Abstract

To address the lack of scientific and objective evaluation standards for the interior design of small- and medium-sized yacht cabins, this study establishes an evaluation system that integrates the Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP) with the fuzzy comprehensive evaluation method. Firstly, an evaluation index system is constructed from six dimensions: aesthetics, comfort, safety, functionality, cost, and sustainability. Subsequently, AHP is employed to determine the weights of each indicator, thereby reducing the influence of subjective judgments on the evaluation results. On this basis, the fuzzy comprehensive evaluation method is applied to conduct an empirical analysis and quantitative assessment of two yacht models, 500C and 500E. The results show that the interior design of both yachts reaches the “good” level. The study demonstrates that the combined application of AHP and the fuzzy comprehensive evaluation method effectively addresses the multi-level, multi-index, and fuzzy characteristics of yacht cabin design evaluation, providing a scientific and systematic technical approach and theoretical support for the assessment and optimization of yacht interior design.
