Refits –
good bones
Simplicity is about subtracting the obvious and adding the meaningful
Heritage yachting embodies classic monograms, gracious hospitality, and a touch of glamour, creating an intoxicating connection to history. As the saying goes in yachting, “There are yachts, and then there are Feadships.” This narrative highlights two remarkable Feadships: the stunning 32-meter De Vries, Heavenly Daze, with its canoe stern from 1972, and the charming 15-meter Van Lent, Hera, from 1956.
Classic yacht details are akin to fine art; the timeless craftsmanship of classic boat building evokes a profound sense of history and seamanship.
Guillemot, a 43-metre Vitters yacht, beautifully demonstrates how a refresh can revive an original design. With soft taupe leather headboards, new upholstery in warm earth tones, and striking artwork, we enhanced its character.
A colour is a place where our brains and universe meet.
Wally luxury invites you to kick off your shoes and unwind, all while enjoying the finest linens, exquisite porcelain, and cutting-edge audio-visual systems—all at your fingertips with a simple touch screen. Embrace the allure of this extraordinary yacht, where every detail is designed to inspire and delight.
A key element of our refits is to enrich the yacht’s story, strengthen its identity, and create a unique destination through accessories linens and tableware. Often these yachts are chartered and it is an opportunity for new guests to quickly join the spirit of yachting in a comfortable environment where attention has been given to small details.

Faena House
Craftsmanship through Time
To truly appreciate craftsmanship, one need not dwell in the past; rather, one can find joy in its legacy. For our project at Faena House in Miami, the client sought a vision of “Hardcore Art Deco.” This wasn’t merely an obsession with the style, but rather an appreciation for the finest elements of the past, blended with a forward-looking perspective—an invitation to indulge in Miami’s vibrant culture alongside the Faena Hotel and cultural centre next door.
Chrisco
One of a Kind
This project beautifully encapsulates the essence of collaboration and creativity, where the vision of the clients and the dedication of the team converge to create something remarkable. The strong chemistry among the team members fosters an environment where innovative ideas flourish, and every detail is meticulously crafted to reflect the clients’ aspirations and lifestyle.
Mediterranean Penthouse
Natural and Artificial Light
This project prominently features light as a constant element high above the city, thanks to its 360-degree windows that showcase the shifting illumination throughout the day. The apartment design was inspired by our client’s vision of a bespoke coastal entertaining space – relaxed and comfortable with just the right amount of city chic. We took inspiration from the location – hot sun, warm sea and endless sand dunes.
Legato
Colour in Life
We have recently completed a yacht for a client whose vision was to evoke feelings of summer joy and foster family bonding during the warm summer days. This family boldly embraced vibrant colours that mirrored their optimistic perspective on life. Our task was to harmonize these vivid dreams without compromising their vibrancy.
Contest Yachts
A remarkable collaboration
This is a story of a remarkable collaboration for the last 14 years. Our goal has been to blend the luxurious spirit, spaciousness, and comfort of a large superyacht with the excitement, practicality, and flexibility of a semi-custom production yacht.
Parisien Pied-a-terre
A celebration of Parisian elegance
Travel has opened up the world, bringing different cultures within reach, yet some argue that it has made experiences feel uniform. Our mission is to root each project in its unique surroundings, cultivating a sense of calm and belonging. While the practicalities of life can remain consistent, the style and interaction with the environment should resonate with local culture, history, and nature.
