STYLISH LOOK WITH 3D SIDE SHIELDS

3D printing is a cutting-edge technology that is making its way into the eyewear industry. Although adoption is still in the early stages, many opticians and consumers are becoming familiar with the concept of 3D-printed frames. Ørgreen, a leading eyewear brand based in Copenhagen, has been at the forefront of combining 3D printing and titanium to create innovative and stylish designs. The company's dedication has resulted in the creation of the screw-less Quantum High collection, which features 3D-printed fronts and titanium temples, providing the perfect balance of lightness and durability. Additionally, the color combinations of the front, temples, and end tips add an aesthetic appeal in the best Ørgreen color tradition.

Ørgreen's latest innovation is the integration of a 3D ring within the rim of the eyeglass frame, adding a unique aesthetic element with beautiful color detailing from the front and a dynamic visual experience as the frame is turned. A side shield also manifests, adding depth and dimension to the frame, showcasing the full potential of 3D printing technology in eyewear design, as seen in the Aries, Leo Minor and Ursa Major models.

At Ørgreen, this integration is referred to as "functional aesthetic" as it adds both visual appeal and functional benefits. Opticians have in fact found that this allows them to provide their clients with larger lenses in smaller, more slender frames, a sleek and stylish look without the bulk of thick lenses. The side shield is now also featured in the Quantum High collection, as seen in Backspacer, allowing for the same dynamic visual experience and functional aesthetic.
