Leading superyacht design studio H2 Yacht Design is proud to announce that two of its projects have been selected at the prestigious World Superyacht Awards 2026, widely regarded as the pinnacle of achievement in the industry.
Held in Venice on 1–2 May 2026, the 21st edition of the awards brings together the very best in global superyacht design and construction. What sets these awards apart is their unique judging panel—composed entirely of experienced superyacht owners—ensuring a truly peer-reviewed recognition of excellence.
H2 Yacht Design is represented in two highly competitive categories. In the Displacement Motor Yachts (500–1,499 GT) category, After You, a striking Xplorer 60 built by Damen Yachting, features interior design by H2 Yacht Design. The project showcases the studio’s signature balance of refined luxury and practical, expedition-ready living.
In the larger Displacement Motor Yachts (1,500–2,499 GT) category, Al Reem, a yacht built by Bilgin Yachts with interiors by H2 Yacht Design, has also been shortlisted. The nomination highlights the studio’s ability to deliver sophisticated, large-scale interiors tailored to modern owner lifestyles.
Having two yachts recognised at the World Superyacht Awards underscores H2 Yacht Design’s position at the forefront of leading yacht design. With a portfolio spanning some of the industry’s most innovative and technically advanced vessels, the studio continues to set benchmarks in superyacht interiors on the global stage.
As the industry gathers in Venice, anticipation builds to see whether H2 Yacht Design will take home top honours—further cementing its reputation as a driving force in contemporary superyacht design.
