    The Grand and Masterful Craftsmanship of Rolls-Royce

    In the 64 squares of a chessboard there lies a microcosm of the most eternal game we have – war.

    Rolls-Royce Cullinan — Series II

    More so than ever, it really is impossible to please everyone. The acceleration of information accumulation—and dissemination—has meant that most people know a very little about a lot, rather than a lot about relatively little. With this comes an illusion of expertise and a growth in niche interests, options, choices and tastes. While there are…

  • Phantom Scintilla: A Muse Reborn

    Phantom Scintilla: A Muse Reborn

    Often we never really understand the true resonance and impact of the decisions we make until we have a great enough scope to review them in posterity. This could be said for sculptor Charles Sykes’ decision to employ Eleanor Thorton, Lord Montagu’s secretary, paramour and alleged muse for the now world-famous Spirit of Ecstasy. In…

  • The Naran Hyper–Coupé

    The Naran Hyper–Coupé

    Over the past few years, we’ve seen a host of new automotive brands birthed, each leveraging the democratisation of creation given by ready-made electric powertrains. This alternative path to automotive creation is no less noble than traditional methods, but focuses more on features and design aspects, the drive itself largely taken care of by the…

    Rolls-Royce Cars celebrate London Craft Week

    It seems that we are entering an age where the excitement of harnessing digital technology to create is at an all time high. The triumvirate of AI, faster processing times and near instant data-transfer have led to an abundance of abstract “creative” use cases being proposed; speed has begun to supersede quality. That’s why on…

  • Folgore by Maserati

    Folgore by Maserati

    For many the arrival of electrification was initially seen as a potential recession into the soulless age of automotive. However time is a healer, and as innovation ramps up and performance improves, we’re seeing an increasing fondness and—dare I say it—excitement for what the future holds. To none more does this apply than to the…

  • A Ghost in Provence

    A Ghost in Provence

    Art and artistry while essentially hailing from the same family are not quite the same. One focuses on the mastery of the outcome, the other, on the mastery of process. In a recent visit to the South of France I was blessed to witness both, as I headed to the idyllic location of Château La…

  • Spectre — Reassuringly Rolls-Royce

    Spectre — Reassuringly Rolls-Royce

    It may feel like a rare occurrence in these modern times, but there are still things in this world that actually make sense. Take Rolls-Royce opting to use an electric powertrain for instance; it makes complete sense. Historically their cars are named after spirits, among many reasons due to the quietness of cabin and lack…

  • AEHRA Sedan — A new Italian Profile

    AEHRA Sedan — A new Italian Profile

    If I’m being totally honest, the perfect car does not exist. We’ve tried for decades to create a universally loved car, one that will meet everyone’s needs—aesthetic and performance alike—but in more recent times, the environment has (finally) got a seat in the consideration conversation. Change is never easy, and to say it’s been a…

  • Wiesmann — Project Thunderball

    Wiesmann — Project Thunderball

    The race to electrify has intensified as the hard deadline of 2030 swiftly nears on the horizon – and I have to say I’m slowly warming to the idea. It’s not that there is anything wrong with electric cars, rather that green credentials aside, there’s not much to look forward to from a purely driving…

  • Maserati x St. Moritz — Dancing on Ice

    Maserati x St. Moritz — Dancing on Ice

    I’m not often in Switzerland, often travelling through rather than to it, but from those brief experiences, I already knew that I would love it here. I had landed in Zurich, awaiting my mode of transport to my next destination. The vehicle? A Maserati Grecale Trofeo, a cool younger brother to the Maserati Levante, with…

  • Rolls-Royce Syntopia — Textile Ambition

    Rolls-Royce Syntopia — Textile Ambition

    The idea of a bespoke Rolls-Royce will not immediately come across as revolutionary… because every Rolls-Royce in its essence is bespoke. The plethora of options, finishes — and now even models — means that trying to replicate another Rolls-Royce in its entirety would be a near impossible task. Your choice of thread on the indicator…
