Kenshō

Kenshō

The quality of living at sea Kenshō is an invitation to be closer to nature. But it’s also the personal story of an enlightened explorer of ideas, and his quest to redefine the beauty, joy and profound pleasure of yachting; to revel in the spirit and thrill of navigation of the seas with all of its sensory splendor. Kenshō is the embodiment of something that is new, personal and ground-breaking.

The design team of Azure Yacht Design, Holger Schulze-Seeger, and Agence Jouin Manku dared to imagine more. Lead by their passionate and inventive client, they designed a ground-breaking layout that sets a newly minted standard in super yacht functionality and luxury. Noble volumes flow uninhibited through 2.7 meters ceiling heights. Sight lines to the horizon are maximized in all four directions. Modularity and flexibility are incorporated to accommodate different moods and evoke a broad pallet of emotions. This is fringe dwelling integrated and creative design that ventures beyond the expected. Kenshō is more than a name; it’s a philosophy, informing everything from the reconfiguration of space to the choice of materials and how they are formed. Kenshō herself reimagines the boundaries of the current status quo.

Kenshō flows. She is the embodiment of an inspired vision that furnishes an optimal sea voyage experience. Coherent and remarkable, Kenshō's identity is an invitation to experience yachting differently. Kenshō is an acknowledgment of where we have come from, but also of where we are headed.
