1957 Ferrari 625 TRC Spider


This two-of-a-kind classic Ferrari is lauded by historians as one of the prettiest Ferraris ever built.  The 1957 Ferrari 625 TRC Spider is an absolutely stunning automobile, one as dashing in the garage as it is at 120 mph.  Its sleek, curvy red body houses a 320hp V-12 engine that challenged the best German marques of its day, carrying the Ferrari name further into history.  Its race performance and engine capacity are noteworthy, but the visual beauty of this automobile is what captures our interest.  The shapely contours of this Ferrari are something rarely seen in automobiles today, a philosophy in design that is hopefully only dormant, not dead.  If you’d like a vehicle like this in your garage, you’ll want to head to Monaco on May 12th, as this 1957 Ferrari 625 TRC Spider will be available at auction for an expected sum of $4.8 million.

Dissecting Creativity with Pharrell Williams Part 1


As Pharrell Williams touched down in Hong Kong last week to attend Carrera Presents Liberatum Hong Kong International Festival of Culture, the multi-faceted creative had a chance to sit down with HBTV amidst the pre-opening for Galerie Emmanuel Perrotin Hong Kong to converse about his personal interest in art as well as his creative process. With a resume that spans a vast range of creative mediums from music, film scoring, industrial design, sound design, and fashion design, Pharrell is one of the few individuals who are able to balance a diversity of projects while seamlessly maintaining consistency in his own identity as each endeavor unfolds. In our first colloquial dialogue with Pharrell — of which there will be an eventual two parts — he touches on everything from art, managing projects, his thoughts on the difference of American and Asian cuisine as well as sharing memories from his past experiences with NIGO.

Abe Burmeister: How I Built A Fashion Brand with No Experience

In this talk from PSFK CONFERENCE NYC, Abe Burmeister explains how a punk-rock ethic helped him create a business building a new niche in a market he had no experience in. Abe just wanted a pair of pants he could both ride his bike and go to work in – and all his partner Tyler needed was a shirt that stayed fresh despite his pedal-powered commute. The Outlier co-founder describes how the duo paired intensive research in New York’s garment district with the connectivity of the web to create Outlier – a performance fashion business that only sells over the web.
