Decisions: Decorating the Accomodations & Flybridge

This article will describe our interior design decisions with regard to the accommodations below deck including the master stateroom, master head, the VIP V-berth, the third stateroom and the second head.  It will also cover the flybridge. 

If you have read "Decisions: Decorating the Main Deck" then you know that we decided early on to have a transitional '"look" as opposed to the traditional or very modern Euro look.

Let's start with the master stateroom.  The photo below is the traditional look.  It presents a good view of this room's features, all of which our boat will have.  Notice the "half round" and lighting over the bed, the shoji screens, the lighting, the end tables on each side of the bed and the doors to the left.  The closest one is the entrance to the engine room and the next two contain shelves and drawers behind a door. There are two additional hanging lockers on the starboard side and storage behind doors to the right of the bed that are not visible.

Traditional Master Stateroom

Here's how our master stateroom will be different:

• Smooth faced woodwork on doors and drawers (see photo below)
• Wenge wood on horizontal surfaces with flat wenge bull nose
• Wenge trimmed headboard (see photo below)
• Rectilinear shoji screens (see photo below)
• Rectilinear lighting (see photo below)

Our master stateroom will look like this (except for the marble on the flat surfaces)

The two photos below show the materials that will be used in the master stateroom.

Same materials with different light.  To the left is platinum beige marble for the master head and a pillow fabric with fish

Those materials along with the wenge trim will also be used in the VIP (V-berth) and 3rd stateroom. 

Traditional VIP (V-berth)

Both heads will have solid teak flooring with smooth cabinetry.  The sink tops and backslash will platinum beige (as shown in the second materials photo above).  The faucets will be single lever from the Brizo Siderna collection with, of course, matching hardware.

Now to the flybridge.  The deck is white fiberglass with beige non-skid.  The settee will be covered with Sunbrella Maxim Heather Beige (see photo below) with a white molded fiberglass table.  The Stidd helm chair will have a white powder coat pedestal with sand upholstery and frame.   The object is to pick up the beige white theme for a coordinated look.
