Project Utopia – the Yacht Island of the Future
Before you can fully understand this concept that we will be presenting to you today, you have to clear your mind of everything you know.
Don’t think about the future or the past, don’t think about anything you know about objects and means of transportation.
Project Utopia is a collaboration between Yacht Island Design and BMT Nigel Gee and also an avant-garde concept that goes beyond everything you can think of.

If you saw yacht design and pictured a yacht in your head, you should stop thinking about it because this is no way the kind of yacht you are envisioning.
According to billionairesweb.com, before trying to understand the design one has to examine why the greater majority of yachts have evolved to the traditional form that has derived from millennia of engineering and naval architecture.
Once the mind is free from these constraints the possible forms that a concept might take are wide ranging.
Much is made in today’s design community of starting with a blank sheet of paper.
Yet many if not all yacht concepts revert back to that traditional form; the perception that a yacht should be a form of transport becomes an immediate constraint.
Utopia is not an object to travel in, it is a place to be, an island established for anyone who has the vision to create such a place.

Measuring 100m in length and breadth, and spanning over 11 decks with the equivalent volume of a present-day cruise liner there is enough space to create an entire micronation.
In today’s context Project Utopia might be viewed as a folly, an extravagant expression of architecture and form based on a perception of the future.
The visionary will, however, be able to grasp the paradigm shift and see the future as being totally unconstrained.
Key features
• 100m x 100m in size, with the equivalent deck space of today’s cruise liners.
• Space to create a bewildering amount of interior design options, such as a retail district, theatre, culinary zone containing an eclectic mix of restaurants and an entertainment zone featuring bars, nightclubs and a casino.
• An observatory deck with breath taking 360 degree views at a height of 65m above sea level.
• A true architectural, and engineering masterpiece designed to present the smallest possible profile to the water’s surface.
Utopia is mainly focused for a commercial use. According to the 11 decks, there are many solutions possible to create a very succesful business tool out from Utopia.
This could be for example:
VIP Hotel Club
Casino operations
Club or/and Event center
