A series of concepts developed for a commissioned proposal for an international art and design project in Paris.

The brief explored the idea of making the impossible possible through creativity, with a focus on offering a fresh perspective on iconic eyewear.

I developed several concepts that approached the glasses as more than a functional object — exploring their relationship to jewellery, ornamentation, identity and personal expression.

The proposal was ultimately not selected for production, but the project provided an opportunity to develop a number of ideas around the transformation of eyewear into a sculptural and expressive object.

The Aviator 3000 reflects on an jet-pilots requirements for modern flights.

Each lens is replacaple with different abilities to make the best conditions for you aquired flight.

Clean lines meet a fearless spirit, capturing the ability to look elegant and a contemporary expression during use.

Build your own desired eyeglass function, where there is a wide variety of combinations.

A reinterpretation of the classic aviator frame, inspired by the pilot, who layers multiple pairs of glasses while flying the aircraft.

What began as a practical observation became the starting point for a new visual language, where layered optics are transformed into an intentional design.
