Vitruvius Yacht Design

Vitruvius Yachts represents the motor yacht division of naval architect and designer Philippe Briand. Based on Briand’s extensive background in performance sailing, the company focuses on creating visionary yachts that prioritize technical precision and innovative design trends. With offices in London and La Rochelle, the team works closely with international clients to translate complex concepts into functional, high-end motor yachts.

The design philosophy at Vitruvius Yachts emphasizes sustainable and intelligent solutions, specifically integrating efficient, long-range green technologies. This approach has attracted a diverse group of owners, ranging from experienced yachtsmen seeking bespoke engineering to a new generation focused on environmental impact.

Philippe Briand has received 34 international design awards and has seen over 12,000 boats built to his designs throughout a prolific career. This technical pedigree allows Vitruvius Yachts to bridge the gap between artistic flair and naval architecture. The company maintains its high standards by collaborating exclusively with premier shipyards, including Feadship, Lürssen, Rossinavi, and Sanlorenzo, to execute these complex builds.

While the Philippe Briand Ltd studio continues to lead in the development of elegant sailing yachts, Vitruvius Yachts provides a dedicated platform for motor yacht innovation.
