30 CFI CURATED Cubik3 designs interiors for Phoenix Reisen’s Alisa Phoenix Reisen’s newest cruise ship Alisa set sail for the first time in March 2023 with interiors designed by Cubik3. Alisa is the fifth in a series of ships, all of which feature unique interior design concepts created by Cubik3 that are themed around the geographical areas the vessels sail in. For example, Alisa has boutique hotel-style interiors that reflect places along the Rhine. “The result is a multifaceted design concept with a great deal of detail that strikes a balance between contemporary and classic elements, making the ship appealing to both younger and older guests,” said Jochen Hagen, Cubik3’s co-owner and interior architect. Cubik3 also designed Alisa’s passenger cabins, which have a relatively small footprint but are functional, comfortable and feel spacious. “We’ve optimised the design of the cabins over the series of ships and other shipping companies are now interested in working with us,” said Hagen. “We’re now working with Rijfers Nautical Management and the Vahali shipyard to develop a new and significantly larger ship named Amina.” Photo: Alexander Rudolph P&O begins multimillion-pound refit on Arcadia and Aurora P&O Cruises has updated the guest areas on its ships Arcadia and Aurora as part of a wider modernisation project. During the refurbishment, the brand replaced balcony furniture, chairs in the passenger cabins and furniture in the ship’s open deck areas. The Neptune Pool area on Arcadia was also fitted with new lounge chairs, sofas, tables and armchairs. “Arcadia and Aurora are two of our most beloved ships in the fleet offering guests a more intimate experience in stylish surroundings,” said Paul Ludlow, president of P&O Cruises. “After a busy season hosting guests on longer duration itineraries and world cruises, we are making sure that both ships look their absolute finest ahead of the summer season.” Arcadia and Aurora will undergo more extensive refits in November 2024 and April 2025, respectively.
