Electric Ferrari… Whaaaaa?

The Ferrari Millenio, as the name might allude, is a futuristic super-car concept that features a complex combination of materials and technologies that we can hope will become a serious reality before the end of the next millenium. The two-seater includes a buckypaper reinforced body that is stronger than steel and lighter than carbon fiber as well as dual electric engines that can be recharged via solar panels or through an inductive power transfer system.

Drama Queen

I have always seen the Ferrari brand as something masculine and I credit this with being the reason I’ve also never seen a girl driving one! The Aliante, however, appears to be the work of someone who is well in touch with their gentler side! I don’t know if it’s the exaggerated fenders that look like big hips, or the dramatic curvaceousness of the body, but it’s a different take on the stallion and I like it! Can’t you just hear gossip coming out of the wide-mouthed, smirking front grill?!

If I Could Have Sex With a Car

Set aside all your humility for just a moment and imagine yourself behind the wheel of this sexy beast! Designer Aldo Schurmann imagines the Ferrari Celeritas concept as not only a performance power-horse, but a red carpet-ready luxury toy for the unapologetic millionaire. Its style is quite shameless… and I love it. Simply put- it will always look hotter than the other guy’s. I’ll take the red one, of course.

法拉利安全帽

聽好了，假如我得犧牲髮型戴安全帽，那麼我的安全帽最好是夠時尚有型─就像這頂法拉利安全帽一樣。為了向法拉利車系中的經典 Maranello 車款致敬，這頂安全帽渾身散發出奢華的氣質，但它好歹還是能提供使用者頭部的完整保護。經過緞面拋光處理的鋁製表層連內襯的邊緣都包覆住了，不僅能防止磨損，也讓它更容易清理。

Ferrari Head Protector

Listen, if I have to risk helmet hair I’m gonna do it in style – Ferrari Helmet Style. An homage to the historic Maranello tradition, the Ferrari Helmet Style exudes luxury and oozes with presence but a helmet, no matter how luxurious, needs to protect your head.  Satin-finish aluminium details protect and surround the edge of the padding, making it even more abrasion-resistant and easier to clean.

Growling Sharp Ferrari

Take a peek at this lovely sharp sports car with the Ferrari name slapped on it, inspired by the form language of Credo E-Bone, another design by the same designer that’s no less that a city bus. That, and the bones of animals and humans are where this comes from. This designer takes the Italian dynamic and organic, soft shapes that are closest to nature. Inside and out, this vehicle is meant to radiate energy and power.

Magnificent Men And Their Flying Ferrari

While designer Iman Maghsoudi gave us a Ferrari that was akin to operating a PC touching speeds of 200 km/h; designer Vincent Montreuil has a different vision for the speedster. Adding a third dimension to the pulsating sport, he envisions race tracks in the air, demarcated with levitating lines (or ropes; u get the drift); and a Flying Ferrari X-Racer in the forefront. Call him crazy or over-ambitious, but it’s not hard to imagine his concept taking shape…say 50 years from now!

Ferrari Joins London

Perhaps you’ve been? London is a home to many, many fine shops, quite a few of them dedicated to one single brand. Lots of them are the kind of brand that has a couple shops and that’s it! Ferrari. What do you think of when you think of this brand? Exclusivity? The patented red + yellow? Crazy conceptual works? Better wear sunglasses in here.

Designer: Massimo Iosa Ghini

Smooth Sophisticated Smoking

When I think of pipe smoking, I imagine an older generation of men sitting around reading newspapers or conversing about times gone by. Yet with this new and sleek pipe design by Hakan Bogazpinar, I can see a much more hip, younger crowd partaking in its’ pleasures. Eolos is our modern day pipe. With a smooth, almost aerodynamic design, it looks the Ferrari for pipe smokers.
