Design Spotlight: Ferrari Xezri Concept
THIS IS THE TYPE SHIT IM ADDICTED TO The 2nd prize winner of the 2011 Ferrari World Design Contest, Turin IED graduate Samir Sadikhov of Azerbaijan has created what might be the penultimate modern-day Ferrari design (subjectively, nothing beats an early model Ferrari 250 GT Cabriolet). Designed with “flexible aerodynamics” principles, Sadikhov’s concept proposes a roof mounted rear wing that activates over 125 mph that not only aids air flow for performance but also opens an air intake for engine cooling. The pure, unadulterated design of the Xezri is its golden egg though, somehow managing to look both ultra-modern while recalling a look of yesteryear’s Ferrari.
FOOD FOR THOUGHT
I FIND MY SELF EXCITED ABOUT THE FUTURE IN THE SAME WAY The Dalai Lama, when asked what surprised him most about humanity, answered “Man…. Because he sacrifices his health in order to make money. Then he sacrifices money to recuperate his health. And then he is so anxious about the future that he does not enjoy the present; the result being that he does not live in the present or the future; he lives as if he is never going to die, and then dies having never really lived.”
