About

Explora I

A transformative ocean travel experience radiating with Bohemian crystal designs. Explora I is where passengers discover culture, art, and adventure, glowing with onboard innovations. Preciosa created numerous fixtures to light up this fresh cruising concept. Highlights include a maritime version of our design concept Inspiral from the Signature Designs portfolio.

In the heart of the ship's atrium spreads our stunning crystal luminaire made of 400 crystal rods housed in four metal boxes, each infused with LED lights to create a mesmerising display of shimmering bubbles. Safety measures included the installation of special anti-vibration dampers to ensure maximum stability and safety.

This installation is nearly five metres long and three-and-a-half metres wide. It’s crafted from 2500 sparkling crystal components and a super mirror-polished stainless steel finish. Explora I’s Inspiral features various dynamic lighting scenes which add to the elegant atmosphere.

With Inspiral, designers can draw a swirl of crystal across a space, and we transform the inspired sweep into a light. Our Signature Design Inspiral plays a starring role in Explora I's Lower Promenade.

Other luminaries

Luminaire for international restaurant

We created and installed 80 lighting fixtures throughout the Explora I. Each one was specially designed and treated to meet all maritime lighting requirements. In the lovely Fil Rouge restaurant, guests dine beneath elegant hexagon-shaped fixtures with round ribbed glass tubes on a satin bronze base.

Luminaire for captain's table

Furthermore, the captain's dining room is embellished with a diverse array of design fixtures, including wall lights that perfectly complement the overall aesthetic.

Luminaire for steakhouse restaurant

In the Marble & Co. Grill, rich tones create a compelling space, highlighted with unique lighting. Hand-blown opal glass seemingly strung on satin bronze frames highlights the strong atmosphere.

Luminaire for promenade deck

Finally, a sparkling welcome to the Sakura restaurant. On the aft promenade deck a minimalistic fixture with an asymetrical shape and 100 clear, bubbled glass rods is a lovely highlight to the corridor.
