A retro-futuristic cruise experience inspired by eras of 1960s-1970s design due to its angular architectural style, push for social interaction and creating a feeling of liveliness. Serenity of the Seas creates a relaxed yet lively atmosphere for adults looking to unwind, socialize, and enjoy the feeling of vacation from the moment they step aboard. The project scope was 992' long, a 16o' beam (wide), and a 58' ceiling height. The focus was on how light enters the space, how the space interacts with the guests, and circulation in / through the inserted elevated deck. The elevated deck represents a conversation pit used in homes during the time in which this design was inspired by. Because conversation pits usually dip down into the ground, my approach was to invert the idea and created this social spine piece. Fun fact - every angle in this project is a true angle 30 degrees, 45 degrees, 60 degrees, and so forth.
