Cow-Borghini. The idea of the design is to convey the cool, clean, slick vibe of what Lamborghini is all about. The eyes have the outline of the Lamborghini logo with mixed in faces, elements of the car, and the image of a driver, his hair blowing in the wind as a sails down winding roads feeling free and alive.
