Really enjoyed seeing this! Ken's own style is seen in this nod to past wedges, (2 of which also bear the name ’Zero,’ the Japanese ’78 Dome Zero and ’70 Lancia Stratos Zero by Bertone), Ken’s Kode 0 is cognizant of Guigiaro’s folded paper phase, like the earliest Esprit, though is more flinty than flat. Beneath a clear cover the engine rests within track ready type structure while through the elegantly sculpted doors that slice upward, a private, emerald gated cocoon invites with dove grey interior elements and diamond stitched seats. With so much carbon fiber, it weighs 600 pounds less than the Aventador it’s built on, so with the 6.5L V12 it does 0 to 60 in 2.9s. If there’s inspiration from nature, a manta ray’s gills and cephalic lobes are scooping air into the grill and below the side windows, shaded by the roof connecting to the rear fender. Like the Kode 57, the Kode 0’s door mechanism and large, sculptural shapes reach upward, themselves art and function. #Concorso #Supercar #Kode #Kode0 #KenOkuyama #scissordoor #buttress #aventador#bespoke #ArtCenterDegree #designinspiration #Ferrari #wedge #bertone #italdesign #giugiaro #gandini #pinin #prototype #one-off #designreporter #ChristineReed #CarPhotographer #CarPhotos #carphotography #carsofinstagram (at Bayonet & Black Horse Golf Courses)
