Interior
Soft and settled
Blue-green textiles, pale cabinetry and oak create an easy atmosphere for longer time aboard.
Oakums build no. 31
AdAstra
A contemporary commission with a strong collection of genuine build and finished interior photographs.
The visual story
A calm interior with a purposeful energy story.
AdAstra combines soft blue-green upholstery and pale painted cabinetry with natural oak, producing a relaxed, contemporary interior that feels connected to the water outside. The material palette is quiet enough to let light, proportion and the long cabin view do the work.
Exterior photographs show a substantial roof-mounted solar array integrated around the available roof space, together with a crisp blue hull and carefully executed signwriting. The images do not by themselves confirm the propulsion specification, but they do show how onboard energy equipment can be accommodated without losing the boat's visual character.
Design in detail
An individual boat, held together by one clear idea.
The photographs show how colour, light, fitted joinery and practical decisions work together. The choices belong to this commission; the same design discipline can be taken in a completely different direction for your own Oakums.
What the photographs reveal
Character with purpose.
A beautiful boat still needs to support cooking, relaxing, storage, movement and life on the water.
Roof
Space used intelligently
The solar installation occupies the available roof area while retaining a clean, ordered appearance.
Identity
Distinctive outside
The deep blue exterior and large AdAstra lettering give the boat immediate presence at the mooring.
Selected photographs
A considered record of the build.
Each page uses up to ten genuinely different photographs, selected to reveal the rooms, materials and craftsmanship without repeating the same view. Only facts confirmed by Oakums are included.
A starting point for your own brief
Take the inspiration, not the template.
Every photograph can prompt a useful conversation about proportion, materials, lighting or storage. Oakums will use those preferences to create a coherent boat around your own priorities rather than reproducing somebody else's interior.
