NYC-based Okeanos Aquascaping, is an international custom aquarium and pond company specializing in the integration of cutting edge designs, hand-picked exotic fish, coral and other livestock, brilliant colors, and mesmerizing effects.
Sure, you could go to a beach or an aquarium anytime to see exotic aquatic life. But you guys deserve the finest luxuries in life, right ? So why not take a trip or build a customized aquarium in your home?
Okeanos is now offering five-star experiential vacations where customers can travel with Okeanos’ staff around the world to see exotic fish, coral and other livestock in its natural habitats.
The client will have the opportunity to pick out the fish, coral and livestock that he/she wishes, and Okeanos will replicate the environment in the customer’s location of choice.
That sounds very “luxury” though… but a bit selfish too (bad joke…time to sleep). Although fish must not really suffer in such big aquariums, I just hope I’m not actually doing publicity for a company which help people who plan to bring back some endangered species home! And unfortunately at $100,000 each, I guess we cannot find this kind of fish everywhere…
Though, if customers get bored with their luxury fish, they can still turn them into the world’s most expensive sushis, we will be glad to feature them once again on Luxuo ^_^

For the yacht owner who want all the luxuries onboard, you can now add the gimballed champagne holder to your accessories, so as not to spill a drop of Champagne anymore!
The extraordinary hand-manufactured piece “was designed for Dutch company Bottler BV by a famous Dutch interior yacht designer, who was inspired by Gerolamo Cardano, the Italian physician, philosopher and mathematician. In 1537 he developed his ‘cardanic suspension’ (gimbals), in order to hold the compass stably against the ships movements.” It is designed with three concentric rings hold the bottle perpendicularly no matter the motion of the boat.
This extraordinary tribute to hedonism is made with watch-making precision and available in three different metals (brass, nickel and gold-plated) to match the interior of any yacht
Prices start from €5.500 (Bottler “J-Class limited edition” is priced €10.000)
