https:\/\/www.villasdecoration.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/LIAIGRE_Sanlorenzo_04-768x506.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.villasdecoration.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/LIAIGRE_Sanlorenzo_04-1536x1013.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.villasdecoration.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/LIAIGRE_Sanlorenzo_04-2048x1350.jpg 2048w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 900px) 100vw, 900px\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-6412\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Mark Seelen<\/p><\/div>\n<div id=\"attachment_6400\" style=\"width: 556px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-6400\" class=\"center wp-image-6400\" title=\"VILLAS Decoration Liaigre yachting\" src=\"https:\/\/www.villasdecoration.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/LIAIGRE_Sanlorenzo_08-scaled.jpg\" alt=\"VILLAS Decoration Liaigre yachting\" width=\"546\" height=\"800\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.villasdecoration.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/LIAIGRE_Sanlorenzo_08-scaled.jpg 1747w, https:\/\/www.villasdecoration.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/LIAIGRE_Sanlorenzo_08-768x1125.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.villasdecoration.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/LIAIGRE_Sanlorenzo_08-1048x1536.jpg 1048w, https:\/\/www.villasdecoration.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/LIAIGRE_Sanlorenzo_08-1398x2048.jpg 1398w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 546px) 100vw, 546px\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-6400\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Mark Seelen<\/p><\/div>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Sailing_an_art_of_living\"><\/span>Sailing: an art of living<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Are superyachts the last &#8220;spaces of freedom&#8221;? For Guillaume Rolland, Yacht Designer at Liaigre, sailing offers a perception of space and time that allows us to escape from our usual landmarks and reconnect with the elements. Admiring the sea, gazing out at the horizon, having the choice of destination are absolute luxuries in today\u2019s world. A luxury of remarkable simplicity that is also found in a multitude of details that are not immediately obvious, but that make all the difference and have always characterised Liaigre&#8217;s specific approach. A light atmosphere for the day rooms, darker ones for the spaces dedicated to nightlife and parties, a solarium, swimming pool and beach club on the water&#8217;s edge, everything about this yacht exudes relaxation and the art of living.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_6406\" style=\"width: 910px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-6406\" class=\"center wp-image-6406\" title=\"VILLAS Decoration Liaigre yachting\" src=\"https:\/\/www.villasdecoration.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/LIAIGRE_Sanlorenzo_06-scaled.jpg\" alt=\"VILLAS Decoration Liaigre yachting\" width=\"900\" height=\"617\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.villasdecoration.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/LIAIGRE_Sanlorenzo_06-scaled.jpg 2560w, https:\/\/www.villasdecoration.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/LIAIGRE_Sanlorenzo_06-768x527.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.villasdecoration.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/LIAIGRE_Sanlorenzo_06-1536x1053.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.villasdecoration.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/LIAIGRE_Sanlorenzo_06-2048x1404.jpg 2048w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 900px) 100vw, 900px\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-6406\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Mark Seelen<\/p><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Yachting is an architectural challenge at which Liaigre excels.
