Bilgin Yacht projects coming in 2019: Bilgin 156, 220 and 263

As we move into the New Year, Bilgin Yachts is full of new ideas and hopes to bring yacht owners an ever better home - life at sea. While owners sail merrily across the seven seas, the shipyard works with world - renown designers to help loyal clients live their own dreams to the full.

Bilgin Yachts has been creating three new projects lately: Bilgin 156, 220 and 263.
The Bilgin 156 - II has the similar  features  with  47.5 - metre  Nerissa  that  had  debut  during  2017  Monaco  Yacht  Show.  The  yacht  is named as Lilium since it reflects the simplicity and minimalism in its design consisting of light colors, satin - gold tones while the use of black marble creates a contrast. The newest project Bilgin 220 has the length of 67 metre. Being under construction in Yalova, the yacht will bear masculine lines in its interior and exterior designs which  fit  in  its performance up to 17 knots. Last but not least, the 80 - metre Bilgin 263 I and II are getting  ready  in  the  shipyard’s newest facility West Istanbul Marina. The first unit - also  the  largest  Bilgin yacht up to date - will be launched in 2019.
“A genuine sense of long - term comfort on board” H2 Yacht Design

Having worked with the Bilgin Yacht’s build team previously on projects such as Nerissa, Giaola - Lu and M, the  H2  Yacht  Design  Team  thinks  that  design  in  the  superyacht  sector  is  always  changing,  and  new  and exciting lifestyle demands are driving that const ant shift. In their statement, they mention that it is a pleasure to work with Bilgin that actively looks to evolve with each project and they add, “we are particularly excited to bring the 80 - metre 263 to the water next year; a project which has been a re al journey for the team at H2 Yacht Design. We can’t say much about the project itself, but we can offer an insight into the lifestyle as a whole.  The  goal  was  to offer  guests  the  absolute,  not only  in  terms  of  space,  light  and  style  but  a genuine sense of long - term comfort on board. An 80 - metre is built to spend serious time at sea, so the interior and the experience becomes integral.”
“Freshness of the exterior area to the interior” Unique Yacht Design

According to Emrecan Özgün, the Founder and CEO of Unique Yacht Design, in 2019 balanced interior and exterior concepts will keep their popularity while people might look for theoretically small but practically large and comfortable living areas. He adds to his word that Bilgin 220 is a project designed from this point of view. He says, “This yacht offers a dolce vita to its guests. The exterior lines can be described as sexy, sharp, masculin, modern and most importantly timeless. You can see large windows and portholes which are de sign standards in today’s world. This definitely reflects the freshness of the exterior area to the interior.”

“Contemporary materials have different forms due to the technological developments. I highly believe that, we will see more futuristic designs in the coming year,” says İlkan Dovan, from Bilgin Yacht’s design team.
She describes the interior living areas o f Lilium as silky look with eucalyptus veneer, while saying that the yacht is the living form of a sunny and happy day. According to her, more daylight will design the design elements in future as it does in the main room and cabins of Lilium.
Mehmet Şengün, the General Manager of Bilgin Yachts approaches the yachting sector in a positive way while he believes in technology’s role in building yachts. “In a world where globalism and digitalism are highly important, we always see quite different and new designs in the market. Today, the yachting sector is in an expected point. We blend the designs with the developing technology in our designs while we always follow the trends around the world,” says Şengün. He states that Lilium will be seens as a timeless yacht thanks to the eucalyptus coating, brass and bronze mirrors.
