Saint Lawrence, leader in the production of yachts and superyachts over 24 meters (in the photo, an advanced launching system of a 2017 model) received the Compasso d’Oro 2024, a world design award established by Gio Ponti in 1954, intended for projects that combine quality, innovation and cultural impact. The recognition was given to the Sp110 Sanlorenzo model, the first model in the Sanlorenzo open line.
The international jury, through a scientific selection process, which lasts two years and involves a permanent multidisciplinary observatory of around 150 experts, decided to award the hull the Compasso D’oro as it “interprets the idea of a floating house through new proportions , new relationship between transparent and blind surfaces, new living solutions. A boat that renews the production process in a strategic sector, through careful research into factors of construction and use sustainability” as written in the motivations.
The company highlights “the extraordinary balance of Made in Italy design, sustainability and performance” of the Sp110 which is able to offer high performance with maximum energy efficiency thanks to the use of fractional propulsion, composed of three engines. Aerodynamic shapes, large spaces on board designed to promote conviviality and privacy, the yacht has an energy recovery system that includes high-efficiency solar panels and lithium batteries, which allow the hotel functions to be powered without the use of generators.
