A superyacht salon is more than a central living space. It is where guests relax, socialise and spend much of their time onboard. When upholstery no longer reflects the yacht’s character or level of comfort, the entire interior can feel dated, even if the layout remains unchanged. This project is focused on reviving a superyacht salon through bespoke upholstery, enhancing both the visual identity of the space and the way it is experienced on a daily basis. Before: an interior that needed a revival Before the refit, the salon upholstery showed clear signs of wear. Fabrics had lost their structure, seating no longer offered the level of comfort expected, and the overall atmosphere felt tired and inconsistent. Although the layout worked well, the materials and finishes no longer matched the yacht’s standards. The Approach: tailored solutions, not standard answers Rather than applying generic solutions, the refit focused on bespoke upholstery...

Superyacht refits operate under tight schedules, often with dozens of trades working simultaneously on board. In this environment, delivering on time depends as much on coordination and method as on craftsmanship itself. At Revival, the key to meeting deadlines lies in our ability to prepare, structure and anticipate each phase of the project.A refit begins long before entering the shipyard. Our team first carries out a detailed survey and defines how the project will be carried out. Most of the work of upholstery components, carpets or cushions, is developed off-site. This reduces the time we need on board and prevents delays caused by overlapping trades.Coordination plays a key role in a successful superyacht refit. We maintain direct communication with shipyard project managers to align our schedule with carpentry, engineering, painting and electrical teams. This allows us to intervene exactly when the space is available,...

The future of luxury yachting is being shaped by responsibility. As sustainability becomes important in the marine industry, textiles are key in designing, refitting, and living in modern superyachts. At Revival, we believe that sustainable innovation must coexist with beauty, comfort and performance. Our mission is to use eco-friendly yacht textiles in every superyacht refit project. These materials respect the environment and meet high standards for durability and style. Rethinking Materials for a New Era For years, yacht interiors have relied on synthetic fabrics derived from petroleum-based sources. Today, the industry is transitioning towards eco-conscious alternatives that reduce environmental impact without compromising on quality. These include: Recycled polyester and nylon, made from post-consumer plastic waste collected from oceans and coastlines. Organic cotton and natural linen, produced without pesticides or synthetic fertilizers. Plant-based fibres such as Tencel™ and bamboo, known for breathability and low environmental footprint. Revival chooses each material...
