Rolls-Royce Presents Cullinan Cosmos: A One-of-One Commission Inspired by the Drama of Space
Rolls-Royce has once again redefined the boundaries of luxury craftsmanship with the unveiling of the Cullinan Cosmos, a one-of-one Bespoke creation that celebrates the mystery and magnificence of outer space. Commissioned by a family in Dubai through the Rolls-Royce Private Office, the Cullinan Cosmos is a truly unique project inspired by the family’s shared fascination with the universe, particularly with their four-year-old son’s curiosity about the stars.
At its heart lies a world-first innovation for Rolls-Royce: a fully hand-painted Starlight Headliner, created over 160 painstaking hours by one of the marque’s in-house artists. This celestial artwork captures the breathtaking beauty of the Milky Way, making the Cullinan Cosmos as much a piece of art as it is an extraordinary motor car.
Exterior Palette: Outer Limits
The Cullinan Cosmos is cloaked in Arabescato Pearl, a shimmering finish that mirrors the glow of moonlight on a midnight sky. A hand-painted Charles Blue twin coachline accentuates the car’s contours, while the Illuminated Spirit of Ecstasy completes the theme, glowing like a star guiding the way at night.
Interior Suite: Exploring Inner Space
Step inside, and the Cullinan Cosmos reveals a serene, meditative space reminiscent of deep space stillness. The reclining seats are upholstered in Charles Blue and Grace White leather, detailed with precise contrast stitching and piping. Piano White veneers evoke the polished finish of spacecraft exteriors, blending luxury with a futuristic edge.
A specially designed Star Cluster motif—created in collaboration with the commissioning family—adorns the cabin. This bespoke detail appears as embroidery on the door panels and headrests, and even as a hand-painted work of art on the passenger fascia.
Hand-Painted Starlight Headliner: New Horizons
The Starlight Headliner in the Cullinan Cosmos is unlike anything Rolls-Royce has ever created before. Painted entirely by hand, the artwork captures the ethereal glow of the Milky Way, layered with more than 20 applications of acrylic paint to achieve depth and luminosity.
The artist employed a variety of brushes—including an unexpected makeup brush—to create delicate cosmic mists, while speckling techniques brought the stars to life with organic authenticity. Once the painting was completed and sealed, fibre-optic perforations were meticulously punched by hand to align perfectly with the celestial design, transforming the cabin into a personal journey through the stars.
A Commission Through Dubai’s Private Office
The Cullinan Cosmos is a shining example of how Rolls-Royce’s Bespoke Collective pushes artistic and engineering boundaries to bring visionary ideas to life. Commissioned through the Private Office Dubai, it demonstrates the brand’s commitment to bringing its most exclusive services closer to clients with bold imaginations.
Delivered just in time for a family celebration, the Cullinan Cosmos is more than a motor car—it’s a memory crafted in steel, leather, paint, and light, designed to turn every journey into a voyage through the cosmos.
