F1
by Cristiano Gatto Design

Cristiano Gatto Design has unveiled the F1 Series, a trio of superyacht concepts born from an internal creative initiative rather than a client brief. Developed as a self imposed challenge, the project allowed the studio to explore new proportions, spatial connections, and stylistic ideas free from conventional constraints. This freedom enabled the team to push its signature design language further, combining dynamic automotive influences with a focus on refined onboard living.

What began as an experimental study quickly drew the interest of clients who connected with its bold yet functional philosophy. As enthusiasm grew, the designers expanded the concept into a modular family of yachts, each retaining a shared identity while accommodating different sizes and operational profiles. The resulting series blends performance, elegance, and comfort, reflecting both the studio’s aspirations and the shifting expectations of the superyacht market.

A defining hallmark of the F1 Series is its reimagined relationship with the sea. Cristiano Gatto Design has introduced an open stern architecture that dissolves the boundaries between interior spaces and the water, creating a beach club that feels fluid, expansive, and naturally connected to its surroundings. This approach places guests at the centre of the marine environment, capturing the emotional essence of yachting.

The studio also challenges tradition by relocating the dining room to the lower deck, where it overlooks two sea level platforms that fold out over the water. This bold rearrangement transforms dining into an immersive experience framed by shifting reflections and open horizons. The addition of a show kitchen further enhances social interaction, turning food preparation into an engaging performance rather than a hidden process.

These innovations succeed because they prioritise how people actually live on board. Every decision reinforces flow, connection, and a sense of shared experience. By ensuring that light, movement, and sea air permeate the yacht, the design creates spaces that feel purposeful and emotionally resonant. In the F1 Series, Cristiano Gatto Design has crafted a forward looking family of superyachts that fully embraces the marine environment while elevating the rhythms of life at sea.
