There are few objects more striking than cars, right? In general, cars exist at the forefront of design and technology, combining science and beauty in perfect, harmonious, equal measure. That, naturally, puts them high on the list of inspirations for designers of all kinds.

From contemporary art pieces to top-of-the-range razors, the ever-growing list of automotive crossovers has been looking very strong lately. So strong that we decided to put together a list of our favorite automotive translations of recent times.

The collaboration between Bugatti and GilletteLabs is one of the more intriguing crossovers. GilletteLabs, the experimental arm of the men’s grooming titan, brought the professional wet-shave experience into our homes with the GilletteLabs Heated Razor. Now, with the help of iconic motoring company Bugatti, the Heated Razor has been given a special-edition makeover with Bugatti’s two-tone design to boot.

Elsewhere, collaborations between Carhartt and L’art de L’automobile, KITH and BMW, and Aimé Leon Dore and Porsche bring automotive and fashion together in perfect fall-ready style.

Shaving became quite a different experience when GilletteLabs released the Heated Razor. A warming bar below the blades gives the feeling of a hot-towel shave from the comfort of your own bathroom. Now made in collaboration with Bugatti, the Heated Razor becomes a veritable piece of art. Not many can say they've got a Bugatti in the bathroom — you can.
