Luca Dini, Florentine designer and architect, discovered his passion for yachts in 1983 after seeing the iconic Nabila. Starting from scratch—selling his car to buy drawing tools and working from his childhood bedroom—he built a career that now includes over 110 custom yacht designs, such as Sophie Blue, Sea Force One, Tribu, and Rose.

His philosophy is to listen to clients and create unique, emotionally engaging projects rather than following a fixed style. Today, he leads a team of over 60 people and combines yacht design with architecture, working on projects like Sindalah Island in Saudi Arabia, the Dubai Water Canal Marina, and developments in Albania.

Despite international success, his studio maintains a handcrafted approach, with sketches still drawn by hand, and work environments designed to be warm and inspiring—reflecting the beauty and uniqueness of his projects both at sea and on land.
