In a distinctive collaboration with the Barcelona-based brand KALEOS, we applied our design philosophy into eyewear. Our approach involved a simplification of the frame’s geometry to pursue a platonic archetype for eyewear.
This partnership with KALEOS represents the union of two different visions, blending precise geometry and craftsmanship. The design of the glasses followed the design philosophy we typically apply to the buildings we work on. Although we had prior experience working on the design of small-scale artifacts, it was the first time we dealt with the creation of an element where the relationship with the human body would be so direct. The selection of material, considering aspects such as their weight or hypoallergenic character, and the formal investigation needed to achieve an ergonomic product, were the principal aspects we had to face during the design process.
