Italdesign’s $1.7 Million ZeroUno Supercar

Although founder Giorgetto Giugiaro—named Car Designer of the Century in 1999—is no longer with the firm, Italdesign has not only kept its purpose-driven passion, but increased the intensity. Acclaimed for the automotive artistry it has produced for others in the industry, the Torino-based team has finally stepped in front of the creative curtain to reveal its own masterwork—the ZeroUno supercar.

“The only way to design a successful sports car is to use the form-follows-function approach,” says Filippo Perini, head of design for Italdesign and the man responsible for the look of the Lamborghini Aventador. “For the ZeroUno project, we communicated a design language that fits with our company’s DNA, and we employed a simultaneous engineering process.”

Where to Watch Mayweather vs. McGregor

Where to Watch Mayweather vs. McGregor

Floyd Mayweather versus Conor McGregor, the biggest fight you didn’t know you wanted until someone told you it could be a thing, is only days away. The once-retired Mayweather will take on the UFC’s biggest star, McGregor, in Las Vegas next Saturday, August 26, in a boxing match that is all but guaranteed to break the all-time record for pay-per-view buys. It’s definitely time to figure out where you’ll watch the bout.

The bad news is that pay-per-view will cost you $99.95. The good news is you don’t have to pay that crazy price to see the fight if you know where the nearest watch party is.

Ricky’s South Beach. New York-style pizza, South Beach, and TVs that measure 115 feet and 155 feet; that’s a pretty convincing argument for why this place is one of the choices on this list. As you can see in the picture above, Ricky’s is not your usual pizza parlor. Decorative interior and South Beach style vibes are abundant here. Guests who arrive to watch the fight will be treated to specials on Ricky’s new cocktails, such as the Walking Dead and Gin ‘n’ Juice. 8:30 p.m. Saturday, August 26, at Ricky’s South Beach, 1222 16th St., Miami Beach; 305-704-3602; rickysouthbeach.com. Admission is free.

Pagani’s Sky Ceiling for the Airbus ACJ319neo Jet

Pagani’s Sky Ceiling for the Airbus ACJ319neo Jet

Flying has become so routine that it’s easy to close the window shades and ignore the fact that you’re sailing through an infinite sky, but the new Infinito custom cabin design by Pagani, from Airbus Corporate Jets, aims to re-connect travelers to the elements. The “sky ceiling” brings a live view of the sky above the aircraft into the spacious cabin of the ACJ319neo, creating the illusion that you’re flying high above the world with the top down.

That illusion of natural space permeates the interior, with curving pathways through the cabin, and shell-shaped valances and partitions. The partitions can switch from opaque to transparent, or anywhere between, at the push of a button, providing infinite choices for privacy or interaction among the cabin areas. Natural soft-leather carpets and a wooden floor add to the serenity, while carbon-fiber construction in furnishings ensures durability. Separate spaces accommodate a cinema, dining area, and lounge.

The new ACJ319neo from Airbus can fly for up to 7,770 miles, or 15 hours, with eight passengers on board, reaching speeds up to Mach 0.82. The cabin, at 950 square feet, provides plenty of space to create separate areas for working, relaxing, and socializing. The ACJ319, with a standard VIP cabin, sells for $87 million, plus custom pricing for the Pagani design.

Benetti Launches 220-foot Superyacht

benetti

As its name suggests, Benetti’s new 220-foot superyacht Seasense was designed to maximize the connection with the sea. The yacht was launched last week from Benetti’s shipyard in Livorno, Italy. The owners have had multiple yachts, but this is their first Benetti. They also commissioned Dutch design firm Cor D. Rover to supersize the exterior spaces, while creating an integrated connection with the interior. One of the best examples of this is the stern area of the main deck. On most yachts, this is typically a limited entry to the saloon, often with just an outdoor dining table in a relatively confined cockpit space. On Seasense, there is an extended deck devoted to a swimming pool and sunning area. That, in turn, connects to the main saloon through sweeping glass doors that allow the outside in. Given its 35-foot beam, the area is like an expansive outdoor terrace.

The Best Ballpark Foods You Won’t Find in a Ballpark

cheese steak

Nearly a month into baseball season, and people everywhere are upping their intake of hot dogs, nachos and ice cream served in little helmets. Now, we’d never disparage such a grand pastime as eating ice cream in little helmets. But in the event that you’d like to enjoy some better-than-your-average ballpark foods in a different setting—say, in a bar or restaurant, with the game on TV—then you’re in luck.

No tickets required.

The standard: A cheesesteak.

The upgrade: This cheesesteak. It’s shaved ribeye, jalapeño jack whiz, provolone, peppers and onions on a sesame baguette. And all that’s topped with crispy onions for some extra panache. Halves & Wholes, Miami
