'For a life without boundaries,' promise the makers of the superyacht 'Ulyssia', a planned 1,050ft (320m) vessel bigger than The Titanic that its owners say with 'transform our concept of discovery and home'.

The Ulyssia is still some four years away from its expected date of completion, but new images provide unprecedented insight into the life of luxury on board, including 132 lavish apartments said to 'meet the standards of a five-star hotel', a theatre, a library, various pools and great underwater panoramic windows.

Although it is not yet known exactly how much residency on board will cost, details have begun to emerge around the kind of lifestyle guests can expect to enjoy. Beyond the essential amenities - restaurants, a medical centre, an XXL wine cellar - residents will also be able to bring home comfort on board, customising their rooms to their liking.

Residents hoping to get away from the hustle and bustle of modern life are expected to be able to take out a 50 year lease to stay on the ship in rooms ranging from 112 to 1000sq-m. Those with lives still on land will have access to two helicopters on board to bring guests back and forth.

The mega yacht belongs to Swiss company Ulyssia Residence AG and is the brainchild of Espen Øino, a veteran Monaco-based yacht designer from Norway with a track record of drawing up swanky yachts with bespoke touches for the world's richest.
