Designers have unveiled designs for an astonishing new gigayacht that takes its inspiration from the hammerhead shark.

The £860 million ($1 billion) vessel, known as Outrageous, is the brainchild of the Italian design studio Lazzarini.

The design, spanning 1,056 feet in length, incorporates shark-like features such as windows resembling teeth and gills.

A substantial top deck extends beyond the bow, imitating the distinctive eye and nostril characteristics of its marine muse.

The yacht is also adorned in a shark-like grey hue for added thematic influence.

A cleverly designed heliport can accommodate two helicopters but can also retract to reveal the yacht's lush interior.

Due to its considerable length, owners have the option to use a golf buggy to traverse from one end to the other.

Additional amenities include five swimming pools, solar panels, generous deck space for relaxation, and space for multiple tenders at the stern.

Lazzarini says, "At this stage, the Outrageous is merely a concept, but we estimate the production cost for a client to be approximately 1 billion euros (£860 million)."
