Seafaring Luxury
Sanlorenzo’s 64Steel Attila superyacht was designed by Officina Italiana Design in collaboration with the company’s in-house styling department, while Francesco Paszkowski Design conceived the luxurious interiors in a ‘modern South American style’
Italian shipbuilding company Sanlorenzo prides itself on channelling the best of its experience, craft and innovation into the creation of tailor-made yachts and superyachts. The newly launched 64Steel Attila superyacht — debuted at the annual Monaco Yacht Show in late 2019 — is yet another cutting-edge project that demonstrates the brand’s commitment to innovation in nautical design.
Ahead of her Monaco debut, the 64Steel Attila won the Best Interior Design award at the Cannes Yachting Festival World Yacht Trophies Gala Dinner. The superyacht’s design is the result of a collaboration between acclaimed luxury yacht architects Officina Italiana Design and Sanlorenzo’s in-house styling department, while the coastal-chic interiors are by Francesco Paszkowski and Margherita Casprini of award-winning yacht design studio Francesco Paszkowski Design.
The flagship of Sanlorenzo’s Steel range of superyachts, the 64Steel Attila boasts five decks and an internal maximum width of 12.5 metres, with a total length of 64 metres and an extendable exterior platform. Sleek, elegant exterior lines belie the large beam and ample internal volume. The superyacht boasts features typically found on larger boats, such as the Owner Deck (a private deck with a bow-facing bedroom and outdoor bathtub), a garage that can house two tenders of more than ten metres each, and a helipad that can be transformed into a beautiful solarium when not in use. Three swimming pools also feature, the most impressive of which sits to the rear of the main deck; measuring five metres in length, its glass bottom and walls allow dappled light to filter into the beach club below.
Other innovative solutions designed to maximise onboard liveability include a sweeping marble-lined double staircase connecting the pool and dining area on the main deck to the lower-deck beach club and wellness centre complete with a sauna, hammam, massage room and gym. The staircase splits halfway to become a double-height space, amplifying the sense of spaciousness in the entire area. When the bow mirror and side platforms are opened, the beach club spans a generous 78 square metres.
Breathtaking as the 64Steel Attila is from the exterior, with her numerous outdoor social areas, pools and balconies, the interiors are the real highlight. Paszkowski and Casprini designed them in a ‘modern South American’ style; the palette of natural materials includes nubuck leather, six types of marble, and teak walls and floors, while a mix of Italian and custom-designed furniture fills the interiors. There’s an emphasis on dining too, with each deck accorded its own restaurant-worthy dining area and a large barbecue area built into the main deck. Rounding out the catering set-up is a marble-lined cold store and climate-controlled wine cellar.
Available across Asia from Simpson Marine, the 64Steel Attila is a testament to Sanlorenzo’s commitment to marrying technology and craft in order to provide an authentic and luxurious sense of seagoing adventure.
