Halmo is an Italian company based just 100 kilometers from the main Ferrari headquarters in Maranello, it was founded by architect and yacht designer Gianluca Tramonti to create unique and oftentimes one-off automotive art focused on the true icons of both the race track and the street.
Unlike more common photographic prints or canvasses, Halmo creates gleaming almost three-dimensional pieces from modern Plexiglas – this ensures that they last almost forever and aren’t susceptible to water or humidity damage.
Each piece comes in your choice of two sizes, SL (90cm x 30cm) or SXL (140cm x 50cm), and it includes the required screws, wall plugs, and aluminum mounting hardware. Gianluca also takes special orders for specific cars, including your own car if you’d like to get a model made for it to hang in the garage.
Ben Branch has had his work featured on CNN, Popular Mechanics, the official Smithsonian Magazine, Road & Track Magazine, the official Pinterest blog, the official eBay Motors blog, BuzzFeed, and many more.
Silodrome was founded by Ben back in 2010, in the years since the site has grown to become a world leader in the alternative and vintage motoring sector, with millions of readers around the world and hundreds of thousands of followers on social media.

At first glance this 1958 Ice Speedster looks like a prop from one of the original Star Wars films. In fact I wouldn’t be at all surprised if George Lucas had encountered one and used it as a base for the X-34 Landspeeder driven by Luke Skywalker on Tattoine. Snow Planes Those of you from…
