Our scope ranges from one-offs to serial produced vessels, from portfolio strategy to new model creation. We take a versatile approach to boat design and naval architecture, always adapting our process and creative output to our clients’ needs.

Creating user-friendly and efficient solutions requires commercial acumen, rigorous planning and understanding the complexity of problems. Our approach to boat design and naval architecture also incorporates an understanding of a brand’s core values and Design DNA into the process.

Design

Design is about turning pioneering ideas into marketable, desirable products. We start by understanding your brand and the core values it represents.

Next, we help your team turn these values into tangible customer experiences for your clients by providing creative and engineering services every step of the way from insight to concept, design and naval architecture, engineering and production support.

Engineer

We design and engineer for the ultimate performance at sea, using state-of-the-art hydrodynamics simulation tools to optimise and reach validated results.

We adapt to match your production requirements, helping your team reach the best possible performance at the yard, ensuring the resulting product meets the set targets for cost and lead-time of assembly.

Implement

We are involved and hands-on all the way from project start to finish, assisting with any testing, prototyping and validating needed to reach well-grounded results.

Our own methods and tools for quick validation of ideas include VR models and 1:1 scale models with in-house CNC milling, 3D printing for rapid prototyping, and clay modeling.

Market

Our design process is shaped to support the product’s full journey from idea to marketing & sales. Our service covers everything from branding and spatial design to CGI and immersive Virtual Reality experiences.

We are a part of Aivan, one of the biggest multi-disciplinary brand and design studios in the Nordics. Through Aivan, our full scope of services is at your project’s disposal.
