The Italian optical retailer was the winner of the brand’s window display contest – the prize was to develop a unique collaboration frame with the Barcelona brand
Italian independent optician, Ottica Rizzato has presented its unique frame, created in a collaboration between Gabriele Cavedon, owner of Ottica Rizzato, and Claudia Brotons, Kaleos’ Creative Director – and designed in Barcelona. Produced in a limited run of just 10 pieces, the frame blends a classic, unisex shape with unique details. A bold colour scheme is inspired by trencadis – the vibrant mosaic technique found in many of Antoni Gaudi’s works in Barcelona.

The frame is designed to reference the spirit of Barcelona, echoed in the luminous shades and irridescent reflections of the sunglasses. Designed as collectibles, each piece comes with a custom case and an exclusive mini guide to Barcelona, which highlights the places which were central to the development of the KALEOS x Ottica Rizzato concept frame.
