Q&A WITH COR D. ROVER, INTERIOR DESIGNER

What first motivated you to collaborate with Sirena Yachts?

CDR: "Besides the high ambitions and very serious approach of [CEO] Ms. Kirac personally – and the shipyard as a whole – towards becoming a big player in the marine industry, it must have been my passion for Turkey and its people as well. We have only been strengthened in this love affair during this project".

Can you explain the main differences between the cabin layout options for Sirena 88? CDR: "The standard layout has a total of five staterooms. The owners’ full beam stateroom forward on the main deck, a lower deck full beam VIP amidships, and another VIP in the forward section with a very interesting skylight feature on both sides. Two guest staterooms with twin beds and ensuite bathrooms complete the total of 10 guest beds. The yard offers the flexibility to turn any cabin into whatever the client dreams of, from gym to cinema to karaoke room or wellness spa".

Can you point out any interesting features in regard to light, whether natural or artificial?

CDR: "We tried to have as much natural light as possible in the interior with large glass panels and interesting skylight features. Artificial lighting is subtle and warm, the moment the sun has set" What desires, themes or motifs influenced the interior design?

CDR: "The interior of the 88 is based on creating a warm and inviting atmosphere that makes you feel at home, but also gives an exclusive feeling of relaxing enjoyment"

We used a selection of European brands but the larger part of the interior was done in-house. Like all global industry players we used the combination of European design with the excellent artisan skills that you find all around western Turkey. – Cor D. Rover 111
