ROLLS-ROYCE VESPYRE SOLEIL

A seasonal companion to the Vespyre, the Soleil reimagines grand touring through the ease and sociability of summer driving.

The doors are removed entirely. Woven rattan, pale textiles and polished chrome replace the formality of a traditional Rolls-Royce cabin, recalling the bespoke beach cars once commissioned for the Riviera and Palm Beach.

Part grand tourer, part seaside retreat—the Soleil is less about arriving than the pleasure of getting there.
Summer driving, reimagined.

BOOK TOUR 01
In an increasingly digital world, books remain one of the most tactile and rewarding ways to explore an idea. They invite us to slow down, study, and notice the details that are often lost on a screen.

BOOK TOUR is a look inside the volumes that have shaped the way I think as a designer.
Every project has a beginning. For me, it often starts with a book.

This 1982 volume by Hugh Conway and Jacques Greilsamer became one of the foundations for years of research into the Bugatti Type 41 Royale. More than a history of the marque, it offered a window into Ettore Bugatti’s philosophy of design, engineering, craftsmanship, and uncompromising ambition.
The resulting project wasn’t born from nostalgia—it grew from understanding.

Swipe through a few of the pages that helped shape the journey.

What book has most influenced the way you think?

The mythical Royale ❤️ - Repost from

A once in a lifetime experience 🙌🏻

The Bugatti Royale Coupé Napoleon - the private car of Ettore Bugatti himself.

No words could describe the joy of seeing the Mona Lisa of the automotive world with my own eyes and even more… sit in it for a short drive.

Thank you & 🙏🏻🙏🏻

A new expression of grand touring begins to emerge through the snow.

The Bugatti Royale undergoes cold-weather testing — balancing presence, silence, and immense power beneath its camouflage.

Not everything hidden is meant to disappear.

Time, made visible.

In the Vespyre, the dashboard clock becomes a focal point—deliberately oversized, quietly assertive. A round form set against an otherwise linear architecture, it introduces a moment of pause within the forward motion of the interior.

Its design draws from Art Deco styled mantel clocks—objects of presence, not just function—while nodding to the more utilitarian instrument gauges once produced by Jaeger, as well as referencing the car’s cast aluminum wheels. The clock’s scale creates a kind of rhythm with other circular elements in the cabin.

Four exposed screws secure the face beneath a glass dome. Honest, mechanical, intentional. Nothing hidden, nothing excessive.

Symbolically, it’s a reminder: in a world built for speed, luxury is the ability to notice time passing—and to enjoy it.
