Written by Zuzana Bednarova

The currently running Monaco Yacht Show saw the French design studio, VPLP , unveil their latest 282-foot trimaran mega yacht KOMOREBI, a Japanese concept representing the time when nature is enhanced by the sun’s rays. Superyacht KOMOREBI is an efficient and highly stable vessel, capable of crossing oceans, but agile and shallow-drafted enough to enter small places.

The fully automated wings of luxury yacht KOMOREBI concept are powerful enough to drive her at 15 knots with 20 knots of wind with no engine on and save at least 30% of fuel on hybrid mode in a crossing.

Openness inside the vessel as well as out is reflected in the design of KOMOREBI superyacht, flooded with natural light. Each particular area of the vessel is designed to suite a special moment of the day, offering privacy, as well as conviviality for everyone on board. Moreover, there is a wonderful selection of large tenders, submarine, sailing boats, and much more on offer.

As stated by VPLP: “We believe designed elegance is not only a question of style, balance of proportions and harmony of lines it is also related to coherence and cleverness. Don’t we use the word “elegant” for a smart solution to a problem? Despite her length we want KOMOREBI not to appear dominant and overwhelming – we want a sweet giant who we can all love.”

The 282-Foot Komorebi Trimaran Concept Is Incredible

By Victor Baker

Updated on August 31, 2017

The 282-foot sailing yacht concept you see here was named Komorebi, after the Japanese word komorebi which means ‘curtain of light’. Penned down by the VPLP Design team, this beautiful yacht was imagined as one of vessels filled with the most natural light, with floor to ceiling windows throughout the yacht and majestic open floor plans.

The main saloon for instance will offer a mesmerizing interior design, with serene views of the surrounding ocean, the swimming pool and the yacht’s small garden that even includes a living tree. Komorebi will be also green in terms of propulsion, with automated wing sails helping it achieve speeds of up to 15 knots in a 20-knot wind.

Supposedly, the hybrid engine mode will allow the yacht to save 30 percent in fuel consumption during a transatlantic crossing which sounds great in theory. The future owners of this beauty will be able to store a small navy of water toys in its three hulls, as tenders, small sailboats and even mini submarines will have room in the elegant trimaran design of this vessel.

The large swim platform at the transom connects to an interior beach club, while a sky-deck provides space for alfresco dining and entertaining areas. We don’t know if Komorebi will ever get the green light, but we can just hope we’ll get to see this elegant and futuristic yacht on the high seas in the next year.

Van Peteghem – Lauriot Prévost: Komorebi

“She’s neither a sailing yacht nor a simple motoryacht – she’s both those things at once” is how  Marc Van Peteghem and Vincent Lauriot Prévost describe their latest concept. They have dubbed the 86-metre trimaran Komorebi, which is a Japanese term for sunlight filtering through trees.

The effect they wanted to create was a sense of gentle tranquillity that would free the imagination and invite occupants to savour life. A strikingly different message from a duo known for their giant multihulls. When their 42-metreDouce France hit the water in 1998, she became – and would remain for several years – the world’s largest cruising cat. She and designs of the likes of the 145’ cat Hemisphere and 234’ motor cat concept Manifesto also ultimately led to the Komorebi concept. “This is a yacht capable of both tackling a round the world voyage and getting into even the trickiest mooring spots because of her shallow draft,” explains Mathias Maurios, a naval architect and one of the 12-strong design team that make up the VPLP staff with founders Marc van Peteghem and Vincent Lauriot Prévost. The project was unveiled just a year ago at the Monaco Yacht Show.

“We got going at the end of last winter,” continues Maurios, “and I think this is the first time that a hybrid craft with two rigid wing masts has been unveiled.  The reason we went for that approach is the efficiency of that kind of mast which is also twice that of a traditional sail. The second reason is that the two “wings” of 380 square metres apiece are automated and require no input from the crew.

Both feature monitoring systems and automatically adjust to suite wind direction and force plus they are coupled with two 3,300 hp engines. The entire system self-regulates to obtain the desired speed. This means the yacht will use engine power only when there’s no wind and when there is wind, can function either with a combination of motor and wing power or wing power only”. Computer modelling indicates that in 20 knots of wind, Komorebi can make 15 knots using her wings alone while if she combines them with motor power she will make a 30 per cent saving on fuel. “We chose to focus on different propulsion configurations, on range rather than speed. Quality of life and onboard comfort are more important to us,” concludes Maurios.

As suggested by her name, the mooted Komorebi centres around relaxation and establishing a harmonious relationship with nature. The result is that the interiors exude a hushed beauty that still also feel wide open to the outside world and offer plenty of private areas. “Light flows in everywhere,” continues Maurios, “and the openings are a dominant factor. We wanted the luxury of space too. Every area is designed for a particular time of the day to offer guests private spaces as well as communal ones.” Speaking of which, Komorebi can welcome up to 18 guests. Her owner has the whole of the upper deck to himself including a 172 square metre suite and two children’s cabins, studies for both owner and youngers, a private lounge and pantry and, of course, al fresco terraces. Six 34 square metre guest staterooms are on the main deck where there’s also a Japanese garden aft and a 6.5 x .8 metre pool in addition to a heli pad on the foredeck.

Aft on the lower deck is the beach club, a gym, a hammam with sauna, spa, crew quarters and technical areas. The bow section is given over to the tender garage where two service craft plus a 10-metre limousine are stowed in addition to numerous water toys. “We haven’t completely finished developing the interior design,” explains Maurios. “But essentially, it will centre around light, transparency and sea views. Glass and light wood will be the main materials. These are functional minimalist interiors but they’re warm too: a place where guests will be happy. Elegance isn’t just a question of style, balanced proportions and harmonious lines, it’s also about consistency and ability”.

VPLP has poured all of its considerable experience into Komorebi, which sends out a message that’s clear and simple but also a tough call: “Despite her dimensions, we want Komorebi to be a giantess that appeals to everyone.”  Well, the concept has already won its fair share of admirers and the French studio has been contacted by potential  owners with an interest in a Komorebi-style craft of their own. “Some of 86 metres and others smaller at around 40 to 60. But it will take three years to actually build one,” concludes Mathias Maurios. So we have some more time to wait before we see a Komorebi afloat. However, it will be more than worth the wait.
