Michael Schutte holds degrees in Industrial Design and Naval Architecture. After 25 years as a design professional, and over 15 years as a Naval Architect, he and the Brilliant Boats team offer a powerful combination of design flair, creative solutions based on real-world manufacturing experience, and first-class 3D design and engineering tools.

Hydrodynamics
Every Brilliant Boats hull is designed specifically for each vessel. Hull shapes are developed from the outset in 3D, and evolve with the vessel. The virtual hull is evaluated in a variety of conditions in the computers and optimized for its target weight and speed. With the yacht’s design finalized, a scale model of the hull is produced and tested in a towing tank at a variety of speeds, displacements and sea states.

Any final tweaks to further optimize can be made to the virtual hull model before a final hull design is issued for construction. Resistance and propulsion data compiled from towing tank results allow precise tuning of the mechanical package to ensure the very best performance and range.

Brilliant Boats also designs custom hydrodynamic devices such as bespoke stabilizer systems, trim tabs, and lifting foils for industrial and private customers.

Style
Brilliant Boats’ chief stylist is almost always the client. The team believe that each yacht should reflect a client’s individual requirements, ideas, and personal style. As designers and stylists, the Brilliant Boats team produce the best boat for each and every one of their clients.

Structural Engineering
Brilliant Boats has designed and built vessels in carbon fibre and Nomex, steel, aluminium, wood and FRP. They design for efficient construction in a variety of materials, depending on individual vessel requirements, budgets, and the build partner's expertise.

Interior Design
Brilliant Boats industrial design roots mean that the interior is never considered in isolation. You could say this is where we come from. Our years designing furniture and interiors, both corporate and private were not wasted.

The Superyacht experience is about a lot more than style. It’s also about intelligent flow and space planning, lines of sight, light, presentation and attention to detail after detail after detail. The complicated whole needs to be reduced to simple impressions, luxurious in their “rightness” and unspoiled by the practical necessities of running a ship.

We arranged the public spaces first. This gives us the basic geometry around which the rest is wrapped. Or more accurately threaded through, over, around, and between, as well as wrapped. The interior design of a modern yacht is as much about what you don’t see as what you do. Plumbing, electrical, fire suppression systems, HVAC, AV and sound systems, communications, security and alarm systems are all incorporated seamlessly because we give them a home from the beginning.

A typical interior package would include a set of detailed arrangement drawings, elevations (4) and a reflected ceiling plan for each space in the vessel, a detailed material specification as well as general cabinet and moulding details.

We can continue with material sourcing, and as much additional construction detail as is required by your contractor.

Cabinet Shop Drawings to Complete Interiors

Brilliant Boats can provide you with a set of shop drawings for the construction of a particular item of furniture, through to the entire interior based on the machinery and resources available to you on site.

In cooperation with previous build partners we can now offer a complete interior service; A team of dedicated yacht interior professionals in design, manufacturing and installation and Interior Project Management. We have successfully completed projects together up to 60m.
