Rigby & Rigby is working collaboratively alongside Lawson Robb to design a 26.2 metre superyacht for a private client. Rigby & Rigby’s existing relationship with the client and knowledge of their personal tastes complements Lawson Robb’s yacht design team.

The Extra 86’ ISA yacht was selected and commissioned due to its general arrangement and its flow of indoor and outdoor spaces. The client desired a yacht that had a “penthouse feel” with increased crew, guest integration and a contemporary design throughout. The yacht can accommodate eight guests in four cabins, including a full-beam master suite, one large VIP cabin and two twin guest cabins, all with en-suites.

A contemporary paired back design.

The interior design has been adapted including amendments to the cabinetry and the creation of a feature area in the main saloon where the owner plans to display a favourite piece of art. The contemporary but paired back interior revolved around a colour scheme of blues and greys resulting in a serene and calm environment.
