The Creative Drive: Brett King’s Canvas Project art racing helmet

In this episode of The Creative Drive with Taro Koki, renowned helmet designer Brett King from Brett King Design reveals the inspiration, process, and philosophy behind the Canvas Project – a groundbreaking approach to helmet art where, for the first time, there's no input from a client. Just pure artistic vision.

The Canvas Project 001 is not a commission. It's an art project done on a helmet as the canvas.

We dig into the design, the business, the challenges of working with clients, and how collaborations in motorsport gear are evolving – with appearances from Preston Folkestad of Simpson Performance Products.
