Bannenberg & Rowell Ltd is a direct descendant of the legendary studio Jon Bannenberg Ltd, The convention breaking studio founded by Director Dickie Bannenberg’s father in London in the early 1960s. Dickie Bannenberg and Simon Rowell continue the vision of the founder, and lead the design team in new directions: working with all the major shipyards; designing residences for private clients and real estate developers; collaborating with furniture makers and developing other creative partnerships. 

The studio provides a full design service for both exterior and interior design and is synonymous with large custom motor yacht design. 

Rebranded in 2003 as Creative Director Simon Rowell joined the management team, the second-generation studio has delivered some forty yacht projects – with an array of real estate and transportation projects in parallel.
