The Printed Collection
March 2017

A collection of eyewear that tickles your alter ego. The Printed Collection comprises one basic frame and nine styles of clip-ons that are adaptable, serious and slightly playful. 

Frames of ʻThe Printed Collectionʼ are 3D printed from polyamide powder using a Selective Laser Sintering (SLS) machine. Traditionally, eyewear is made without the use of 3D modelling – 2D technical drawings are enough to specify the shapes and curves. This collection explores the creation of eyewear today, questioning ʻminimum order quantityʼ in mass production. Each frame is 3D modelled and printed upon demand allowing it to be tailored for a better fit across different face sizes.
