The chromed out texture of Zhou's helmet's design is inspired by 螺钿(Luo-dian), a type of traditional Chinese craft made by inserting nacre or mother of perl into a carved surface of lacquer (usually black). Definitely one of most creative and well designed integration of a driver's own culture into helmet design, it makes so much sense with his template

I got choked up when you showed Lando's tribute helmet. It was perfect - simple, clean, and by copying the design of de Ferran, it completed its "mission". I'm sure that for those of us old enough to have watched that gent race, it brought back some awesome memories. I'm not normally into livery and helmet designs, though it helps when the drivers more or less stick to one throughout their career - like Graham and Damon Hill's London Rowing Club one. It helps me spot them on a smaller screen. I must admit that I have a particular taste for "minimalist" decoration, regardless of what it's on, so any "fussy" designs are automatically on the clanger list. But to surprise myself, because I hate neon green (and lime), of the "regular" helmets, Valtteri's is one of my faves. I think you were right saying that the slightly swirly green on black represents the northern lights, and I know that the star cluster is a constellation, probably one permanently in the north (which of course I can't remember right now!). My assumption is that it's all in reference to Finland (probably bloody obviously!?). The green is just that bit less intrusive than the green on the car, which makes it easier to like. Though I do like some others, this one _not_ being full of smaller images and lots of writing, just sets it off a treat.
