Atmosphere design — São Paulo · Dubai

Your space. Unmistakably you.

The aft saloon of a yacht in soft daylight, cream linen seating and teak decking opening onto a calm harbour beyond the rail.
Late afternoon, at anchor.

Atmosphere design for the vessel you already own — made to feel like an extension of who you are.

Atmosphere is not decoration. It is recognition.

We begin by listening, not proposing. Who you are is the brief — not the vessel’s dimensions, not a trend.

Our craft is translation: a person, rendered in light, texture, object, and placement.

The result is not beauty. It is the feeling that every detail could not have been any other way.

Spaces that forget they were designed.

Yacht saloon at golden hour: a ribbed linen settee with striped cushions beside an open glass door leading to the teak aft deck and the sea.
II Main saloon — 45 Intermarine Golden hour, doors open to the aft deck. For a family that hosts rarely, and well.
Owner's cabin aboard a yacht: a centred bed dressed in white with a navy knitted throw and a straw hat resting on it, the sea visible through hull windows.
III Owner’s cabin — 45 Intermarine White linen, a navy knit, a straw hat. For someone who reads before sleep, every night, anywhere in the world.
Detail of a yacht sunpad: a fringed navy knitted throw and sand-toned cushions, with sunlit water beyond.
Bamboo joinery inside a yacht: a staircase, handrail and cabinetry crossed by a diagonal of natural sunlight.
Twin guest cabin in a yacht interior: beds dressed in textured knit throws beneath long windows framing the sea.
The close reading Knit, bamboo, linen — the materials that hold a day at sea.
Aft-deck dining at dusk: a teak table with woven cushioned chairs and a bowl of lemons, set against a calm sea and distant islands.
IV The aft table — 45 Intermarine Lemons, linen, the last of the light. For evenings that end later than planned.
Main saloon of a 24-metre yacht: a cream sofa layered with green cushions in soft lamplight, a rocky shoreline seen through the open aft doors.
V Main saloon — Intermarine 24M Lamplight against a quiet cove. For the hour the harbour goes still.

If a room here feels familiar, we should talk.

What we attend to

For vessels already at sea. No structural modification. No drydock.

  1. Private owners

    The vessel you already own, made to feel like it always knew you. No yard time. Art, material, textile, light, scent — every detail decided for one person.

  2. Charter operators

    Atmosphere that guests remember as a feeling, not a feature list. An identity your fleet can hold from season to season.

  3. With designers

    Art curation and atmosphere direction alongside residential practices — for clients whose vessel should speak the same language as their homes.

Your vessel stays exactly as it is. It simply becomes yours.

The three movements

  1. Listen

    It begins with a conversation, on board or over coffee. We ask more than we propose. Who are you, outside of all of this?

  2. Translate

    Identity becomes a language of space: light, texture, object, placement. You see every decision, and every decision is yours to confirm.

  3. Confirm

    Every detail either belongs or it doesn’t. We are finished when you step aboard and the space already knows you.

The first movement costs only a conversation. Begin a conversation

Olivia Larsen

Olivia Larsen grew up understanding that spaces speak.

Trained in interior design in Brazil, she learned early that a room is not a composition of objects — it is a composition of feelings.

Three and a half years designing for Intermarine taught her that the sea imposes an honesty on design that land never does. Every choice is tested. Every detail either belongs or it doesn’t.

Two years placing art at Galeria Luis Maluf taught her that objects carry lives — and that placing them well is a form of authorship.

Larsen Studio was born from the gap she kept seeing: a market full of technical excellence, and almost no one asking — who lives here, and what should this space say about them?

The answer was worth building a studio for.

A still sea meeting a grey-blue sky at the horizon, a band of silvered light resting on the water.
A space that knows you.
