This design team has knocked predictability out of the window. Imagine rich colors, texture and shape put together in a way that no two eyewear designs look alike. Impossible for most, but this French collection delivers humor and design in the most playful collection that we've come to love.

French architect Alyson Magee never trusted in the fleetingness of fashions but in a superior concept of design. Originality and creative details lead her to experiment with new ideas for this collection. Sophisticated contemporary designs manufactured at the foot of the French Alps combine textured laminates. This collection truly has a strong emphasis on design and sometimes showcases frames resembling the details for construction found on a building's blueprint.

Face à Face's innovative eyewear is designed for active urban consumers who consider their frames to be an important part of their look and creative personality.  Unique color pairings combined with award winning designs give every Face à Face's frame a distinctive style that merges seduction and modernity.

In German-based HOFFMAN NATURAL EYEWEAR, featuring Swisshorn, luxury and exclusivity is epitomized. This signature Horn collection are constructed and carved from found horns of Asian water buffalo - which shed their horns naturally. Beautifully structured colors which harmonize with each other are characteristic for a natural horn frame. Each one is a little bit different as nature ensures that each horn is unique, too. As is clothing in natural materials, natural horn frames are very light and suitable for allergy sufferers. This environmentally friendly manufacturing process goes one step further as all excess shavings and waste from production are used as a natural plant fertilizer. To personalize these one of a kind creations, Urban Optiks offers its clients the opportunity to have their names engraved into the temples of custom orders.

Inspired by a more romantic age and reminiscent of fine vintage jewelry, this technical breakthrough has become known as the original necklace for eyewear. LA LOOP, initially known for its patented loop and hinge which pivots and moves with the body allowing the eyewear to hang in place, today the array of finishes and designs is exploding. Fine silk cords, classic leather finishes, precious stones and minerals, diverse metals and woods, sporty neon colors and silver or gold loops create pieces of jewelry with function--but beautiful enough to be worn as an adornment alone.
