ABOUT FERARRI 296 GTB DESIGNE

„When we were designing the LaFerrari I was inspired by the Anish Kapoor sculptures. Of course, we didn’t want to make organic shapes like the Kapoor sculptures, but there was an idea about how there could be a connection between the inside and outside surface of the car. But for the 296 GTB it was about elegance and simplicity. There is a beautiful phrase from the famous sculptor, Constantin Brâncuși, who was asked what simplicity meant to him, and he replied, ‘simplicity is complexity resolved’. And I think that was always our motto when designing the 296 GTB.“

Flavio Manzoni, Italian architect and automobile designer
