VBH
Dedicated to integrating luxury technology onboard superyachts for more than half a century, Van Berge Henegouwen (VBH) has built an impressive portfolio of 300+ superyachts benefitting from its expertise. Earlier this year, they launched a new concept called Design-Integration, which can benefit every new build and refit project. ‘Design-Integration’ means finding the perfect harmony between innovation, ease of use, and beauty of design. This revolutionary approach invites yacht designers and technology integrators to collaborate and create unique interior designs where technology becomes inspirational and design prevails. From now on, displays and commands can be perfectly integrated like any piece of furniture on board; they disappear when not in use, and are instantly available upon demand. Invisible Technology is the first line of products based on this groundbreaking concept and already includes three exclusive solutions: Blended screen, a screen that magically blends like a chameleon into its environment, VBH Robot arm, a TV moving smoothly and gently in a room to any position that the viewer wants, and Magic-UI, a control panel completely integrated inside materials like wood and natural stone, all available for your new build or refit projects.
