ORIGAMI for sale

The 65m ORIGAMI is a mono-hull support yacht that bears the exterior aesthetic of a modern and architecturally advanced luxury superyacht. And with this design concept, ORIGAMI is a superyacht support vessel unlike any other.

By name and by nature, ORIGAMI’s aluminium hull takes inspiration from the Japanese practice of folding paper – a technique that has impacted how designers have perceived, designed, and built architecture since the 17th century. Here, the delicate papers have been replaced by aluminium plates, folded and intersected to create angular, geometric forms that shape and stretch across the superstructure.

Designed by Kirsten Schwalgien of the award-winning studio Schwalgien Design, ORIGAMI’s 12-metre beam and 3-metre draft will allow her to carry a fuel load for global operation in support of the superyacht mothership. These go-anywhere capabilities are enhanced further by incorporation of a helicopter hangar, concealed within the superstructure, that allows for a helicopter to be stowed without having to fold the blades – providing heightened protection and permitting truly worldwide travel.

Another notable feature of this support yacht’s design is the large tender deck with sufficient space for as many as three large tenders, or a combination of tenders, submersible, and water toys.

Within, ORIGAMI has accommodation for a crew of 22 and offers a spacious crew lounge and gym, providing significantly expanded crew quarters to aid extended cruising, expedition operations, and superior guest service.

The interior layout of ORIGAMI can be adapted to suit client requirements and is intended to offer flexibility. The space can be arranged with larger cabins for the accommodation of additional guests, or the interior could be given over to functional purpose such as housing scientific laboratories or research centres.

ORIGAMI has been priced to build with a European shipyard. Further details are available upon request.
