This is the Domus trimaran yacht concept and it’s breaking boundaries in the world of luxury charters.
Not only is it incredibly luxe, but it’s been designed with performance front of mind.

The yacht concept’s design reduces drag and increases speeds for a comfortable, minimal-roll cruise.
And on top of this, the designers created a beautiful, luxury passenger space.
Indeed, the yacht concept was named “Domus” by its creators, Rob Doyle Design and Van Geest Design.
A Latin word translated to mean a single-storey house built around an atrium.
The yacht concept uses the idea of openness within its innovative design to create a feeling of airiness that’s unprecedented.
The 40m yacht concept also boasts two decks split over 783-square metres.
And, nothing has been left to chance when it comes to the guest experience.
The yacht concept features four VIP guest cabins and and two owner’s suites complete with their own lounge areas.
When they aren’t relaxing in privacy, the on-board amenities include a cinema, gym and bar.
In addition, when guests want to relax, Domus’ spa and swimming pool will ensure they can unwind.
The interiors are laid out to allow guests to enjoy the scenery while maintaining a connection to life onboard.
Domus’ aim is to be the first fully zero-emission yacht weighing over 750 gross tonnes.
“The uniquely designed combination of solar power, hydro-regeneration technology and hydrogen fuel cells gives Domus unlimited range with zero emissions,” the design team told Boat International.
“An optimised system of solar power and battery storage allows the yacht to motor during daylight hours and then transfer over to the battery system at night. This also means that Domus is fully silent with zero emissions while at anchor.”

All Supercar Blondie contributors undergo editorial review and fact-checking to ensure accuracy and authority in automotive journalism. After gaining her BA Hons in French and English at the University of Nottingham, Amelia embarked on a vocational diploma from the National Council for the Training of Journalists (NCTJ). This led to numerous opportunities, from interning at Vogue to being on the small team that launched Women’s Health magazine in the UK, which was named the PPA Consumer magazine of the year for three years running. As Health, Beauty and Fitness editor, Amelia personally received a Johnson & Johnson Award and was shortlisted for both PPA and BSME titles. Since then, Amelia has created content for numerous titles and brands, including the Telegraph, 111 Skin, Waitrose, Red magazine, Stylist, and Elle, as well as being Head of Content at Vitality and Editor in Chief at INLondon magazine. “My superpower is translating technical jargon about the mechanical workings of a supercar into a relatable story you’ll want to share with your friends after you’ve read it.” After joining the SB Media family as a senior journalist in September of 2023, Amelia’s role has evolved to see her heading up the SEO output of the editorial team. From researching the most ‘Google-able’ key terms to producing evergreen content - it’s been a time of hard work, growth, and success for the editorial team and the Supercar Blondie website. “I like to think of myself as a ‘method journalist’. In other words: I live and breathe whatever I am writing about. When writing about fitness, I trained as a personal trainer, and as a beauty editor, I completed an ‘expert’ in scent diploma with the Fragrance Foundation. “During my tenure at Supercar Blondie, however, I did something I never thought possible: I passed my driving test at the age of 36. One day I’d love to train as a mechanic to better understand what happens under the hood, too. “My sweet spot is providing readers with a ‘takeaway’ (read: something new they didn’t know before) after reading every one of my stories. While I don’t claim to be an expert in the automotive world, I know the experts and bodies in the field to rely on to provide our readers with an informative and thought-provoking story every time they visit the site.”
