Andrea Vallicelli: a History of Designs
The luxurious, lightning-fast yachts of Andrea Vallicelli, the unparalleled master of boat design For 40 years, Andrea Vallicelli and his studio have conceived some of the most daring yacht designs in the history of the craft. His creations have been so influential that a history of Vallicelli is a history of the boating world in that same 40-year span. This substantial tome boasts more than 300 photographs and drawings that showcase the work of the designer for the storied Azzurra team. Here, Vallicelli shows us not only the boats of his studio, and how they were conceived and made, but in general demonstrates how yacht design has always been based on a constant intermingling between innovation and intuition of the past and how, precisely for this reason, it remains one of design's greatest expressions.

Planning Inclusive Yachts
This book proposes a novel approach to the design of accessible and inclusive sailing yachts, inspired by the principles of “Design for All.” The goal is to allow anyone, including users with disabilities and individuals belonging to the weaker segments, to sail without barriers. Starting from an analysis of existing pleasure boats, the author identifies a series of factors limiting the accessibility or usability of external and internal spaces. In turn, he discusses the most suitable solutions to each. By proposing an extensive set of design solutions applicable to the confined spaces on yachts, and which comply with the relevant anthropometric and dimensional rules, the book offers a timely snapshot of the potential benefits and applicability of an inclusive approach to yacht design, setting a new reference standard for inclusive and accessible nautical design.
