Hiroshi Fujiwara has partnered with Maserati to bring his distinct design language to the MC20 Cielo sports car, marking the debut of the brand’s “Fuoriserie By” series. This initiative highlights exclusive collaborations with select tastemakers, and Fujiwara, the creative force behind the Japanese brand Fragment, is the first to reimagine Maserati’s flagship convertible. The result is two striking interpretations of the MC20 Cielo in Nero Vulcano and Bianco Audace colorways, both exuding a minimalist yet bold aesthetic.
Fujiwara’s vision is immediately evident in the exterior details. The iconic Maserati Trident emblem on the tonneau cover has been replaced with Fragment’s signature lightning bolt icon, seamlessly integrated into the monochromatic design. The Nero Vulcano version features a matte black lightning bolt badge, while the Bianco Audace sports a matching matte white emblem. The clean lines and restrained palette underscore the designer’s appreciation for simplicity and subtlety.
The interior mirrors the exterior’s understated elegance. Black leather seats with intricate white stitching, inspired by wave patterns, provide a refined contrast. The Maserati Trident emblem, though absent from the rear hood, is embroidered on the headrests, maintaining a connection to the brand’s heritage. Black Alcantara on the steering wheel, complemented by the same white stitching, enhances the luxurious yet sporty feel. A metal plate positioned between the headrests commemorates this unique collaboration, symbolizing the partnership between Maserati and Fujiwara.
Both versions of the MC20 Cielo are powered by Maserati’s F1-derived V6 Nettuno engine, paired with a dual-clutch transmission for exceptional performance. The sports car also features a retractable smart glass roof, capable of transitioning from clear to opaque with a single touch, adding to its innovative design. Produced at Maserati’s Modena plant, the car combines cutting-edge technology with meticulous craftsmanship.
This collaboration is a testament to Maserati’s ongoing relationship with Hiroshi Fujiwara and Fragment. It celebrates a shared commitment to pushing boundaries while honoring tradition. The Fuoriserie By Hiroshi Fujiwara MC20 Cielo configurations are available upon request, offering enthusiasts a chance to own a piece of this exclusive partnership.
