The Vertical Yacht skyscraper

Design by George Lucian and interior by Hannah Sahra.

The Vertical Yacht Skyscraper concept:
As you might know already Hannah Sahra has introduced the Vertical Yacht Skyscraper concept. And Hannah focuses on developing the highest interior standards in yachting, private aviation, residential properties. If you know Hanna provides interior styling and design; thus handling holistic projects with interior management. Eventually, when selecting fixtures, furnishings, and equipment, Hannah always will seek out the best and most durable brands for you. And who does she cooperate with to shape customized proposals based on the Owner’s requirements and needs?

As you can see, all in metallic materials, and the interior reminds me of a Superyacht. Moreover, how does Hannah ensure art is a valued contribution to the owner’s interior style? What’s more, she works closely with a group of esteemed artists and galleries for an exclusive choice befitting the taste of the studio’s clientele. Furthermore, in collaboration with the award-winning exterior designer George Lucian, who joins Hannah Sahra in proposing a skyscraper design to complete the future skyline of Manhattan or any region where a golden state-of-the-art skyscraper would fit in the landscape?

George Lucian is popular in the Superyacht Industry with a series of extraordinary superyacht concepts. These include the 65m Roswell and the 100m Project Origami, a mega sailing yacht inspired by the art of origami and traditional Asian vessels. What other concepts does George Lucian specialize in?

Following the series of ultra-slender skyscrapers under construction on Billionaires’ Row, New York, near 57th Street and 6th Avenue, a new proposed skyscraper is pushing the boundaries of architecture and design even further. How is this new skyscraper innovating compared to its predecessors?

“The Vertical Yacht” is a design with its exterior inspired by one of the sculptures of the famous Romanian world-renowned sculptor, Constantin Brancusi. Whose permanent exhibition is just a couple of streets away at the MOMA NY? Covered in copper, bronze, terracotta, and similar look-alike metallic materials, how does the building offer dramatic views at each sunset? It is designed to be a residential building, offering the highest level of luxury and exclusivity for future owners.

Hence “The Vertical Yacht”, derives its inspiration from both its exterior shape and interior design, which draw from the opulence of superyachts: How does this fusion create a uniquely luxurious atmosphere and lifestyle for its residents? Additionally, each envisioned apartment, as showcased in the interior images, promises a spectacular 360-degree view over New York City’s iconic skyline, encompassing landmarks like Central Park. Could you tell me more about the building’s height and the number of floors it will feature?

So would you think The Vertical Yacht be ideal in more landscapes that would reflect the beautiful sand? Just like the under-development cities of MASDAR, at Abu Dhabi? Or NEOM, in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia? How would The Vertical Yacht offer sandstorm watching? Progressively by provides the feeling of being one with the desert and nutrient-rich sand for ocean life. And how could you think of the golden skyscraper, towering over the city with its artistic looks? consequently to become a neighborhood of similar tall buildings and highlight the city? while providing a security system on the top floors; thus efficient to avoid invading unmanned vehicles and drones.
