Ferrari designer Flavio Manzoni has unveiled his concept for a super-futuristic spaceship.

ONE of the world’s most prestigious supercar manufacturers could be interested in branching out into a whole new world of design.

ONE of the world’s most prestigious supercar manufacturers could soon be branching out into spacecrafts.

Ferrari design director Flavio Manzoni recently unveiled his concept for a super-futuristic spaceship.

“It all started as a bit of fun,” he told Form Trends.

Mr Manzoni first sketched his ideas, which were brought to life in a 3D model by fellow Ferrari colleague Guillaume Vasseur.

The designs before they were brought to life.

The design shares many trademark characteristics of the car manufacturer including a front end that mimics the F1-derived spoiler used on the LaFerrari and the rear spoiler from the track-only FXX K.

“I tried to imagine something that can fly into the future, since there will be less and less space available on the ground, and I focused on creating a little craft that’s different from my childhood dream,” he said.

Chances are they will still be out of most people’s price range.

Mr Manzoni explained his childhood in Sardinia was responsible for his long-running infatuation with spacecrafts.

“I lived in a six-storey building, with a large terrace at the top,” he said.

“I thought that one day a UFO would land there. It disturbed me a little, but I was curious.”

While there appears to be no immediate plans for Ferrari to create the design, the innovative thinking is exciting nonetheless.
