TEAM PORTRAIT #02 – INTERVIEW – Antoine Gicquel, Project Manager for Privilège catamarans at Darnet Design:
“Designing is a balancing act”
A passion for cars that leads to boats is nothing new. But to have made it his sole profession with passion for thirteen years now, that’s more remarkable. Here we meet Antoine Gicquel, originally from Caen but now living Nantes because of his love of design and a job well done.

Darnet Design creates the interior and exterior design for superyachts and production boats. From the preliminary concept to the final product, our professional team follows through the whole creative process and the construction of your yacht.
The agency, managed by Franck Darnet, is located in Nantes-France. We have a team of talented designers and interior architects who combine their technical and artistic skills with their love of the sea.
We share the same philosophy and the same professionalism: “our job is not just about creating an artistic concept. We guarantee it works in practise and we make it come true.” Our demanding approach requires careful planning and coordination, even before the artistic creation stage begins.
Drawing on 20 years of experience, Darnet Design also creates innovative, stylish land-based and underwater projects.
PHILOSOPHY
The Art of Space: We design bright and attractive interiors to live in, which provide pleasure and a sense of space. With interiors that are wide and uncluttered to optimize the visual perspective and site-lines. A few inches, a slight curve here, a recess joint there can change the perception of size.
“A la carte” styles: Our design studio fulfills our clients’ desires: some dream about a classical interior, others about a contemporary atmosphere. This range makes our job tremendously exciting and gratifying. In both cases, the conceptual approach and the attention to detail are constant.
