03The commission

Eighteen months.Six stages.One car.

A commission is not a configurator. It is a long conversation, recorded in aluminium.

01Stage

The conversation

We begin without drawings. A day together to understand how the car will be used, where it will be driven, and what it must never be.

02Stage

Full-scale drawing

The silhouette is drawn by hand at one-to-one on the studio wall, then refined over six weeks until nothing is left to remove.

Chassis and drivetrain

Bare metal, seam-welded and jigged. The powertrain is assembled and bench-run before it ever meets the body.

Coachwork

Panels are wheeled and planished over a wooden buck. No panel is signed off until it reads correctly under a single moving light.

Trim and finish

One hide selection, one thread, one veneer. Fourteen coats of paint, flatted back by hand between each.

Handover

Three thousand kilometres of testing, then delivery in person — wherever the car is going to live.

The timeline

If the timeline sounds long, it is because it is. We have never shortened it for a client, and no client has ever asked twice.
