Over the years, Rolls-Royce Motor Cars has transformed from an elegant marque with centuries of craftsmanship into a creative powerhouse, giving clients the ability to truly personalize their cars and SUVs, almost like a blank canvas. In addition to offering bespoke paint shades and interior comforts, the brand has also enlisted professional artists to reimagine Rolls-Royce models into rolling works of art.
Curated by its Private Offices in Seoul, New York, and Goodwood, Rolls-Royce Motor Cars is pleased to debut its latest creative collaboration with French painter and graffiti artist Cyril Kongo, featuring a bespoke, hand-painted Rolls-Royce Cullinan Black Badge as part of a series of five exclusive examples. 
Instead of stopping at off-catalog paint colors or upgraded trim packages, Rolls-Royce gave Kongo the freedom to completely restyle the interiors by hand. His graffiti-inspired artwork spans across the dashboard, center console, rear seating area, picnic tables, and even the renowned starlight headliner. Every car follows the same overall design theme, but each one gets its own artwork and painted details, making all five completely unique collector cars.
The interiors are where the personalities of these Cullinans really shine. Rolls-Royce divided the interiors into various color zones using bright shades like Phoenix Red, Mandarin, Forge Yellow, and Turchese, for a much louder, more vibrant feel than most people typically think of Rolls-Royce. The driver’s seat, passenger seat, and rear seating areas all carry their own contrasting color schemes, while matching stitching, piping, carpets, and embroidered “RR” logos tie the artistic vision together.
Overhead, the hand-painted starlight headliner is most definitely the wildest detail of the entire build. The ceiling showcases more than 1,300 fiber-optic lights with Kongo’s artwork, showing off abstract planets, symbols, and references to quantum physics hidden throughout the piece. Rolls-Royce prepped more than 70 paint colors to use during production, with every detail hand-painted directly onto the interior surfaces. Even the placement of the illuminated “stars” was individually mapped out as part of the process.
Finished in a dark Blue Crystal over Black, each Cullinan features a new, gradient coachline that shifts colors along the bodyline from front to rear, a first-ever for Rolls-Royce. Matching brake calipers, illuminated tread plates, embroidered details, and hidden Kongo Easter eggs throughout the SUV make this collaboration one of the most creative of all time. These five Cullinans show just how far Rolls-Royce is willing to go to create something nobody else on the road will ever have.
