The reason why

“I believe yachts are artificial islands that need to be infused with nature, in order to reconnect and be regenerated by nature, for our own wellbeing.

This is why I have created the SYMBIOSIS yacht.”

Design by nature

Kurt is a firm believer in nature being the source of great design but also an ideal way of providing tranquility and inner calmness for ourselves. That is why he decided to design a yacht that surrounds one with as many natural materials and greenery as possible.
