The Selene 78 Ocean Expedition is the latest addition to the family of modern "go-anywhere" yachts we have developed together with the shipyard. With her sturdier, more angular profile, she stands apart from the Selene Ocean Explorer series, which we also designed.

The new Ocean Expedition series highlights the shipyard's commitment to broadening its portfolio and reaching new markets, further strengthened by the recent expansion of its production facilities.

For the Stratos Dutch Build 75, Guido de Groot Design developed a dynamic interior that seamlessly combines space, light, and refinement, creating an environment that feels both powerful and inviting.

Abundant natural light floods the interior, while uninterrupted ocean views maintain a constant connection with the sea, whether seated or standing. Every element has been carefully designed to interact with its surroundings, enhancing the sense of freedom and openness on board.

Here are some additional images we created for our proposal of a Lancia Thesis Coupรฉ, commissioned by one of our clients and a passionate Lancia enthusiast. The project explored a simple question:

Based on the 3.2 V6 24V sedan, we gave the car a sportier front end with a wider grille, subtly raked the windscreen, and drew inspiration from the iconic Lancia Aurelia for the rear section. The rear window design itself takes cues from Lanciaโ€™s signature grille, creating a distinctive visual connection to the brandโ€™s rich heritage.

Although the project never progressed beyond a 3D computer model and a series of 3D-printed scale models, it remains an exciting design study. We would love to see this unique creation brought to life one day and cruising the roads in the hands of a true Lancia enthusiast.

What if Lancia had built a coupรฉ version of its 2002โ€“2008 Thesis sedan, as it had done with many of its luxury four-door models in the past? One of our clients, a passionate Lancia enthusiast, posed exactly that question and asked us to design a one-off Lancia Thesis Coupรฉ.

Born from the golden era of the Motor Torpedo Boat, the Breedendam MTB stands apart as a vessel where wartime elegance meets modern seamanship.

Stretching to 19.60 metres, the MTB Sixzero Flybridge carries unmistakable retro lines, reimagined by Guido de Groot Design with a fresh and contemporary touch, both inside and out. She is scheduled for delivery to her owner in Australia next month.
