Today known as Queen Anne, the new ship is the 249th vessel built for Cunard, and was ordered from the Fincantieri Marghera Shipyard, Italy. The ship’s design is based on the Pinnacle-class utilised by Holland America Line. The selection of the 113,000 gross ton Pinnacle-class platform makes the new ship larger than the Vista-class Queen Victoria and Queen Elizabeth. Although smaller than the 149,500 gross ton flagship Queen Mary 2, the new vessel will have a higher passenger capacity. Cunard announced the design team for the public rooms aboard the then-unnamed ship in 2019. Led by Simon Rawlings (David Collins Studio), Richmond International and Sybille de Margerie (Sybille de Margerie Paris), the design team were tasked with reimagining the Cunard experience for the modern traveller.
