Kartal Auto recently completed a prestigious interior design project for the Lamborghini Islero in Dubai, offering a fresh, luxurious, and modern touch to this classic masterpiece. The Lamborghini Islero, known for its sleek design and performance, deserved an interior upgrade that preserved its vintage appeal while incorporating contemporary elements for enhanced comfort and style. Our expert interior design services ensure that every detail is perfectly executed, creating a driving experience that is as refined as the car itself. Below, we highlight the key challenges encountered and the expert solutions we provided during the interior design process for the Lamborghini Islero.
Key Issues Found and Solutions:
- Aging and Outdated Interior Aesthetic
Over time, the interior of the Lamborghini Islero had lost some of its original appeal. The materials and design, although iconic in their day, were showing signs of aging. The seats, dashboard, and door panels needed a modern touch while maintaining the classic Lamborghini charm.
Solution:
We worked closely with the client to redesign the interior, integrating high-end materials such as premium leather, Alcantara, and custom stitching. We restored the car’s vintage character while updating it with modern elements that enhanced comfort, luxury, and durability. A modernized dashboard with updated controls, elegant trims, and a sleek center console design ensured that the interior was both timeless and functional. - Discomfort and Lack of Ergonomics
While the Lamborghini Islero is known for its performance, its interior lacked some of the modern ergonomic features that ensure comfort during long drives. The seating and overall layout were not as supportive or user-friendly as newer Lamborghini models.
Solution:
We re-engineered the seats to improve their comfort and support, incorporating custom foam padding and offering better lumbar support for an improved driving experience. The seating position was adjusted to enhance visibility and ease of use. We also ensured that all controls were ergonomically placed, making the interior more intuitive and comfortable for the driver and passengers. - Dated Technology and Instrumentation
The original Lamborghini Islero interior had basic instrumentation and technology that was not in line with current standards. While the vintage gauges were charming, they lacked the precision and functionality that today’s drivers expect.
Solution:
We modernized the dashboard with a mix of vintage-inspired analog gauges and subtle digital displays, creating a seamless blend of classic style and modern technology. The updated infotainment system was carefully integrated, providing features like navigation, Bluetooth, and a premium sound system while maintaining the classic aesthetic. This upgrade balanced the Islero’s vintage feel with the luxury of today’s technology. - Wear and Tear on Original Materials
The materials in the Lamborghini Islero, such as leather and wood trims, had experienced natural wear and tear over the years. Cracks in the wood panels and worn leather were evident in various areas, diminishing the overall luxury of the interior.
Solution:
We restored and replaced the damaged materials with premium alternatives, such as hand-stitched leather for the seats, door panels, and dashboard. The wood trim was refinished to restore its original shine, and high-quality carbon fiber accents were added to give the interior a fresh, modern look. Every detail was carefully chosen to maintain the vehicle’s sophistication while enhancing its elegance with modern materials. - Insufficient Lighting and Ambiance
The Lamborghini Islero’s interior lacked sufficient ambient lighting, which is essential for creating a refined and welcoming atmosphere, especially during evening drives.
Solution:
We installed custom ambient LED lighting throughout the cabin, adding an elegant glow to key areas such as the footwells, center console, and door panels. The lighting was designed to be subtle, with adjustable brightness levels to match the mood of the driver. This upgrade created a luxurious, atmospheric interior that enhanced both the visual appeal and overall driving experience of the Lamborghini Islero.
