The latest one-of-one vehicle to emerge from Rolls-Royce Bespoke is the new Cullinan Cosmos, and it was commissioned through the Rolls-Royce Private Office Dubai where Rolls-Royce clients are able to commission their bespoke vehicles with an experience that parallels the luxury of commissioning a car at Goodwood at luxury hubs across the globe.

The ultra-luxury SUV commission is inspired by the beauty of outer space and the celestial bodies seen across the vast expanse of the cosmos, and that inspiration comes from the family and their four-year-old son’s shared love for outer space.

Arabescato Pearl is the special exterior color for the vehicle, evoking moonlight with a Charles Blue coachline and a Spirit of Ecstasy that mimics a distant star. Meanwhile, the interior features reclining seats upholstered with Charles Blue and Grace White leather, with Piano White veneers and a special Star Cluster motif.

However, the true star of the commission is appropriately the Starlight Headliner, which is the first fully hand-painted Starlight Headliner to be fitted to a Rolls-Royce, and the result of a painstaking 160 hours of development. Painted freehand by a Rolls-Royce artist, the painting depicts an ethereal interpretation of the Milky Way, with a makeup brush creatively used to achieve the lightest layers of color.

After the painting was completed, the lights were installed in the headliner to complement the details of the painting. Serving as an opulent ode to the vastness and mysterious beauty of the universe on four wheels, the new Rolls-Royce Cullinan Cosmos is one of the greatest and most ambitious Rolls-Royce Bespoke commissions yet.
