Each suite aboard Four Seasons I, the debut vessel from Four Seasons Yachts, will be equipped with a “digital nervous system” featuring a 55-inch transparent LG T-OLED television – the first freestanding installation of its kind at sea.

This advanced piece of technology is the result of a multi-year collaboration between Bang & Olufsen, LG and Four Seasons Yachts. Paired with a bespoke version of Bang & Olufsen’s Beosound Theatre, the set-up signals the start of a new era in entertainment design.

More sculpture than screen, the television resembles a Milanese lightbox, resting on a pedestal minus the usual distractions of cables, brackets, and black boxes. At rest, the TV disappears into the room. When active, it pivots on a custom-engineered motorised stand, rotating up to 110 degrees to follow your line of sight, wherever in the suite the guest may be.

“It’s smart, but never bossy,” Marc-Henry Cruise Holdings Chief Information Officer John Polimenakos said. “The system learns to anticipate you, not the other way around.”

These cutting-edge televisions are the centrepiece of the “digital nervous system” that combines sensors, software, and algorithms to fine-tune every aspect of the in-suite experience aboard Four Seasons I. Light, temperature, privacy settings, even energy usage are all programmed to respond instinctively to each guest’s presence.

“Each time you enter your suite, the space responds to you,” Polimenakos explained. “Within seconds, you feel at home.”

Four Seasons I was floated out at Fincantieri’s shipyard in Ancona, Italy, in January 2025 for the start of work on its interiors. The 95-suite vessel is slated for delivery by the end of this year, with inaugural sailings scheduled in January 2026.

It will sail itineraries in the Caribbean and Bahamas during northern hemisphere winter/spring, and then head to the Mediterranean for northern hemisphere summer.
