ROLLS-ROYCE APPARITION

THERE IS THE ICONIC ROLLS-ROYCE PHANTOM AND THE CLASSIC ROLLS-ROYCE GHOST, NOW THERE IS THE STUNNING ROLLS-ROYCE APPARITION. UNLIKE ITS PRODUCTION COUNTERPARTS, THE APPARITION IS PURELY A DESIGN STUDY. IT'S THE BRAINCHILD OF DESIGNER JEREMY WESTERLUND, WHO DESIGNED IT AS AN INDEPENDENT PROJECT WHILE STUDYING AT THE ART CENTER. THE IDEA BLENDS CLASSIC DESIGN ELEMENTS WITH FUTURISTIC ONES, WITH MAHOGANY WHEEL INSERTS AND A SHAPE THAT PLACES THE CHAUFFEUR OUT IN THE OPEN LIKE IN VINTAGE MOTOR CARRIAGES, WITH THE OCCUPANTS CODDLED INSIDE. ALTHOUGH JUST A DESIGN FOR THE TIME BEING, THE MODEL ITSELF IS NEARLY SIX FEET LONG, AND IN REALITY WOULD MEASURE OVER 23 FEET LONG, OR FOUR FEET LONGER THAN THE PHANTOM SALOON.
