Yacht Architect Par Excellence - Sam Sorgiovanni

What's the one thing that gets you liking one megayacht more than the other...the fact that one is faster than the other?...in this case...not really...since when we are talking bout mega-yachts...speed is not really the criteria...

It would definitely be how HOT the megayacht looks...


With modern yacht architecture moving away from the ordinary white and elegant to arrays of colors and aggressive looks...Australia-based Yacht Architect Sam Sorgiovanni has been able to create a niche for himself through his 'super super-yacht designs'!
