Interior Yacht Design
CYD designs the interiors of our yachts. CYD designers closely cooperate with our clients, to create the best possible interior layout. The solutions we propose are a clear statement of our Mediterranean culture Sunny interiors, light colours, and Renaissance-like use of materials. We have established close relations with high end Italian furniture materials suppliers, leading worldfamous firms. We always start from hand sketches and rendering, to then move on to detailed 3D drawings and computer renderings. Deep commitment plays a pivotal role in the development of ideas and design to ensure that the final result is an expression of our job and the client’s ideas.


Exterior yacht design
We design the exterior style for our yachts.
Our design have clean lines and are durable in the time.
We created the double eyes in the houses of Carnevali’ s yachts, and now we did the innovation of the shoreline of The Fifty for Eleva Yachts or like the sheerline of NEO and the Senses style.
When we design for an established yard like Grand Soleil we gave to them innovation but with the respects of their style and traditions.


CFD consultant
Giovanni Ceccarelli started to use CFD in early 2000 for the Mascalzone Latino Team’s participation in America’s Cup , the results was validated also with tank tests.
I persevered in this field until 2007, when I repeated the experience for the +39 Challenge Team to optimise the shape of hulls and appendages.
During my work for America’s Cup when I carried out extensive research and design of hull shapes and appendages, I perfected my operating method to use CFD for pleasure crafts, and particularly to design naval architecture of hull shapes of low resistance.
Today CFD is an important tool that provides the designer with extensive information about the design in terms of final performance.
CYD uses CFD for all important research projects both sail and power.
CFD ensures high precision for power boats to define the proper horsepower necessary for the vessel to meet the demanded speed requirements.


Now CYD uses CFD for all the projects.
At CYD we could work also as a consultant for other yards or private commitments that have their own design, for consulting, optimization of original design or only validation of them, to find the curve of resistance. With CFD we could be very precise in power boat to define the proper horse power requested for the vessel for the design speed request. We could give out not only the results but also how to improve the design.


FEM calculations
For structural design at CYD we do reaserch and design using also FEM software calculations. We work to optimize and validate Composite, Alluminium and Stell structures.
