EYEWEAR DESIGN WITH HIS NEW COLLECTIon
THE SIRE exclusive@AndréOpticas
It was from the 13th century on that Sire was used as a title to address someone of high regard. And as such, a Sire had the ambition to only wear what was of refined quality and unique appearance, whereat he would always find it made by the hands of the best craftsmen.
At SIRE we aim to pursue those traditions and cater to them with craftsmanship, sharp designs, and fine materials – to be worn by Noblemen and Gentlewomen.
CRAFTING
Designing the eyewear, aekae builds on the tradition of using natural horn as a working material for premium objects. The spectacles’ open part just above the nose has made for a capturing feature ever since the first pieces.
By bringing together their respective skills and impressions, aekae and Swisshorn create something truly noble and unique.
Swisshorn hand selects every single piece of horn used in manufacturing SIRE spectacles. Because it is a natural material, each piece of horn differs in color and pattern – and therefore makes every frame a one of a kind.

Mylon by Mykita – Step by Step
Mykita Mylon 2012 disponível na André Opticas
O Mylon já não é novidade nenhuma…neste último ano a Mykita lançou uma série de colaborações – Rad Hourani, Bernhard Willhelm, Romain Kremer – neste material/conceito que é “basicamente” um processo de impressão 3D para óculos. Através de um pó “especial” que é depositado numa cuba em vácuo, o laser, queima as camadas de interesse e, através de uma selecção inteligente esculpe as várias peças. O processo, sinterização, é altamente inovador e o resultado final é um peça de eyewear, de alta qualidade, resistente aos impactos e ultra-leve.
Em Paris a colecção foi exposta num stand privado… By invitations only:) Na nova colecção podem encontrar a nova máscara de ski, Nova na cor Sunchine, o Icco em peat e o Crison na cor pitch. Eu experimentei-os e acreditem que são provavelmente os mais confortáveis óculos de sempre.
