us to extend our creative research into a context different from our usual one. In reality, the Design Studio is not new to this kind of endeavour. In the past, the experience gained in racing car projects, one of the most technologically advanced sectors, has encouraged exploration into more complex fields, allowing us to test ourselves and expand our expertise.”

A significant example is the solar panels, integrated into the deck and hull sides. Their positioning was determined through an advanced study of the solar exposure Hypersail will experience during navigation. The panels are walkable and feature a specific grip; they have been integrated with technical fastening systems, clips and dedicated treatments, ensuring maximum freedom of movement for the crew. 

“Hypersail is a vessel unique in scale and technology, engineered to deliver peak performance within an environment as singular and unpredictable as the ocean. This is achieved through its core concept: foiling, made possible by a sophisticated control system, leveraging the expertise gained from our
automotive developments, and powered by energy recovered from renewable sources such as wind, solar, and motion,” explains Matteo Lanzavecchia, Head of Vehicle Engineering at Ferrari and Chief Technology Officer of Hypersail. “The strategic choice of a monohull arises from the synergy between
maximum hydrodynamic and aerodynamic efficiency. Throughout every design phase, the collaboration with the Design Studio allowed us to accentuate and refine Hypersail’s forms and features, establishing it as a definitive benchmark of design and innovation.” The livery: Giallo, Ferrari’s second soul In developing the vessel’s livery, the Ferrari Design Studio sought to bridge Hypersail’s vanguard design with the brand’s aesthetic heritage.

The chosen chromatic response is the Giallo Fly, a shade of yellow steeped in narrative legacy. Giallo has historically represented Ferrari’s “second soul.” Originally inspired by an intuition from Fiamma Breschi, friend of Enzo Ferrari and widow of driver Luigi Musso, famous for his yellow helmet, Giallo Fly first appeared on the 275 GTB. In the context of Hypersail, the Giallo Fly with the name "Fly" creates a seamless linguistic link with the vessel’s foiling nature.

The primary material of the hull is carbon fiber: its grey tone, in a new variant named Grigio Hypersail, defines the livery, serving not only as an aesthetic choice but also as tangible expression of the material’s inherent lightness and performance.

In this innovative project, the interplay between Grigio Hypersail and the iconic Giallo Fly creates an aesthetic that is both cohesive and functional. Applied to the cabin, foils and hull lines, the yellow evokes the stylistic codes of the most celebrated Ferrari cars, strongly expressing the brand’s DNA and echoing the distinct color separation of the 512 BB, the first “integrated” livery. 

From the hull to the Ferrari logo on the sail, introduced to ensure continuity with a distinctive visual presence of the elongated “F” seen in recent years (the wing of the 2023/2024 F1 car, Lifestyle, the Daytona SP3 donated for the charity auction in Pebble Beach), to details inspired by LaFerrari and the lines of the F80, Hypersail defines a new paradigm between design and function in offshore sailing.

The exhibition at the Ferrari Flagship Store and the lighthouse-installation During Design Week, from April 22 to 26, the Hypersail project will be showcased through a dedicated exhibition path within the Ferrari Flagship Store in Milan. Embodying the pillars of design, innovation, and performance, the project also features the Hypersail lighthouse-installation, an exclusive sculpture by the Ferrari Design Studio on the HIGHLINE Milano main terrace overlooking Piazza del Duomo. This iconic symbol positions Hypersail as a new symbol of inspiration for the future of technology and performance in offshore sailing.
