The newest ship from luxury cruise line seabourn boasts fabulous design and plenty of attitude, says gary buchanan.
The fourth vessel in Seabourn’s fleet, Seabourn Encore offers space for 600 guests and has small ship attitude in spades. Its interiors were created by the celebrated New York-based designer Adam D Tihany, renowned for his work on some of the world’s most iconic hotels, and built in Italy.
Tihany explained that he envisaged something “a bit sexier” than Seabourn’s Odyssey-class ships. The results are certainly impressive and encapsulate the artistry of fine living.
Having worked for four years on the design concept, Tihany sought to bring his hallmark of intimacy and detail to Seabourn Encore. “I watched how guests and crew interacted with the Seabourn Odyssey-class ships,” he told Cruise International. “I was adamant that my vision of a Seabourn ship would be more fluid and sleek. To achieve this I swapped the angular, Nordic-style elements for a more curvaceous and sinuous realisation of a luxurious Italian yacht.”
