ON-BOARD STYLE The excellence of Made in Italy expertise and style is a highly significant element in the way yachtbuilding companies operate. This includes Foresti & Suardi, a northern Italian brand active since 1961 and now with the third generation at the helm. In recognition of a series of yachts constructed using high-quality materials but also retaining traditional construction techniques, in 2019 the company was awarded the prestigious “100% Made in Italy� certification by the Italian Producers Institute. As well as offering nautical accessories and bathroom complements, Foresti & Suardi creates lighting units, including the Piacentini lamp dedicated to an architect working in the rationalist style - Marcello Piacentini. The lamp is designed as a piece of domestic architecture with a dialogue between solid, select materials like marble and brass and its imposing shapes, which develop geometries created for a light-filled, embracing interior.
