2023 International Multihull Boat Show ! (La Grande Motte – France)

Darnet Design will be present at the International Multihull Boat Show. Our agency is more than ever faithful to this unique boat show, which has quickly become the world reference for professionals and multihull enthusiasts. The diversity of the catamarans and trimarans exhibited, more than 50 yachts on display,  is in some way a reflection of our own creations.

We are delighted to collaborate for many years with some of the most prominent shipyards in the sector such as Privilège Marine, JFA Yachts, Garcia Yachts or Outremer Yachting. We are thrilled that you will be able to discover the world premiere of the brand new Outremer 52. This new opus celebrates twenty years of fruitful collaboration with the Grand Large Yachting group, and continues the line initiated by the Outremer 55, which was elected European Yacht of the Year upon its release. And we have succeeded in finding new ways to set even higher standards in terms of elegance, visibility, ergonomics, luminosity and comfort, without losing any of the brand’s inseparable performance DNA.

See you April 12-16, 2023 at La Grande Motte, where we will be happy to discuss many other projects to come as well.

Unvealing of the AirYacht concept !

After several months of study, we are delighted to unveil this new innovative concept. The AirYacht is a luxurious and ultra-lightweight 52-metre superyacht residence which is attached under a 200-metre helium-filled airship.

Thanks to the combination of the two, the AirYacht becomes a versatile vehicle able to both fly and cruise the world.

The so-called residence, which is the equivalent of a 60 Metres superyacht offers 750 sq meters of living space. The three-story offers accommodation for up to 12 guests in five or six cabins, as well as for a crew of 15. It includes a gym, a sauna and a swimming pool.

The residence can be landed in its entirety or can deploy an elevator to allow guests to disembark.

With this project, we physically add a new dimension to our dream: The 3rd dimension – the height.  You can now not only cruise the coast but you can also go everywhere inland: deserts, mountains, lakes… everywhere.

With AirYacht, we have pushed the limits of the impossible as Jules Verne or Leonard de Vinci did a few centuries ago.

Top Design for the new Privilège 650 Signature !

The Privilège 650 Signature is officially the new flagship of Hanse Yachts’ luxury catamaran range. In collaboration with Marc Lombard for the naval architecture, Darnet Design has infused “a top design”, offering an “exceptional level of comfort”. Outside, new living spaces have been created, such as the teak sun lounge in front of the forward saloon windows. The flybridge impresses with its large saloon and aesthetically helm stations. The cockpit extends seamlessly from the skirts to the saloon, creating multiple spaces. The flat, aerodynamic design of the coachroof and elegant panoramic windows flood the saloon with light, offering panoramic views from inside. The owner’s suite with its central cabin, exclusive to Privilège, takes on a new dimension, with its large forward-facing panoramic window above the king-size bed.

The OUTREMER 55 has been voted European Yacht of the Year 2022!

Darnet Design is delighted to announce that the OUTREMER 55 has been voted European Yacht of the Year 2022, in the “Bluewater Cruisers” category. Awarded by twelve of Europe’s leading yachting magazines, including Yacht Magazine in Germany, Yachting World in the UK, and Voiles et Voiliers in France, this is the most coveted title in the yachting industry. We are therefore particularly pleased and proud to have created the interior styling for this truly incredible catamaran. Another magnificent achievement for our work with Outremer Catamarans, in cooperation with the architects of VPLP design and Patrick Le Quément.

The 64M superyacht Atomic is on the cover of BOAT INTERNATIONAL.

Boat International is the No. 1 magazine for luxury yachting. It is the global authority in superyachting, celebrating the yachts and the life that comes with them.

This is a real recognition for the Darnet Design agency and for the work carried out thanks to the trust of the owner, of Jean-Claude Carme at TWW Yachts, and implemented by the Italian shipyard VSY.

Refined lines and minimalist curves characterise the furniture of a warm, comfortable and timeless interior. An elegant design, expressed in simplicity and sobriety, which highlights the marine theme chosen for the interior decoration. The lighting has also been exceptionally well designed, creating a specific and engaging atmosphere for each space.

The new 64-metre Atomic is bold outside and beautifully textural within. (…) Darnet and his team know how to produce refined and elegant work without going over the top.

Great success for the presentation of the 86m STARLIGHT at the Monaco Yacht Show 2019.

Franck Darnet and Jean-Claude Carme of TWW Yachts Brokers unveiled the innovative features of this amazing project during a press conference held at the brokers’ office in Monaco.

STARLIGHT is characterized by an elegant and timeless design showing tight and modern lines with all the onboard comfort and technologies for long range sailing under every sea condition.

The international press people attending the conference were particularly impressed, among others, by the versatility of the atrium featuring a unique in-house designed moving platform, never seen on a yacht before, and by one of the most spacious beach clubs on the market of over 100 square metres.

The Lynx YXT 24 Evolution nominated!

The prestigious Boat International magazine has just nominated the Lynx YXT 24 Evolution for the 2019 Design and Innovation Awards! Beyond the outcome of the competition, which will be revealed in the sumptuous setting of Cortina d’Ampezzo in Italy at the Superyacht Design Symposium in January, this nomination is already a great recognition. It is a credit to the visionary owners, the exceptional build quality by Lynx Yachts and the talented team of designers, of which Darnet Design is particularly proud to be a part.

Indeed, we had the pleasure and the honour of drawing the interior of the YXT 24 Evolution. YXT stands for Yacht eXtended Tender, and refers to what is also called a Shadow Vessel, responsible for carrying everything that would clutter up the master ship. But here the functions have been extended to accommodating additional guests, and the possibility of arranging the outdoor platform for receptions, or as a private beach.

An original work, in which the Darnet Design team has been able to bring all its know-how in the optimal use, both at sea and at anchor, of available spaces and their development.  This, to the greatest satisfaction of the yard at Nijkerk in the Netherlands.

Having in common this genuine passion for superyachts, our collaboration meets the expectations of the most experienced owners, by sincere and constructive exchanges and an extreme level of care brought to every detail, creating a design where the elegance is only equalled by functionality.

Legitimately proud of their achievements, but resolutely farsighted, Lynx Yachts is always inviting clients to “Admire the past, and look to the future”. A future that is very close for the happy owners of the brand new YXT2.  We congratulate them on this beautiful acquisition and of course for this nomination. We wish them the best trips.
