Celebrity Eclipse 
Description
For passengers, a cruise ship is an escape: an indulgent diversion from daily stress and routine. For those creating the experience, it is a demanding task to ensure the elements of the ship’s interior match the ship’s overall aesthetics from aft to bow.

Cruise ship elevators are in demand 24/7. They
have peak usage with thousands of guests and
their luggage embarking and disembarking in
short period bursts. They must operate smoothly at
high speeds in turbulent seas. And their materials
and structure must be easy to maintain – as the
ships are essentially always at sea.

Stage for drama and luxury

The Celebrity Eclipse, launched in 2010, is the third
in a series of Solstice class ships in Royal Caribbean’s
Celebrity Cruise fleet. The Solstice class boasts
magnificent architecture and design combined with
advanced technology.

Scott Butler of Wilson Butler Architects designed
the eight panoramic elevators to naturally serve the
main vertical people flow function of the ship. He also
designed the elevators to serve as miniature stages from
which guests can see and be seen.

Testimonial iconThe most rewarding measure of teamwork is when a manufacturer understands a designer’s comments and goes the extra distance. KONE substantially improved the original mock-up prior to our second inspection, notes Scott Butler from Wilson Butler Architects.
