Naval Design

Safety 1st. Total Comfort. Top Performance.

We design safe, comfortable and high-performing vessels that are easy to build, have predictable costs and make you feel like home.

Naval Design

Excellence Through Detail

We never cut corners when it comes to naval design.

Our detailed process ensures a vessel that is safe, functional, and visually captivating.

Our naval designers, architects, and engineers ensure that each aspect of the design is carefully planned, coordinated, and executed to meet the owner’s requirements and deliver a safe and truly remarkable yacht.

Naval Design

Designs that conform to global maritime safety standards while maximizing speed, comfort, efficiency and functionality.

Naval Studies

We make everything easy to use, maintain and upgrade with detailed documentation, studies, plans, drawings and manuals.

Systems Design

Advanced systems design covering propulsion, swimming platforms, HVAC, electrical and electronics integration.

THE

Process

Concept Design

The conceptual design starts with the Owner’s needs and ideas in mind.

In this stage, several concepts are custom designed and presented until we make sure that the project is feasible and that all the needs and dreams are met.

As soon as there is a clear winner concept, it is time to proceed to the basic design.

Basic Design

In the Basic Design stage, we gather all the needs, the requirements and the technical data and we produce a preliminary General Arrangement for approval.

We also produce 5 single line plans for an initial cost estimate together with a preliminary market evaluation for the project.

The drawings produced during the Basic Design phase are:

  • Electrical systems plan
  • Piping plan
  • Safety plan
  • Equipment and machinery plan
  • Fire fighting plan

Detailed Design

The detailed phase in our design involves further refining and developing the design concepts into a comprehensive and detailed plan.

This phase focuses on translating the initial design into precise specifications, engineering calculations, and construction drawings.

The following are the stages involved in the detailed phase of our yacht marine design:

  • Systems Design
  • Structural Design
  • Propulsion and Engineering Systems Design
  • Interior Design and Fit-Out
  • Equipment and Component Selection
  • Detailed Construction Drawings

The 10 Steps of

Successful Naval Design

1

Hull Design

The hull design involves the shape and form of the yacht's outer structure. It includes considerations such as hydrodynamics, stability, buoyancy, and structural integrity. The hull design affects the vessel's speed, fuel efficiency, maneuverability, and seaworthiness.
2

Superstructure Design

The superstructure refers to the upper deck and enclosed spaces above the main deck. Its design includes considerations such as aesthetics, interior layout, visibility, and functionality. The superstructure design influences the overall appearance and profile of the yacht.
3

Interior Layout

The interior layout design involves planning and arranging the various spaces inside the yacht. This includes determining the placement of cabins, bathrooms, lounges, dining areas, galley, crew quarters, and other amenities. The interior layout should optimize space utilization, ensure comfort, and accommodate the needs and preferences of the owner and guests.
4

Deck Layout

The deck layout design determines the arrangement and functionality of the exterior deck spaces. It includes considerations such as outdoor seating areas, sunbathing spaces, swimming platforms, helipads, jacuzzis, and other features. The deck layout should provide convenient access, optimize outdoor living areas, and enhance the overall recreational experience.
5

Propulsion System

The propulsion system design includes selecting and integrating the appropriate engines, propellers, and fuel systems. It involves considerations such as power requirements, fuel efficiency, noise reduction, and emissions. The propulsion system design impacts the yacht's speed, range, maneuverability, and environmental performance.
6

Electrical and Mechanical Systems

The design of the yacht's electrical and mechanical systems encompasses aspects such as power generation, distribution, lighting, air conditioning, plumbing, and safety systems. The design should ensure reliable and efficient operation, ease of maintenance, and compliance with safety standards.
7

Trim and Stability

The naval design addresses stability and trim considerations to ensure the yacht remains stable, balanced, and safe during operation. This involves calculations and adjustments related to weight distribution, center of gravity, and ballasting.
8

Materials Selection

The choice of materials is crucial in yacht design. The selection of high-quality materials, such as hull materials, composite materials, interior finishes, and fittings, impacts the yacht's durability, weight, aesthetics, and maintenance requirements.
9

Safety and Regulatory Compliance

Naval design ensures that the yacht complies with international safety regulations, classification society requirements, and other relevant standards. This includes considerations such as lifesaving equipment, fire safety measures, stability criteria, and emergency systems.
10

Aesthetics and Styling

The naval design of a yacht also encompasses aesthetic considerations, including the overall exterior and interior styling. It involves collaborating with designers and stylists to create a visually appealing and harmonious design that reflects the owner's preferences and current design trends.
