In the highest echelons of luxury, possession alone is not sufficient. Consider it an affliction of the affluent, who wield the power to purchase just about anything at whim. Therefore, the epitome of acquisition lies in the bespoke reserve.
Now they say every Rolls-Royce is a unique work of art, with the seemingly endless array of personalisation options the British marque avails its discerning clientele. But for those seeking to garnish their life's success with the ultimate expression of automotive art, there are the Rolls-Royce Privates Offices.
The latest such Private Office opened its doors last November in Seoul, the fourth after Dubai, Shanghai, and New York since 2022. Reflecting a global trend in which the luxury experience is increasingly defined by personal meaning, its opening follows "significant demand for ambitious and exceptional bespoke commissions", Rolls-Royce CEO Chris Brownridge notes.
Located within the Lotte World Tower in Seoul's vibrant Jamsil district, the by-appointment-only studio will serve clients in the Asia Pacific region as they journey through the creative process of working hand-in-hand with a dedicated bespoke designer from Rolls-Royce's home of Goodwood to bring their personallymeaningful commissions to life.
