Acerca del autor
Joseph Farcus is an American architect who has become world-renowned for his work as an interior architect for cruise ships, particularly with Carnival Cruise Line. After studying architecture at the University of Florida in the 1960s, he became the youngest member of the American Institute of Architects in 1969. His first commission for the cruise industry was the project management of the modernisation of the T.S.S. Carnivale in 1975. Two years later, Farcus founded his architectural office in Miami. Since then he has designed the interior of the entire Carnival fleet, including the M.S. Carnival Destiny, the first passenger ship over 100,000 tons. In the early 1980s Farcus patented the trademark feature of all Carnival ships since the construction of the M.S. Tropicale - the red, white, and blue funnel with wing-like protrusions on both sides, designed to carry engine exhaust out and away from the ship, rather than up through the top of the smokestack like many other commercial liners. He has also worked closely with the Italian shipping line Costa Cruises on many ships, as well as with the Holland America Line, and the Cunard Line, where he worked on the interior design of the R.M.S. Queen Mary 2. His non-maritime projects include a 23-storey condominium building in Miami, and the Crystal Palace Hotel in Nassau, Bahamas.
