Cruise

TDoS has over 50 years of experience bringing together interior architecture, signage, branding, and much more in creating luxury dreamscapes travelling the seas of the world. Thanks to a broad in-house design expertise, and an extensive global network of suppliers and consultants, TDoS do identify new trends years ahead, all in order to create unique brands and innovative solutions.

Yacht

The making of a yacht is an exciting challenge for our experienced design teams at TDoS. How do we interpret luxury in an ever-changing world? How do we solve the puzzle of integrating all necessary functions and extraordinary comfort in a restricted space? ”Our thorough know-how caters for new experiences regardless if you are looking for adventures exploring the world, or laid-back relax in safe ports.’ says Daniel Nerhagen, Yacht Director at TDoS. ’A yacht can be a comfy home-away-from-home, as well as where to play out and discover new experiences out on the oceans.’

Graphic & Signage

Seamless integrated signage is the key to optimizing flows on ships. Be it directions for the restaurant, announcement of yoga-classes or a trip up a river on a smaller raft, signage is of outmost importance in enabling the very best guest experience on any ship, big or small. It is that indispensable interface that guides passenger from the very moment they step out of their cabin in the morning, showing them the right direction forward by the pattern in the carpet. Always at hand, but never intruding, signage is an art form in itself.

Branding

Your brand is influenced by your values, your products and your marketing. It is shaped by your customers, everything people encounter when they interact with your company adds to their perception of you brand.

“Branding” is the effort to influence this perception. You can not control what your neighbour might say, but you can do your best to make the right impression.

Sustainability

Sustainability is an integral part in the design process, in the engineering work, as well as the entire building process at shipyards around the world. At TDoS we work with a sustainable approach when we among different parameters assess sensor controlled lights and ventilation, natural lighting, energy glazing and external shades, climate shell, high efficiency appliances as well as solar power. Along with smart tech we explore the latest innovative renewable and recycled materials for interiors, and also how they cope with functional and aesthetic requirements, all in order to enhance the passenger experience. A green approach in the cruising industry will build trust with environmentally conscious cruise customers, and bring along a bespoke luxury catering for tailored experiences with a respect for our eco-systems.

In order to show what is possible by using green technology in order to fulfill the UN 2030 Sustainable Development Goals, TDoS has created AEGIR 2.0, a concept study for a yacht with an extremely low environmental footprint. The wind-powered trimaran combines excellent hydronics with a hybrid wind-electric propulsion system that re-charges all batteries when under sail. Infinity pool at the aft, Jacuzzi in the fore, seamless indoor-to-outdoor transitions, the Aegir combines bespoke Scandinavian luxury with a truly sustainable approach. A real project is Hurtigruten’s three eco-friendly new ships. MS FRIDTJOF NANSEN, built in 2020, cuts CO2 emissions by some 20 percent thanks to improved hull structure and a world-first hybrid electric-powered cruise ship technology. Other than using LNG and LBG to run the engines, single-use-plastics is banned and food is mainly sourced locally.

Design process

In every project we structure our creative ideas through an integrated methodology that pinpoints all the steps, from initial idea to crafted manufacturing. This helps us develop the best design solutions in close collaboration with our clients and their strategic intent. The methodology is divided into three main phases: Envision, Shape and Realize. Click on the icons to learn about each phase.

We also strengthen each project with an advisory board, a team of our most experienced designers and managers, to coach and make sure we deliver cutting edge, world class design. Every time.
