• Recreate the harmony and functionality of boat interiors: curved lines, light oak wood, and immaculate whites.
• Maximize natural light with clever layout choices such as glass partitions and a central skylight.
• Design an immersive reception area reminiscent of a yacht saloon, integrating digital marketing tools in a refined atmosphere.
