Light
Opened to the landscape
Large windows and roof glazing bring daylight deep into the interior.
Oakums build no. 50
Theta
A light, contemporary Oakums interior combining pale panelling, natural oak, strong architectural contrast and generous glazing.
The visual story
Light, oak and crisp architectural contrast.
Theta uses white tongue-and-groove panelling and pale surfaces to maximise daylight, framed by natural oak and slim black details. Large windows and full-height glazing keep the interior visually connected to the landscape.
The photographs move from a calm bedroom through a compact shower room to a bright saloon and galley. Vertical oak slats, patterned textiles, marble-effect surfaces and black fittings add definition without disturbing the restrained palette.
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.
Materials
Warmth against white
Natural oak softens pale panelling while black frames give the rooms clarity.
Living
Designed as a complete home
Bedroom, shower room, saloon and galley share one coherent material language.
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.
