The Ferrari Sigma, also known as the Ferrari Sigma Grand Prix, is a work of V12 art. Designed in 1969, it was a Formula One show car built by the infamous Italian brand out of Cambiano, Italy – Pininfarina.

But, it doesn’t stop there. Pininfarina announced recently that they will be buildling luxury apartment and condominimum buildings with brandings such as Gucci and Prada on them. The high level Italian design firm is set to become a major player in the high-end real estate market.

Look for this brand to take on more of its own identity in the near future.
