Bannenberg & Rowell Design

Bannenberg & Rowell carries forward the legacy of the convention-breaking studio established in the early 1960s by Jon Bannenberg, widely regarded as the pioneer of modern yacht design. Today, Dickie Bannenberg and Simon Rowell lead the creative team, maintaining the founder’s original vision while driving the studio into fresh creative territories.

The company collaborates closely with prominent builders worldwide, applying its signature aesthetic to custom superyachts and high-end residential real estate projects. Beyond hull and interior architecture, the team develops bespoke furniture and forms strategic partnerships with diverse creative designers.

Every luxury boat project is approached as a completely tailored, collaborative journey for the client. By focusing on a smooth, engaging development process, Bannenberg & Rowell continuously adds distinctive new profiles to the global luxury fleet.
