Nautys sets sail for new frontiers

The outdoor living and nautical leisure scene is booming – andincreasingly seeking durable, modern and distinctive furnishing solutions. Entering this dynamic arena Nautys is destined to elevate the expectations of yachting, outdoor and hospitality projects.

Nautys results from the synergy between three stellar companies: the Lucchesedesign studio, which boasts consolidated experience in product design, Summit X, a company that operates in diversified sectors with an innovative and tailor-made approach, and Gallinea, a manufacturer of nautical accessories and technological mechanisms for the yachting world.

"It is with great enthusiasm that we approach the launch of Nautys, created from the meeting of three companies with the ambition of creating something unique. I envisioned a new brand that combined innovative design, cutting-edge materials and advanced technologies, to redefine the experience of nautical, outdoor and hospitality furnishings," said Mr Seho Park, CEO of Summit X.

The first Nautys offering takes shape in an exclusive collection of unique, custom-made furniture, crafted from HIMACS in the classic Alpine White shade. This innovative Solid Surface is distinguished by outstanding technical and aesthetic features that can meet the most ambitious demands. Thanks to its excellent resilience, its resistance to external agents and its extraordinary formability, HIMACS allows any desired shape to be achieved, guaranteeing both maximum versatility and optimum performance for any sector. In addition to these properties, the material offers a smooth, non-porous surface with no visible joints, ensuring reliable durability, high standards of hygiene and exceptional fire and water resistance.

As Francesco Lucchese, founder of Studio Lucchesedesign, explains: "The inspiration stems from the sea, as a natural environnment in which people enjoy spontaneity and uplifting emotions. The psycho-physical requirement to adapt to this environment demands the use of materials that offer limitless solutions. We have chosen HIMACS to represent the Nautys brand through designs that evoke a luxurious sense of well-being. The special feeling of being outdoors and close to the sea becomes even more of a synaesthetic experience with Nautys”.

A connoisseur of HIMACS for many years, Francesco Lucchese has identified in this solid surface all the essential characteristics for creating the offering of the new Nautys brand, appealing not only as an aesthetic choice, but also to those who appreciate the substantial value of a material with infinite possibilities.

The versatility inherent in the HIMACS DNA allows for unique customisation, ensuring distinctive products for a variety of environments and applications, whether dining, seating, furniture or lighting. Each Nautys product is designed to integrate perfectly into outdoor, indoor and nautical settings, offering the consummate combination of lasting beauty and practicality, including excellent resistance to climatic conditions and to sea salt.

Although Nautys was created initially for marine and exterior applications, the new brand also aims to make a splash in residential workplace and hospitality contexts with an increasingly extensive product offer.

Furniture by Nautys in HIMACS will be on display at the "FROM SPACE TO TASTE" event hosted by Tricolore Design Hub (Piazza del Tricolore 1/entrance Viale Maino 2 - Milan) during Milan Design Week 2025 from 7 to 12 April, and at the Venice Boat Show from 29 May to 2 June 2025.
