Just when you thought you’d be all set for the summer season, MYKITA releases a new collection of alluring yet indispensible trophies. In the eyewear brand’s sixth MYKITA Studio series, a line for high-fashion concepts, the sunglasses and optical frames evoke optical illusion art from the 1960s. Although a nod to the past, all models are actually inspired by latest advancements in surface treatment technology. A precision etching process enables the ultra-fine lines that follow the exact contour of the frame and create the 3D graphic pattern. Combining metallic tones with matt solid colours a psychedelic effect is emphasised. Shown here are three sunglass models that we particularly like. The new MYKITA Studio 6 sunglasses and frames are available at MYKITA stores and select depositories across the planet, including Mameg (Los Angeles), Totokaelo (New York), Reflect (Amsterdam), VooStore (Berlin), Restir (Tokyo) and Shifting Worlds (Melbourne).
Publishers Note
Just to be clear – superfuture® is a design blog and not a political commentator. No surprise there. The scope of our content has always been global and borderless, however that can often mean covering projects in countries where we will not agree with the politics or actions of those countries. In a world that’s as screwed up as ever right now, the focus of our support is to those designers, architects and other creatives who aim to make the world a more liveable one – as opposed to people that try their hardest to destroy it. So if a project hits our desk and we like it based on its design credentials, we may choose to publish regardless of its location or creators nationality. superfuture® has always been inclusive and hopes for all current wars, aggression, violence, hate and extremism to end.
