Best Custom Motor Yacht: Interior ~ Linda Lou
The 60-meter Lürssen Linda Lou is one of a pair of motor yachts delivered to a Florida couple at about the same time last year. The interiors of both are outstanding, but the interior of the larger Linda Lou is a masterpiece that simply blew our editors away. The owners chose François Zuretti to style the yacht. They explored with Zuretti a timeless style that borrows elements of modern and art deco, with a bit of beach house thrown in for spice. Whereas the couple chose dark mahogany with a satin finish for the other half of the pair, a Trinity named Lady Linda, Zuretti encouraged them to explore more unique woods and a mix of gloss and satin finishes for the German build. The design teams of both yachts were given the same general orders: Make the windows big, the spaces flow and the decks open; eliminate hallways where possible and tighten up sprawling staircases. Missions accomplished with style. Linda Lou’s interior is a stunner of the first order.
