Design is not just a visual presentation of a pleasing aesthetic structure, it is a complex solution of aesthetic, ergonomic and engineering tasks. In our practice, design means a complete and detailed set of plans, calculations and specifications with supporting documentation ready for the manufacturing process to begin.

With its extensive investment in the latest available design software and testing equipment it is without doubt one of the most advanced design offices in the world. Most of AMD's designs are in the 30 to 50 foot range, with some in the 90 to 120 foot range with specialization on high-speed craft and catamarans. By hull material, AMD designs in composites (55% of all designs), aluminum (40%), also steel and wood.
