Well, a startup luxury brand called Inkar has partnered with Pininfarina to design a Modulo-inspired iPhone case.
Pininfarina designer Paolo Lugaro was tasked with adapting the car’s form into something that fits around an iPhone Pro 13 or 14:
This being a luxury brand, the copy is laden with the usual tripe:
“Each case is fully customizable and has a serial number engraved to record its rare existence. Materials are selected with highest quality, including the sustainable solution of using dead-stock leathers of renowned Pininfarina automobiles. For customization, there are 5 colors, 2 lens leathers, and 10 plates made of leathers, natural wood, carbon fiber, and aluminum, available for customers to select from.”
“The cases are carefully crafted one by one in Italy, at one of the finest factories that produces luxury goods using the latest technology.”
Oh boy.
Unsurprisingly, these will be limited edishhh, with just 99 made. They go up for sale on December 1st, with prices “starting from” $10,000. I’ll probably pick up a half-dozen or so for friends, family, neighbors.
