A personal vision. An explorer’s spirit.


How do you give an explorer yacht a softer, more personal expression, and still preserve her sense of purpose?

That question shaped the ER 46. Originally commissioned by a lady client, the project invited us to explore flowing curves and elegant proportions within the confident presence of a 46.6-metre explorer.

Her vision gave us a starting point. Our task was to give it a distinctive silhouette.

A silhouette shaped by balance

Five deck levels presented a clear design challenge: how to bring generous volume into a profile that feels balanced and composed. Long ribbons of dark glazing, extended deck lines and sweeping transitions between hull and superstructure draw the eye along the yacht.

Room for different rhythms

A quiet morning above the water. Lunch in the shade. An afternoon spent close to the sea. The proposed arrangement gives each of these moments a place, from the private Owner’s Deck to the beach club below.

The same language, carried inside

The exterior’s flowing lines continue through softly sculpted furniture, pale timber and tactile fabrics. Warm pearl tones, muted sage and delicate rose accents create an atmosphere envisioned for quiet mornings and evenings shared with friends.
