Design Unlimited, the world-renowned superyacht interior design and exterior styling studio, is excited to announce that they celebrated a huge success of two of its latest projects at last weekend’s World Superyacht Awards 2015, hosted by Amsterdam. Together, they received a total of three coveted Neptune trophies for sailing yacht WinWin, as well as motor yacht Shemara.

The 33-metre performance sailing yacht WinWin has been honoured with the prominent overall Sailing Superyacht of the Year award as well as that for the sailing yacht 30 to 50 metre category. The judges recognized her balance of performance, style and comfort. WinWin had previously received the interior design award (sailing yacht 30-40 metres) at the Showboats Design Awards 2015.
Design Unlimited created an interior ideal for both cruising and racing situations. The layout is functional and modern, and uses the space available in the most efficient way possible. The many fine features include retracting glass windows between the deck saloon and cockpit that create a single expanse of living space at the touch of a button, as well as owner’s accommodation which includes a full-beam owner’s stateroom forward linked to a study / saloon stretching aft along the port side. The décor mixes up soft tones and natural finishes to deliver a clean, elegant look.
Design Unlimited also celebrated the success of the classic 65m mega yacht Shemara, which received a special prize in the rebuild category. She was re-launched in May 2014, following a three-year refit. Mark Tucker and his team spent over 6,000 hours on the detailed redesign of both the interior and exterior styling and the full interior layout. The exterior work included detailed designs for almost all the features and equipment; ranging from the funnels and the plunge pool down to the stanchions and biminis.
“We’re delighted that these two exceptional projects received the recognition that they deserve,” said Design Unlimited’s Mark Tucker. “We were fortunate enough to work with experienced owners who had clear visions for their yachts and the will to create something that would be truly distinctive. While very different from each other, we are certain that the boats will give a great deal of pleasure for years to come.”
