Behind The Design: Secretlab for Automobili Lamborghini

By August 30, 2024 October 1st, 2024 No Comments

Fusing the essence of Automobili Lamborghini’s super sports car designs with Secretlab’s proprietary ergonomic technology, the Secretlab for Automobili Lamborghini Collection is all about challenging the status quo. It exquisitely encapsulates the spirit of innovation, performance, and arresting design, bringing together the most distinctive elements of both brands.

In the latest chapter of this brand collaboration, the Secretlab for Automobili Lamborghini Collection returns with an expanded lineup of products for building the ultimate apex setup. Meet the Secretlab MAGNUS Pro for Automobili Lamborghini Edition and Secretlab for Automobili Lamborghini Deluxe Editions — available in Giallo Auge and Verde Selvans.

Infused with the performance heritage of Automobili Lamborghini

The officially licensed chairs combine the precision of Italian craftsmanship with the groundbreaking ergonomics of our flagship TITAN Evo. Accentuated by the brand’s most iconic colors, Verde Selvans and Giallo Auge capture the lively spirit of Automobili Lamborghini.

The Giallo Auge Edition in particular is a nod to the color that first debuted on the iconic Lamborghini Urus — the first super sport utility vehicle in the world. Bright yellow accents outline the sleek silhouette of the chair, flowing seamlessly from the shoulders down to the seat base and conveying a sense of movement and speed.  

A 3D textured logo badge is affixed to the back of the chair, reflecting the relentless power of the brand. “This detail is inspired by the logo badge on their cars, so owners feel like they really have a piece of Automobili Lamborghini in their home,” said Gabriel Lim, Senior Industrial Designer at Secretlab. 

For decades, Automobili Lamborghini has been known for incorporating advanced and lightweight carbon fiber technology into its automobiles to enhance performance and agility. “We decided to use carbon fiber leatherette panels on the back and side wings to add a technical edge to the chair’s aesthetic. It’s also a subtle nod to our Pinnacle Edition chair, which featured a carbon fiber top shell,” said Gabriel. “The carbon fiber panels are framed by black microsuede for an even more stealthy look.”

“The design elements flow seamlessly from the chair to the matching Secretlab MAGNUS Pro for Automobili Lamborghini Edition for a cohesive look when you put them all together,” said Gabriel. “Our goal was to create a high-performance setup that mirrors the understated sophistication of Automobili Lamborghini cars, with the use of carefully curated materials and subtle design details such as their signature colors and Y-shaped pattern,” For an added touch of quiet luxury, the Secretlab MAGNUS Pro for Automobili Lamborghini Edition comes complete with a microsuede MAGPAD™ Desk Mat, covered in a lavish textured nap finish that feels incredible under your fingertips.

As a nod to the brand’s Italian roots, the Secretlab MAGNUS Pro for Automobili Lamborghini Edition and matching MAGNUS Cable Management Bundle XL also feature the green, white, and red of the Italian flag. Tri-colored magnetic cable anchors keep your cables exactly where you want them. Magnetic cable sheaths — stamped with the Automobili Lamborghini logo — snap easily onto the desk legs of the MAGNUS Pro to make cable routing a breeze.

Racing toward the pinnacle of performance

Having sold out just minutes after its release, the highly limited Secretlab for Automobili Lamborghini Pinnacle Edition is the purest expression of fine craftsmanship and science-backed ergonomics. With only 50 pieces ever crafted worldwide, the Pinnacle Edition is a symbol of exclusivity from start to finish — proudly indicated by a numbered “01 di 50” badge on the back of the chair. The final wave of Secretlab for Automobili Lamborghini Pinnacle Edition was released back in August 2023, marking the last chance for avid collectors and enthusiasts to secure their very own piece of this exclusive collaboration.

A custom carbon fiber top plate was created specially for the chair, drawing inspiration from Automobili Lamborghini’s iconic angular form. Carbon fiber is prized for its exceptional strength and aerodynamic performance, making it the material of choice for Automobili Lamborghini’s fastest super sports cars.

To ensure that it could be shaped properly and seamlessly incorporated into the chair, no effort was spared to understand carbon fiber as a material. Secretlab engineers painstakingly evaluated different types of carbon fiber, each with a unique weave pattern, thickness, and resin composition.

“The carbon fiber shell alone went through over 20 iterations, with multiple refinements to various stages of the manufacturing process, including curing and finishing. Multiple iterations were also required to optimize its structural design and find the right balance between strength, flexibility, and weight,” said Gabriel.
