Terence Disdale has been reshaping what luxury means on the water since 1973, building a reputation as one of the most consequential yacht designers of his generation. His portfolio spans some of the world's largest and most technically ambitious superyachts, each a study in the marriage of masterful craftsmanship and genuine creative daring.
“One of the most sought-after designers of the past 50 years, Disdale doesn’t follow trends—he sets them. This book frames his life as a yacht designer with some of his most spectacular and challenging projects to date.” —Marilyn M. Mower
Terence Disdale: My Art of Yacht Design offers an unusually intimate look at how that creative mind works. The book draws on never-before-published photographs, tracing Disdale's approach from the bold sweep of an exterior profile through to the quiet opulence of a finished interior. Each page makes plain his instinctive command of elegance and his appetite for pushing the boundaries of what a yacht can be.
For anyone drawn to exceptional design or the finer reaches of life at sea, this book rewards close attention. The text is written by two of the most respected voices in yachting journalism, Marilyn M. Mower and Roger Lean-Vercoe, and brings the thinking and engineering brilliance behind Disdale's iconic creations into clear and compelling focus.
