The collaboration

LPA’s first collaboration with the shipyard dates back to 2004 on the FB229 M/Y Sai Ram, a bespoke Benetti built to revolutionize the standards of the time and designed with a visionary interior design approach. More recently, Lazzarini and Pickering delivered the interiors of the Motopanfilo 37M, soon followed by those of the steel Motopanfilo 45M, which was announced at the Monaco boat show.

YACHT PROJECTS

The Motopanfilo 37M

The interior concept of the Motopanfilo 37M revisits the elegance of classical Benettis by reinterpreting original elements, such as bulwarks, to give the space a visual rhythm and define the different areas. Large lateral windows and curved ceilings achieve openness and brightness, while the tradition of wood evolves from mahogany into a warm, light oak color on both floors and ceilings. Additional nods to the sea are expressed by white and steel-blue wood and fabrics.

The Motopanfilo 45M

Through the extraordinary Veranda Deck®, the Motopanfilo 45M accentuates the appeal of a spontaneous and contemporary lifestyle at sea, privileging informal luxury. Inside, materials typically used outdoors, such as wicker and rattan, hint at new aesthetic traditions. Loose and functional furniture invites guests to adapt the environment to their needs, embracing the occasions of a versatile living style.

M/Y Sai Ram, reflections of the Orient

Upon entering, the FB229 M/Y Sai Ram reveals a unique sense of space and fluidity accentuated by Orient-inspired atmospheres in red, black, and white. Mobile panels and glazed, transparent surfaces extend the visual perspective, giving the impression of an expanded ambience. Refined and natural materials, such as wood, leather, silk, and linen, are further enhanced by the play of mirrors and crystals.
