Designed by South Korean industrial architect Hyun-Seok Kim, for his design Voronoi, (still in the design stage) a magnificent super yacht. This project for this 125 meter yacht is a true work of art, craftsmanship and technology and was inspired by the algorithmic diagram of Ukrainian math’s teacher Georgy Voronoy from the 18th century, hence the name and the intricate Voronoi pattern that can be found all over the exterior that compares to a fine membrane like that of an insects wing. The interior is so utterly out of this world it has to be seen to be believed, intricate design over five decks, an indoor pool with ancient Greek columns, botanical gardens, a sky lounge, small golf range. This yacht will be without a doubt a paradise on the seas when Kim gets around to building it. 

In mathematics, a Voronoi diagram is a way of dividing space into a number of regions. A set of points (called seeds, sites, or generators) is specified beforehand and for each seed there will be a corresponding region consisting of all points closer to that seed than to any other. The regions are called Voronoi cells. It is dual to the Delaunay triangulation.

"What is special about the Voronoi diagram is that we also notice it in nature," said Kim, who is riding high after winning the 2011 Millennium Yacht Design Awards for an equally eccentric concept inspired by coral reefs and tropical fish.

"If you look at the wings of a dragonfly, the cell membrane of a plant or the fur of a giraffe, for instance, you see the Voronoi pattern over and over," said Kim.

It is named after Georgy Voronoy, and is also called a Voronoi tessellation, a Voronoi decomposition, a Voronoi partition, or a Dirichlet tessellation (after Peter Gustav Lejeune Dirichlet). Voronoi diagrams can be found in a large number of fields in science and technology, even in art, and they have found numerous practical and theoretical applications

The 32 year-old designer believes that the unusual exterior would appeal to those looking for a superyacht more in harmony with its natural surroundings.
