The interior and exterior design of this unique yacht was created by French architect Joseph Dirand and he commented that he wanted to bring “a large amount of outdoor space to be immersive with the surrounding landscape” and continued, “this is exactly what I see when I look at it today – the black hull is really spectacular and looks completely monolithic.”
