Nuvolari Lenard's Interior Design section boasts a showroom, where interior architects and the owners work together selecting amongst a large variety of quality fabrics, materials, wood samples and furnishings. Clients and visitors also have the opportunity to view beautiful pieces of sculptures, paintings and pictures by well known artists, often exhibiting at the studio.
Founded in 1992 in Italy, by Dan Lenard, stylist, and Carlo Nuvolari, Naval Architect and Mechanical Engineer, the company's location, right on the outskirts of the old town of Venice, had clearly a strong and significant influence on their professional formation. Both have an important relationship with the sea and style, sharing the common passion for sailing, unmistakably reflected on their outstanding and world-wide recognised designs.
The 'Large Yacht Design' section of the Nuvolari Lenard Design company incorporates creating large yacht designs primarily for private owners. The design process begins with a preliminary study, ending in a bid package circulated to potential builders. Once the construction is underway, NL Design provide the yard with all necessary architectural design documentation and controls that spirit of the design and the style are well understood and executed. Nuvolari Lenard yachts were built by some of the most prestigious and well known shipyard in the world, including Oceanco, Palmer Johnson, Perini Navi or CRN Ferretti. In 2010 NL designed and delivered four important and iconic luxury superyachts ranging from 50 to 86 metres, including motor yacht ALFA NERO or a number of Palmer Johnson Yachts.
Collaboration between Nuvolari Lenard and Palmer Johnson has always been very important, intense and productive. In fact the shipyard has delivered numerous exceptional and talked-about yachts designed by NL: In 2007 the yard delivered two PJ 135s and three PJ150 sportsyachts, the motor yacht DRAGON, WAVERUNNER as well as the golden superyacht O'KHALILA and HOKULANI charter yacht; in 2008 the PJ123 OCEAN DRIVE, in 2009 PJ150-5 BLUE ICE. Other important projects in collaboration with Palmer Johnson that NL is involved with include PJ 171 M/Y No.2 (sistership to DB9 yacht ) as well as Project Stimulus, in addition to the 2012 launched 85m mega yacht QUATTROELLE (Project Bellissimo).
