Ørgreen is never far behind on the fashion curve, but most recently, the company has decided to look backward and inward for their innovative efforts. Resulting in a finished look almost pulled from a 1960’s mod magazine, their sunglasses are at once bold and enigmatic, too clean and original to have been inspired and too brash and high-fashion to have been created in any other generation.
From the squared off Mies to the rounded Eero, their handmade frames are fashioned from titanium, making them as durable as they are attractive. They serve as the wave of the future carrying the weight of the past until they are marbled, mottled, and one.
Borne of a love of two minimalist architects, the pieces perfectly encapsulate their work, rooting individualism and personality in the idea that simple constructs and clean lines are all you need to curate a beautiful design. There is a fun, frivolity, and optimism; a call to embrace life with a subtle and subdued illumination. It is reminiscent of all that is antiquated, yet somehow wisely foreshadowing all that is to come, as the structure of life mimics that of art. Endlessly enchanting, these timeless frames will take you to the future by way of the past.
