The first sketch of the Pininfarina Sintesi, the four-door coupe vehicle that will be unveiled at Geneva and will combine features from the latest concept cars by the Italian designer, the Birdcage 75th and the Nido.

Announced back in December 2007, Sintesi is defined by Pininfarina as a the natural heir to the Birdcage 75th and the Nido.

The name "Sintesi" communicates the general guidelines of the project, aimed at combining form and function, sportiness and functionality.

The design team led by Design Director Lowie Vermeersch includes vice directors Guglielmo Cartia and Fabrizio Valentini and chief designers Jason Castriota, Giovanni Piccardo, Goran Popovic and Giuseppe Randazzo.

The first image shows a sleek four-door coupe with an exterior design language defined by an interplay of convex and concave shapes.

In the next 5 weeks, prior to the official debut at the Geneva Motor Show, further details will be revealed on the official microsite dedicated to the Sintesi project.
