FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Istanbul, Turkey - The Auramaris megayacht, designed by renowned Turkish interior architect Hasan Sefa Sofuoglu, has been awarded the prestigious Iron A' Design Award in the Interior Space, Retail and Exhibition Design category for 2025. Drawing inspiration from the depths of the sea and rich mythological elements, Auramaris stands out for its unique synthesis of serenity, strength, and elegance. The project, which began in early 2023 and is currently under construction, is set to redefine luxury yachting with its meticulously crafted interiors and innovative use of materials.
Auramaris's interior design is distinguished by its seamless integration of divine and maritime motifs, offering a visual and emotional journey for guests. The spaces are adorned with high-quality materials such as Turkish marble, fine wood veneers, bespoke leather, and modern metallic finishes, all crafted using advanced technologies like water jet cutting and CNC machining. Each detail, from the cornerless furniture to the custom block glass elements, is carefully considered to achieve a harmonious balance between aesthetics and practicality, ensuring both comfort and efficiency on board.
The design process was deeply rooted in user-centered research, incorporating feedback from industry experts, yacht owners, and maritime professionals to optimize ergonomics, material selection, and environmental sustainability. Overcoming significant technical challenges, including intricate glasswork and strict owner requirements, Sofuoglu and his team delivered innovative solutions that elevate both the form and function of the yacht's interior. The result is a modular, ergonomic environment that adapts to the needs of its users while maintaining a refined, luxurious atmosphere.
The Iron A' Design Award recognizes Auramaris as a well-designed, practical, and innovative creation that meets the highest professional and industrial standards. This accolade highlights Sofuoglu's commitment to pushing the boundaries of modern yacht design, offering a new benchmark for luxury, craftsmanship, and environmental harmony in the maritime industry.
