Rolls-Royce Unveils Black Badge Cullinan ‘Blue Shadow’: A Celestial Journey into the Infinite Beauty of Space

Rolls-Royce Motor Cars is proud to introduce the extraordinary Black Badge Cullinan ‘Blue Shadow,’ a unique creation inspired by the enigmatic realm of outer space. This remarkable vehicle, crafted by the renowned Rolls-Royce Bespoke Collective, draws inspiration from the Kármán Line, an invisible boundary 62 miles above the Earth’s surface, where the atmosphere gives way to the vast expanse of outer space.

The Black Badge Cullinan ‘Blue Shadow’ Private Collection is a testament to Rolls-Royce’s relentless pursuit of perfection and a celebration of the spirit of exploration. It is designed for individuals who embody the essence of adventure, pushing boundaries and representing the pinnacle of human endeavor.

The exterior of the Black Badge Cullinan ‘Blue Shadow’ is adorned with the captivating ‘Stardust Blue’ bespoke paint, reminiscent of the deep blue hues found in the upper layers of the Earth’s atmosphere. The satin-tinted grille surround and aero bumper insert sets pay homage to the thermal tiles used on Space Shuttles, which protect them from the intense heat during atmospheric re-entry. The iconic Spirit of Ecstasy hood ornament is crafted using advanced 3D printing techniques, utilizing titanium and finished with a delicate layer of blue-tinted lacquer, creating a mesmerizing pearlescent effect. The Black Badge infinity logo and ‘Blue Shadow’ Private Collection name are engraved on the Spirit of Ecstasy base, infilled with Charles Blue. The wheels of the Blue Shadow edition are subtly darkened using a translucent lacquer, adding to the vehicle’s distinctive allure.

Stepping into the interior of the Black Badge Cullinan ‘Blue Shadow’ is like entering a realm of elevated perspective. The painted fascia and door panels showcase a breathtaking representation of the transition from the ethereal blue halo at the Kármán Line to the profound darkness of outer space. Six layers of paint, incorporating five different shades of blue and a deep black hue, are meticulously applied to create a mesmerizing three-dimensional effect. A clear-coat layer, enriched with blue and clear glass particles, adds depth and luster, with the precise ratio of particles determined to perfection. The bespoke clock, exclusive to the Private Collection, features light blue anodized details and ‘Blue Shadow’ engraving, adding a touch of elegance to the interior ambiance.

Taking the celestial experience to new heights, the Black Badge Cullinan ‘Blue Shadow’ features the ‘Edge of Space’ headliner. The renowned Starlight Headliner is elevated with intricate Moon embroidery, surrounded by a constellation of ‘stars,’ immersing passengers in the mystical ambiance of space. The three-dimensional embroidery represents the Moon’s surface, meticulously crafted with five different colors of thread and 250,000 individual stitches, taking two days to complete. The Starlight Headliner contains a total of 1,183 hand-placed ‘stars,’ 799 in white and 384 in blue, creating a mesmerizing celestial glow.

A groundbreaking addition to the interior is the perforated leather artwork that adorns the front and rear seats. Inspired by the view of Earth from space, the intricate pattern evokes the ever-shifting clouds swirling over the continents and oceans. Each seat features over 75,000 individually placed perforations, meticulously designed and aligned to create a cohesive appearance. The pattern extends to the picnic table backs, which, when lowered, reveal a captivating Piano Black veneer with a glass sparkle finish, reminiscent of the mysterious depths of space. The inlaid polished aluminum text beneath the lacquer layer reads, ‘The Blue Shadow occurs at the outer extremes of our world, affording an

extraordinary perspective and the ability to touch the stars.’

To complement the Black Badge Cullinan ‘Blue Shadow,’ Rolls-Royce Bespoke Collective has crafted a range of exclusive accessories. The indoor car cover features a pattern inspired by the seats, while a unique luggage set continues the colorway of the Private Collection.

Prepare to be immersed in cosmic wonder with the ‘Edge of Space’ headliner.

Delicate Moon embroidery takes center stage, surrounded by a constellation of ‘stars,’ as if gazing upon the lunar surface and the vastness of space itself. Crafted with meticulous attention to detail, the embroidery utilizes five different colors of thread, intricately applied through various techniques, resulting in a texture that replicates the Moon’s craters in breathtaking three-dimensional form.

Elevating the interior ambiance even further, the Black Badge Cullinan ‘Blue Shadow’ features a groundbreaking perforated leather artwork adorning the

front and rear seats. Inspired by the mesmerizing view of Earth from space, this intricate pattern is achieved through thousands of precisely placed perforations that evoke the ever-shifting clouds swirling above the continents and oceans. The land is represented by smaller perforations measuring a mere 0.8 mm in diameter, while larger perforations of 1.2 mm define the sea. The interplay between the leather and blank spaces mimics the ethereal nature of clouds. With over 75,000 individual perforations meticulously applied to each seat, the pattern required two weeks of design and underwent five trials to ensure impeccable quality and alignment. The result is a harmonious, uniform appearance across all four seats, evoking a sense of serenity and evocative beauty. The perforation pattern gracefully extends to the picnic table backs, which, when lowered, reveal a stunning Piano Black veneer with a glass sparkle finish, reminiscent of the captivating darkness of space. Each table bears the Collection theme text, inlaid in polished aluminum beneath the top lacquer layer, further reinforcing the Blue Shadow’s enchanting narrative: ‘The Blue Shadow occurs at the outer extremes of our world, affording an extraordinary perspective and the ability to touch the stars.’
