Lauded for his signature manipulation of shape and structure, Luiz DeBasto’s studio is one of the most well-respected names in superyacht design.
Counting among his repertoire projects commissioned by the likes of Burger Boat, Turquoise Yachts, Oceanco, Tankoa and Mondomarine (to name just a few!), DeBasto has worked with shipyards in all corners of the globe ranging from smaller production boats through to full custom megayachts.
