Designed by Dutch studio Van Geest Design, Pebble was inspired by the smooth surfaces and symmetrical shapes of two stones picked up by studio cofounder Pieter Van Geest. The first the designer found on a beach on the United Kingdom’s south coast; the second appeared a few years later in a riverbed in Indonesia.

“It was an exploration into designing with organic curves—an escape from the sharp angles and cubist shapes we encounter in our everyday lives,” Van Geest told. “The idea of designing a yacht as though it had been sculpted by nature over decades and then fits seamlessly into its ocean environment appealed to me. It’s totally at odds with what people have come to expect in yacht design.”

The tiers are similar to many gigayachts, but note the elliptical shapes of each deck, rather than hard rectangles found on many yachts. Even the pool on the bottom deck avoids sharp corners. “Everything is kept neat and tidy. There are no visible swim ladders, so the smooth pebble exterior remains uninterrupted,” says Van Geest. “It’s becoming more of a trend to achieve enjoyment on deck without being visible.
