Ken Freivokh Design is a multi-disciplinary team renowned for creating unique “out of the box” design solutions. The innovative design team’s methodology involves a careful analysis of the client’s brief, examination of first principles, lateral thinking and formulation of very special designs, always aimed at raising the bar of excellence.
The design studio is based in the UK’s South Coast, overlooking the river Hamble, where the design team enjoy working within a busy shipyard atmosphere.
Recent launches and projects in build include the 106m DynaRIG sailing yacht ‘Black Pearl’, finishing at Oceanco, the 64m all wood classic schooner “Mikhail S Vorontsov”, the 50m cutting edge motoryacht ‘Euphoria’ for Mayra Yachts, the classic 28m yacht Metejon, brought back to its former glory in Buenos Aires, the 74m motoryacht ‘Barracuda’ in collaboration with H2 Design and a further 74m building at Turquoise in collaboration with Valicelli. Construction on the 141m all wood four masted schooner ‘Dream Symphony is also progressing at Dream Ship Victory. Following many years of work on production boats such as those from Sunseeker International, Fairline, Discovery, the Freivokh team is currently working on the flagship model of Azimut’s Magellano range, and a new range of boats for Najad in collaboration with Farr Yacht Design. KFD is closely associated with Pascoe International, and is responsible for the design of close on 200 superyacht tenders produced by Pascoe, including the latest limousine and beachlander tenders for ‘Black Pearl’.
In terms of ‘modus operandi’, the Ken Freivokh aims to work very closely with an owner to create designs which are targeted at meeting stated expectations. Having designed the unique 115ft Art Deco “Atlantide” for Tom Perkins, Ken Freivokh Design was then asked to develop the external styling and interior design for the 88m Dynarig Clipper “Maltese Falcon”. To follow on from such projects, the Freivokh Team designed and supervised Mr Perkins’s quite unique 5,000 sq ft 60th floor San Francisco penthouse.
