What We Design
We shape the lines, profile and silhouette of your yacht, balancing bold, original styling with real seaworthiness. From the first hand-drawn sketches to a refined 3D hull, every proportion is developed with you until the exterior is unmistakably yours.
We design interiors that feel like home on the water — layouts, materials, lighting and bespoke furnishings tailored to how you live aboard. Each cabin, salon and deck is composed for comfort, flow and atmosphere, then refined down to the finest detail.
For each yacht’s type and purpose, we bring in the best-matched naval architects from our trusted network — hull form, hydrostatics, stability and structure — so your design becomes a buildable, seaworthy vessel.
We select the best partner engineers for the type and purpose of your yacht — technical systems and detailed engineering that turn the concept into a yacht ready for construction.
We bring the design to life with photorealistic renders — lighting, reflections and true materials — so you can see exactly how your yacht will look on the water long before it is built, and present the vision to owners and yards.
We lead the creative exterior and interior design, and for each yacht’s type and purpose we bring in the best naval architects and engineers to realise it — one clear design vision, delivered end to end.
Frequently Asked Questions
What types of yachts does DRAFTXL design?
We design custom motor yachts, sailing yachts, catamarans and superyachts — covering everything from the first concept and exterior styling to interior design, naval architecture and 3D visualisation.
Do you work with clients worldwide?
Yes. We work with private owners and shipyards across Europe, the Americas, the Middle East and beyond, collaborating both remotely and on-site as each project requires.
Can you design only the interior or only the exterior?
Absolutely. You can commission a full concept-to-build project, or a single service such as exterior styling, interior design, naval architecture or 3D visualisation.
How does the yacht design process work?
We lead the creative side — exterior and interior design — from first sketch to 3D visualisation. For naval architecture and engineering we select the best partner firms matched to your yacht’s type and purpose, and coordinate them so your design is realised as one seamless vision.
