celebrity cruises | Designer nate Berkus to introduce celebrity edge to the world

​To kick off the new year in style, Celebrity Cruises announced an exclusive partnership with design icon Nate Berkus, naming him Design Ambassador for the brand’s newest class of ships – Edge Class.

As Design Ambassador, Berkus will bring his distinctive personality to the launch of Celebrity Edge, hosting a series of Edge Class reveal events alongside Celebrity’s President and Chief Executive Officer Lisa Lutoff-Perlo and Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Royal Caribbean Cruises Ltd Richard D Fain. Designed, and soon to be revealed to the world in 3D, Edge Class will transform the future of cruising. Together, Berkus and Celebrity will share this groundbreaking story in March 2017.
​
A pioneer in the industry, Berkus established his award-winning interior design firm at the age of 24, showcasing an approachable and elevated design philosophy which has transformed countless interiors around the world for more than 20 years. Over and above the interiors he designs, Berkus’ signature style has been carried through to his highly popular product lines. As such, Berkus was a perfect fit to showcase Celebrity’s cutting-edge innovation and breathtaking design on its newest class of ships.

​"Nate Berkus embodies modern luxury and evokes a global aesthetic with his forward-thinking style, which is admired by the design world and the world at large. When we first sat down with Nate, we knew this was going to be an incredible partnership. Design is in our DNA, as well as Nate’s, plus we share a love for the same things: modern luxury, one-of-a-kind design, and global travel. We couldn’t think of a better person to collaborate with on the truly transformational Edge Class.” 
-Lisa Lutoff-Perlo, President and Chief Executive Officer, Celebrity Cruises.

​“When Celebrity approached me about a potential partnership, I couldn’t wait to get onboard – pun intended. Their commitment to delivering the very best in terms of luxury design, but also their attention to the overall experience, the level of detail and care, really stood out for me. I love the idea that we can travel beautifully and that every moment of the experience – from start to finish – is exceptional. That’s what the Edge Class is all about.” 
-Nate Berkus

Edge Class is Celebrity’s first new ship class in nearly a decade, succeeding the brand’s revolutionary Solstice Class. The company expects delivery of Celebrity Edge in Fall 2018. Celebrity Beyond is scheduled for delivery in Spring 2020 and the third and fourth Edge Class ships in Fall 2021 and Fall 2022, respectively.

Celebrity Cruises will continue revealing details throughout 2017 and 2018, inviting guests along the pioneering journey and offering glances of what is to come in the future of cruising.
