Like her pioneering sistership Home, Orion will feature Heesen\u2019s innovative hybrid propulsion system offering silent cruising, flexible power management and maximum energy efficiency. The yacht also features a lavish interior, and Heesen sat down with Gatto to learn more.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Lessons in layout<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Project Orion is the fifth hull in Heesen\u2019s advanced and ultra-efficient 50-metre FDHF aluminium series. This prior experience is a huge advantage, says Gatto, who has penned the interiors for all the yachts in the series to date.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe are able to learn from the sisterships that have been built, delivered and experienced by their owners, and adjust the interiors accordingly,\u201d he says. \u201cIt allows us to understand which areas work well as planned, and how owners like to use the available spaces on board.\u201d<br \/>\nOne important change to Orion\u2019s layout, which Gatto believes makes the biggest difference, sees the lower deck gym moved further aft, putting it in direct connection with the beach club.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt\u2019s now a multifunctional space that can be used as a gym and for exercise sessions or serves as an extension to the beach club with access to the sauna, steam room and, of course, the ocean,\u201d he says.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Efficient propulsion<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Project Orion\u2019s super-efficient propulsion also comes as a direct consequence of all the in-house research that Heesen carries out, says Gatto. Home was the first Heesen yacht fitted with hybrid propulsion, and the expectations for Project Orion\u2019s propulsion package is for even bigger improvements.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI remember when we delivered Home, we left the port at 8 knots and there were zero vibrations and zero noise,\u201d says Gatto. \u201cIt was unbelievably quiet \u2013 the kind of peaceful sailing where you follow the winds and appreciate life on calm seas. The owner of Project Orion can look forward to enjoying that type of experience aboard his yacht on many different occasions.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><strong>Designer decor<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Covid-19 highlighted how much of an intimate escape the yachting lifestyle offers, where owners and guests can enjoy peace and privacy in a safe and comfortable environment with family and friends. It\u2019s this essence of tranquillity that Gatto has aimed for with Project Orion\u2019s interior, where the choice of d\u00e9cor, colours and materials reflect the quality of the yacht\u2019s construction.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe always look forward to working with the lucky owner to finalise the more personal details of the loose furniture and tweak the interiors, but our main goal is to provide an interior that evokes richness and peace,\u201d he says.<\/p>\n<p>Project Orion\u2019s interior comprises veneers, leathers and marbles that come together to produce a series of sophisticated combinations. Multiple types of wood also feature on board, including farmed teak and high-gloss and matte Ebony that has been sourced from sustainably certified forestry. \u201cUsing these types of wood delivers the same level of quality and yet is much better for our planet,\u201d says Gatto.<\/p>\n<p>Within Project Orion\u2019s beach club, Gatto also selected a synthetic teak substitute for the decking, which is sustainable, resistant and durable, available in a wide selection of colours and finishes for personalisation, and requires far less maintenance. \u201cI\u2019m always trying to find and use new alternative materials, and in terms of its longevity and guest usage this teak substitute is highly successful,\u201d he says.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Looking forward<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Project Orion is currently in build and on schedule for delivery in 2025. In the meantime, Heesen and Gatto are collaborating on another exciting yacht \u2013 the full-custom all aluminium motor yacht, \u00a0\u00a0.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cFor us as designers, Project Setteesettanta presents a really appealing challenge as a full custom yacht, and I believe it\u2019s on the path to becoming a Heesen flagship,\u201d says Gatto. \u201cIt ticks all the boxes for a great project that possesses Heesen\u2019s DNA.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>You can watch this episode <a href=\"https:\/\/www.heesenyachts.com\/yachttalk\/cristiano-gatto-on-project-orion\/\">here<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>In episode three of YachtTalk Season 4, Heesen continues its discussion with renowned Italian superyacht designer, Cristiano Gatto, who is currently working on several projects for the Dutch shipyard, including Project Orion.
