ROSSINAVI LAUNCHES 50-METRE FULL-CUSTOM MOTOR YACHT PIACERE

Pisa, Italy, 23 June 2021 – Italian shipyard Rossinavi has presented in their facility of Pisa its latest superyacht, Piacere, a 50-metre full displacement hull vessel, able to navigate in all type of sea conditions.

Commissioned by a private American client introduced to Rossinavi by Javier Navarro of Zarpo Yachts, Piacere is a tailor-made motor yacht once again entirely designed with the owner in mind boasting key components and features that are US-standard.

On this occasion, Rossinavi’s own team of naval engineers has collaborated for the exterior architecture of Piacere with Horacio Bozzo Design, the superyacht design studio from Viareggio, the shipyard’s hometown. Venice-based architecture and design practice Team for Design – Enrico Gobbi, a longstanding collaborator of Rossinavi’s, was responsible for the interior styling of Piacere.

As per Horacio Bozzo’s words, the boat’s name Piacere, explains its philosophy fully. In fact, Piacere translates into “pleasure”, which means to enjoy family and life. The concept of exterior design and the distribution of spaces was conceived around this basic but universal notion.

‘Piacere represents the owners’ lifestyle in everything and the vessel is the perfect union between style and functionality’. Horacio Bozzo, Principal, Horacio Bozzo Design.

Key design specifications include:

‘For the interiors, we wanted to create an open and bright environment, enhanced by natural shades and soft shapes for a fresh yet refined atmosphere. Piacere is a timeless and elegant masterpiece and a testament to the made in Italy. Its harmonic forms and clean lines are emphasized by a touch of prestigious materials, which give the interior a refined look.’ Enrico Gobbi, Principal, Team for Design – Enrico Gobbi

With its elegant interior features, Piacere is an elegant combination of contemporary and modern design boasting made to measure furniture, accessories and finishes. Enrico Gobbi’s signature style is very evident in this project with the mix of flamed walnut and matte finish that are skilfully combined to the essence of light Tay and white lacquered surfaces that result in a chromatic contrast on the walls. The combination of precious materials, including steel and marble, emphasizes the artisanship and preciousness of each single object of carpentry and everything is made in Italy.

‘Piacere is the result of an encounter between two families; Rossinavi, a family of builders, and the owner’s close family. Rossinavi carefully listened to the needs and dreams of the owner who shared stories from the extensive experience of enjoying the sea and the desire for a boat entirely tailored to their needs. We are grateful to Javier Navarro for the introduction and for their key support during the development of the project. Wisely designed by Horacio Bozzo and elegantly dressed with interiors by Enrico Gobbi, Piacere is our latest full custom design and the result of collaborative partnerships that have been instrumental on so many different levels’ says Federico Rossi, Chief Operating Officer of Rossinavi.
