About H2 Yacht Design
No signature style. Just yours.
Award-winning interior and exterior design for the world’s most exceptional superyachts.
The Studio
H2 Yacht Design is a multiple award-winning, internationally recognised superyacht interior and exterior design studio, founded in London by CEO and Creative Director Jonny Horsfield. In 2025, the studio expanded its presence in the Mediterranean with a second studio in Nice, France, led by Design Director Gianluca Sist.
Foundations in Refit
Built on a strong foundation of complex superyacht refit design, H2 offers deep expertise in navigating diverse styles, managing complex projects, and demanding timelines. That rigorous background laid the groundwork for H2’s reputation as one of the world’s leading yacht design studios delivering both custom new builds and transformative refits.
Custom New Builds
H2 is regularly commissioned to design custom new build superyachts, maintaining long-standing relationships with many of the world’s leading shipyards. Landmark projects including GO, Al Lusail, Arrow, and Angelique have cemented H2’s reputation as one of the foremost design studios across the global superyacht industry, with particular authority in the Turkish sector.
Explorer & Expedition Vessels
Alongside its luxury motor yacht portfolio, H2 Yacht Design is recognised as one of the world’s leading studios for explorer yacht and expedition vessel design. The studio has created pioneering explorer interiors for Andromeda (formerly Ulysses), the innovative Damen SeaXplorer series, and the groundbreaking 194.5-metre REV Ocean—the world’s largest and most technologically advanced research and expedition vessel, capable of exploring the most remote regions of the planet without compromising on luxury, functionality or livability.
Complete Custom Service
H2 Yacht Design provides a complete custom yacht design service, offering superyacht interior design, exterior yacht design, and design management for both new build yachts and major refit projects. From bespoke 30-metre motor yachts to some of the largest and most advanced explorer vessels ever conceived, every project is uniquely tailored to its owner. Rather than following a signature house style, H2 creates timeless yachts that reflect each client’s individual vision, lifestyle, and ambitions.
“H2 pride ourselves in not having a 'house style'”
Jonny Horsfield
Founder & Creative Director
"Our portfolio is wonderfully diverse, enabling us to work in any style the client prefers"
We are a design company here to serve our customers and, as such, H2 pride ourselves in not having a 'house style' that is replicated for each client. Instead our portfolio is wonderfully diverse, enabling us to work in any style the client prefers. This is both stimulating for us as designers and comforting for our customers.
Every project begins with a blank canvas and a conversation - understanding each owner's vision, lifestyle and aspirations before a single line is drawn. By combining timeless elegance with cutting-edge technology, we ensure that every H2 yacht is not only beautiful but also functional, efficient and built to the highest standards of craftsmanship.
From Concept to Completion
Four disciplines and a refined process — explore how we approach interior, exterior, refit and residential work.
Our ServicesLondon & Nice
A Multi-Disciplinary Studio
Behind every project sits a tight, collaborative team: exterior stylists, interior architects, 3D visualizers and FF&E designers, working side by side to turn visionary briefs into delivered yachts and residences.
Each discipline pushes the others. The result is design with the technical conviction to be built — and the imagination to be remembered.
