If cross-continental sailing is part of your lifestyle, this navigational desk will help steer the way.
Yacht design prioritises sleek lines and space optimisation, with ergonomics and functionality playing a key role to ensure the safety of those on board when navigating rough seas. However, for luxury yachts, aesthetics is the one essential factor that elevates the investment into something truly special!
Space efficiency, luxurious materials, and a showpiece-worthy aesthetic – these are both the demands and challenges of designing functional yacht interiors. Our design scope for this navigation desk included a custom drawer set, a self-retracting swivel chair, and a seamless chair base, combining style and functionality. The desk’s flowing lines mimic the gentle, rhythmic movement of water, adding a touch of elegance to its sophisticated form.
The luxury yacht-building industry is a specialised craft where skilled yacht architects and builders cater to a select group of elite and demanding owners who value the unique journey of creating bespoke yacht masterpieces.
This bespoke navigation desk was designed and installed in a luxury yacht built in Cape Town. It not only complements the yacht’s exquisite design and craftsmanship, but also enhances navigation procedures during ocean crossings with its superior functionality.
Cape Town is globally recognised for its thriving luxury yacht-building industry. As with luxury goods, the more bespoke the yacht, the greater its desirability. This is where RKID became involved – when a discerning yacht owner sought a custom navigation desk that went beyond standard catalogue options, elevating the design to something truly unique.
