design the Yachts of
the Future ?

20. Collaboration. The ‘lone creative genius’ is being replaced with
interdisciplinary collaborators.
Empathy. A ‘people first’ approach creates inherently desirable
solutions knowledge of yachting becomes paramount
Experimentalism. Designers need to ask questions and overcome
constraints.
Integrative thinking. Designers need analytical skills to create
solutions that go beyond simple use and improve existing designs.
Optimism. Potential solutions are better than existing ones.
