The designer Meiji Hasui has developed his latest eyewear collection as a new interpretation of an earlier range – STK is based on a concept which explores geometry
Padma Image has launched a new eyewear collection this October, with styles that feature a minimal symmetrical silhouette, resulting from a study of geometric design work. The frames bring a new look to the eyewear brand, which has previously also showcased a selection of intriguing asymmetrical concepts – highlighted on Eyestylist in recent years – https://www.eyestylist.com/2019/12/ue-shita-by-padma-image/
In this new series, the designer returns to his early work and a minimal concept with particular design details including a striking flattened top line. Above: the frames in the STK collection reexplore some of the first frames in the collection produced in 2011, entitled STICK. The geometric shapes feature distinctive lens shapes
Padma Image was first created in 2011 by Meiji Hasui with a particular philosophy based on “the pursuit of sensation”. Hasui grew up in the scenic environment of Shikoku Island in Japan, and originally trained as an engineer. His frame designs are derived from and inspired by nature and natural shapes. He is interested in creating graceful lines which blend into the individual’s expression when worn, produce a pleasant and especially flattering result.
Hasui has developed his company, Padd design LLC in recent years to offer three different unique collections: Padma Image, the original line, N PRODUCT with frames in buffalo horn, and tico chouette, a collection designed with a contemporary edge for small faces.
