As stated by Adam Lay Studio: “We think our approach to yacht design is unique. For the Inukshuk project we fully immersed ourselves in the owner’s design brief studying native trees, flora and fauna, rocks and boulders and the lichen that grows on them. We personally tailor our designs to suit our clients’ design brief, meaning every interior we produce is different; the common thread being Adam’s hand-drawn and hands-on approach combined with safety, practicality and quality. In the case of Inukshuk’s ottoman ‘boulders’, Adam sculpted them himself from light-weight foam and had Parkway Interiors complete them with a fibreglass skin and a speckled painted finish to look like the granite boulders from the owner’s favourite place in the world.”
