It brings a unique type of sophistication to furniture. With this design trend, you will elevate your yacht interior and exterior.

There’s a growing concern of marine health and ocean conservation and there are new initiatives to produce plastic-free charters, developed by engineers and designers with better technologies in order to reduce the environmental impact of creating new luxury boats.

So this trend will also rely on promoting the best and newest technological features the market has. Technology will be included in subtle ways, such as BlueTooth localization or a 4K laser projector integrated into the bespoke furniture. This trend will get along with the most advanced yacht software and technology on board, designed to maximize the best experience of the yacht life.

Popular in the ’60s, curved soft furnishings have now influenced tabletops and even suspension lamps, but their return to sofas and seating makes it one of the most intriguing and even coveted interior design trends. The continued softening of interiors with curvy shapes and organic, rounded edges is another way of embracing the relaxed feel. A playful curves decor needs to have just a few rounded shapes, in order to better complement the straight lines and square corners that every yacht has.
5. Leathers

A returning trend, but with more leather accents in unused places, creating a mix between feminine and masculine. Beyond sofas and chairs, leathers add a sense of high-quality and luxury to an interior. It’s a durable material for yachts since leather holds up against sun exposure. This trend can be spotted in small accent accessories or furniture without having the impression there’s an overload of leather material in one space.
6. Transparency – Glass in yacht architecture and design
