Virgin Voyages Previews Onboard Spaces for Its Debut Ships

Virgin Voyages offered a look at a selection of its new ship’s exterior public spaces and interior designs in New York this week as part of its “#ShipTease” series.
The line,于2016年10月揭幕, hand-picked its “Creative Collective” made up of top interior design firms including Tom Dixon’s Design Research Studio in London, Roman and Williams in New York, Concrete Amsterdam, Softroom in London and WorkAC in New York. Designing for the cruise industry is a first for all of the design partners.
混凝土阿姆斯特丹的创始人兼创意总监Rob Wagemans说:“维珍总是挑战陈词滥调。”“这艘船充满了对比。有很多平静的空间和许多非常疯狂的空间。我们确实使用了这种破坏性并试图真正改变观众的观点的哲学。”
Wagemans added that the ship can offer many different experiences throughout the day.

瓦格曼人说:“ [人们]可以从一个世界到另一个世界,从复杂到休闲,这可能会在一个小时内发生。”“这艘船将为不同的设计师提供所有这些不同的世界,它们都相反。您可以过上自己喜欢的生活方式,而不是品牌和船只所指示的生活方式。”
在纽约的汤姆·迪克森(Tom Dixon)表示,其设计对船的影响部分与“春季邮轮时代”有关。他说,他喜欢“在20年代和30年代的魅力和未来的魅力之间的某个地方”。
Virgin Voyages与Shipbuilder Fincantieri有三艘船。第一艘船将于送货,并将于2020年到达Portmiami,并将在其就职季节在加勒比海航行。它将有2700名“水手”和1,150名国际船员提供“游艇般的度假体验”。这艘船将是18岁及以上的“成人设计”。
"Virgin Voyages' entry into the marketplace will give travel partners, or our First Mates as we like to refer to them, an entirely new option to sell," said Stacy Shaw, Vice President of Sales and Business Development for Virgin Voyages. "I think what First Mates will love most about what we’re doing is that it will be very different from anything that exists today. The design of our ship is distinctly different; we purposely chose to work with world-class designers who bring a fresh perspective on how life at sea should look and feel."
Among the onboard spaces revealed this week was the top deck’s Richard’s Rooftop by Tom Dixon’s Design Research Studio. The private outdoor lounge will be for suite guests only. It boasts a futuristic nod with circular loungers and dichroic glass.

The ship’s upscale modern Mexican restaurant, Pink Agave, is also designed by Design Research Studio and features Tom Dixon’s pendant lighting in the entryway, electric blue metallic lighting fixtures, oversized banquets lining the room’s portholes, and an elongated curved lounger with round tables for two.

由混凝土阿姆斯特丹设计的户外休息室,体育俱乐部提供了许多嬉戏的元素。它的特色是海上最大的海床,同时在高架轨道上观看慢跑者,这是Wagemans指出的其中之一。它还可以选择在10个小屋上闲逛,俯瞰着饮料服务的海洋。
