ARTEXPLORER - YACHT NEW BUILD
OWNER'S REPRESENTATIVE
CARRARA, ITALY 2024
The aesthetic of ArtExplorer is driven by the ambition to turn the catamaran into a fuly-fledged work of art at sea.
The project expresses a design approach conceived as a subtle balance between contemporary minimalism and traditional
nautical references. Through clean lines and the use of noble materials, Art Explorer proposes a vision of yachting in which
form, function and culture interact, transforming the vessel into a space that is at once habitable, contemplative and artistic.

AESTHETIC APPROACH
The curation of decorative and functional objects sought to balance the designer’s original vision, the owners’ preferences and an individual aesthetic perspective. Guided by the vessel’s chromatic palette and architectural codes, the selection focused on specific materials chosen for their tactile qualities, understated elegance and ability to create a harmonious dialogue with the surrounding environment.
