This is a first sneak preview of the Space65′ yacht waiting for its official presentation later this year. This is the real superstar of Florence-based Italian design firm Keyframe Studio. The success of this day cruiser has been enormous. The numerous design innovations and the “timeless” styling of Space65′ have given the yacht great visibility which has culminated in the publication of the book “Space65′. YACHT DESIGN AND INNOVATION”. This book by ALINEA will be used by Universities around Europe to teach “masters” students how to design a state-of-the art yacht. Due to this success, KeyframeStudio is now styling the interiors and are planning to reveal them to the public this summer.
