This is conceptual only...but what a design!

The Voroni algorithm is based on points across a plane. Polygons are drawn around the points...the space within the polygon is closest to its own point (only).

The design applied to the yacht is on the link:

If they build it outside of a computer that's going to be a bugger to clean! I wouldn't fancy sailing her in open water during a storm either, you'd get all sorts of random wind effects off that lattice.

I was thinking golf balls on the lower deck.
But it does look kinda cool.
