MASTER SUITE

“When we began work on the

62 meter Maidelle it was with

a fully custom approach,” says

Rubelli’s head of design Alberto

Pezzato. “We worked with Donghia

to create bespoke furniture in

linen and silk and covered walls

and ceilings in rare materials like

parchment to complement the custom leather Venetian blinds we

created.” The bespoke treatment comes with a price tag to match but

if there’s one place you shouldn’t cut corners it’s in your suite. Rubelli’s

opulent Katagami jacquard is a good place to start. rubelli.com

Salon

“A place’s identity is defined by fabrics and
they reflect the lifestyle of a yacht’s inhabitants.
Above all else, the choice of fabrics should be
based on taste,” say Caterina and Raffaele
Fabrizio, co-directors of fine Italian interiors
brand Dedar. Perhaps nowhere is this more
important than in the social heart of a
superyacht: the main salon. Fabrics featured
here should imbue sophistication, warmth,
comfort and hospitality. Try Dedar’s bold
geometric Pachisi print for statement
furniture or the discreetly luxurious Intarsiato
for curtains and relax safe in the knowledge
that all its fabrics are REACH certified for
their low environmental impact during
manufacture. dedar.com
