In 1923, Willy Messerschmitt, a pioneer in aviation, revolutionised the aerospace industry by designing lightweight aircraft that set enduring standards in aerodynamics and transportation.

Today, this legacy continues through Messerschmitt Yachts, founded by Felix P. Messerschmitt in Bern, Switzerland. Combining tradition with advanced technology, the company specialises in creating innovative custom yacht and boat designs that seamlessly blend heritage with modern innovation.

The principles behind the brand emphasise functionality, simplicity, and streamlined forms, prioritising both efficiency and visual harmony.

MTT Voyageur is deeply influenced by the aviation legacy of Willy Messerschmitt as well as drawing on automotive design cues. Inspired by these industries, the designer is focused on aerodynamic efficiency, where every curve and line serves a purpose, achieving both performance and beauty.

MTT Voyageur reflects passion for travel and exploration. It is crafted for an owner who seeks adventure, constant discovery and the joy of exploring the world’s oceans. Designed for long range cruising, the yacht provides safety, efficiency and exceptional comfort.

“MTT Voyageur has a sleek, striking silhouette and clear, refined lines offer both elegance and practicality, with deck arrangements that provide comfort and flexibility, perfectly adaptable to the owner’s personal vision and lifestyle,” explained Felix P. Messerschmitt.

“MTT Voyageur is ideal for those who appreciate sophistication, freedom and the thrill of constant exploration.

“Drawing on my family’s rich aviation design heritage, my expertise lies in creating innovative custom yachts that blend tradition with cutting-edge technology.

“I am deeply inspired by the principles that Willy Messerschmitt pursued in his work, prioritising functionality, simplicity and streamlined forms that are both efficient and visually harmonious.

“For me, the key to exceptional yacht design lies in achieving a perfect balance between the hull and superstructure. It’s the silhouette of the yacht that first captures your attention on the horizon, and I believe this initial impression should communicate elegance, power and coherence.

“What sets a yacht apart is the way every element works in harmony, from the bold design lines to the symmetry of window elements and other structural details. This approach not only creates a clean and timeless aesthetic but also ensures that the yacht maintains a distinct, recognisable identity.

“At the core of our approach is a commitment to sustainable design, digital innovation and agile project management. Each yacht is designed with a focus on minimising environmental impact while offering unparalleled luxury and performance.

“This forward-thinking mindset ensures that every project remains ahead of industry trends while addressing the growing demand for eco-friendly solutions in yacht design.”

Interiors by Studio Liaigre

This collaboration stemmed from a sincere and shared enthusiasm for working together; the two studios were a natural fit, as Studio Liaigre’s interior design philosophy harmonised with Felix P. Messerschmitt’s vision for yacht design.

The yacht name ‘Voyageur’, inspired by the French word for traveller, perfectly finds its continuation in the collaboration with Studio Liaigre, which is based in Paris.

An aligned architectural philosophy made the partnership smooth and invigorating, while the project’s vision allows the teams to blend modern innovation with timeless craftsmanship.

This design is an answer to a contemporary and dynamic everyday lifestyle. The philosophy defended by Studio Liaigre is to create harmonious and well-proportioned spaces, organized and centred around a scenario imagined and designed ad hoc for a living place adapted to all moments: family vacation and leisure, home office, informal moments and parties with friends, formal receptions, daily life and more.
