Sanlorenzo’s art director, Piero Lissoni, brings this ethos in design and performance to every custom-built vessel. Tapping into more than six decades of know-how at the Italian shipyard, Lissoni has forged a new path, redefining the conventions of design and artistic expression in the realm of luxury superyachts.

The art director’s vision for bespoke vessels first appeared in the SX88 motoryacht at Cannes Yachting Festival 2017. Lissoni brings an approach that facilitates new potential nautical design scenarios, putting modern and elegant spins on classic yacht design that reflects Sanlorenzo’s legacy.

The celebration of Italian artistic and cultural tenets at the shipyard extends beyond the world of yachting. Sanlorenzo Arts, soon to be headquartered in Venice inside the beautiful confines of Casa Sanlorenzo, paves the way for the brand to take on a pivotal role in arts, culture and sustainability.

Sanlorenzo Arts is a culmination of Sanlorenzo’s artistic dedication to design and an effort to take on socio-economic challenges through art. A celebration of culture, the programme offers educational events, conferences and conversations with artists.

The Italian shipyard chose Venice as the home of Casa Sanlorenzo as a sign of its commitment to sustainability. A founding member of the Fondazione Venezia Capitale Mondiale della Sostenibilità (Venice Sustainability Foundation), Sanlorenzo looks to spotlight the city in its efforts to redefine global standards for environmental sustainability.

Its efforts in sustainability are just one example of Casa Sanlorenzo’s initiatives to enrich the cultural context of Venice in an effort to boost societal change through community engagement.

The group hopes to bring forth the same dedication to refinement, timeless design and arts through its unique lens as a luxury shipbuilder to the range of community outreach, sustainability, artists in residence and arts and culture programmes that Casa Sanlorenzo, as the headquarters of Sanlorenzo Arts, will offer.

As a further display of Sanlorenzo’s artistic vision in design, the shipbuilder will unveil a custom project at Art Basel Hong Kong – as it has for several years. The brand perpetuates its presence at Design Week in Milan as well as Art Basel in Basel, Miami and Paris too, showcasing new custom projects at those esteemed arts and design events as well.

These custom projects, beyond being unique works of art, are first and foremost beacons of Sanlorenzo’s timeless craftsmanship, originality and impeccable construction.
