Guida
Founder and designer
Francesco Guida's connection with the sea began during his formative years, through sailing and time spent in shipyards. Those experiences shaped a conviction that still defines his work: every project starts from a direct understanding of how a boat is actually used.
After graduating in Naval and Mechanical Engineering, he built an international career spanning more than four decades, holding senior positions in general management, product development and the coordination of complex programmes within the yachting industry. He contributed to the development of complete yacht ranges and to the organisation of the industrial processes behind them.
That background is the cultural foundation of Santasevera: an independent design culture in which consistency, proportion and the onboard experience guide every decision.
"Anyone designing a boat needs to know the sea firsthand. A boat is not simply an object of design; it is a space that has to respond naturally to the way it is used."
