Design Spiral
Yacht design is not a linear path but an evolving, iterative journey. It is an interactive process of exploration, refinement, and reassessment where each step builds upon the last. The designer begins with a series of informed assumptions and tests them against the requirements of performance, function, and aesthetics.
Rarely does the first attempt yield perfection. Instead, adjustments are made, alternatives explored, and solutions re-evaluated. This continuous cycle, often described as the design spiral, moves through every stage of the design process from concept to detailing before looping back to be reassessed with fresh precision.
With each turn of the spiral, the design comes closer to balance: a synthesis of vision, engineering, and experience. Eventually, after several refinements, the spiral converges on the final outcome a yacht that fulfills the client’s aspirations and meets the highest standards of naval architecture and design.
At PIER 21 Atelier, we embrace this design spiral as both method and philosophy, ensuring every yacht we create is the product of rigor, creativity, and uncompromising attention to detail.
