Inspired by the Philosophy of Frank Lloyd Wright: Italian Eyewear Makes Its Debut | OPHY
OPHY
The Fusion of Eyewear and the Wearer
OPHY, an eyewear brand born in Italy in 2018, elevates eyewear with an "architectural structure," interpreting futurism and modern art in its own unique way. The brand has now made its debut in Japan, with availability starting at BLINK GAIENMAE and BLINK BASE.

OPHY crafts eyewear with an architectural approach, projecting its aesthetic sensibility into every detail, from the cases to the graphics.
The theme of the new collection is "ORGANIC ARCHITECTURE." It draws inspiration from the "fusion of nature and architecture" by Frank Lloyd Wright, one of the three great masters of modern architecture. The frames are made of acetate, chosen for its deep luster and safety. By applying multifaceted cuts to this material, the brand constructs a beautiful form.
Furthermore, the transparent color palette evokes the brand's underlying futurism. Though the frames may initially appear bold, they surprisingly fit both visually and physically when worn. All items are made in Italy.
Just as Frank Lloyd Wright aimed for harmony between architecture and its surroundings, these glasses become companions that coexist with the wearer.
