For over 20 years, Ci-Ta has pioneered luxury cruise ship interior design, transforming maritime spaces into breathtaking environments where functionality meets artistry. Operating strategically from Yalova, Miami, and London, we’ve redefined onboard experiences across European and Middle Eastern waters through elegant staterooms, dynamic entertainment venues, and sustainable public areas that balance aesthetic excellence with uncompromising comfort.
Luxury Cruise Ship Interior Design
Ci-Ta crafts immersive nautical environments that elevate passenger journeys through sophisticated design principles. Our approach integrates:
- Biophilic elements connecting guests with ocean vistas
- Custom material palettes reflecting regional cruise routes
- Ergonomic flow optimization for high-traffic corridors
When designing the flagship lounge for Mediterranean Voyager, we sourced Murano glass artisans to create a wave-inspired chandelier that refracts sunlight across three decks – turning afternoon tea into a multisensory experience where light dances across crystal surfaces like sunbeams on open water.
Modular Suite Layouts for Ocean Liners
We revolutionize compact spaces through adaptable configurations that maximize both luxury and practicality. Our modular systems feature:
- Convertible wall-bed solutions with premium upholstery
- Retractable privacy partitions in premium suites
- Custom storage integrations within structural bulkheads
Entertainment Space Planning at Sea
Ci-Ta engineers venues that captivate while navigating unique marine challenges. Our designs incorporate:
- Stabilized flooring systems for dance venues
- Acoustic dampening in multi-use theaters
- Sightline optimization across curved auditoriums
The transformation of the Northern Star’s observation lounge required installing cantilevered banquettes that appear to float above the ship’s wake. During sea trials, we adjusted sight angles millimeter by millimeter until every seat framed perfect horizon views – even in 5-meter swells.
Eco-Conscious Marine Interior Materials
We advance sustainable maritime design through innovative material selection:
- Recycled teak alternatives from ocean plastic
- Low-VOC marine-grade textiles
- Cork wall panels for natural insulation
- Photocatalytic coatings purifying cabin air
Bespoke Cabin Furniture and Lighting
Ci-Ta’s artisans create signature pieces tailored to marine environments:
- Anti-roll table bases with magnetic stabilization
- Wave-form LED coves reducing motion perception
- Convertible vanities with jewelry-safe storage
For our Arabian Gulf project, we embedded navigation-inspired brass inlays into cabinetry that trace historical pearl diving routes – each suite telling a unique story through illuminated pathways in the cabinetry that glow softly at night.
