MYKITA LITE Steel

MYKITA LITE Acetate

MYKITA takes an independent approach to eyewear design and production, bringing together all departments under one roof to form the modern manufactory. At the MYKITA HAUS in Berlin, the team guides the product through every stage, from conception to the shop floor.

COLLECTIONS

MYKITA

Fashioned from stainless steel sheets, the frames are made into a three-dimensional structure through a series of bending and folding steps, similar to the Japanese art of origami.

LITE Acetates combine the traditional MYKITA steel with acetate frame fronts.

The modern principle behind the openly displayed spiral hinge represents the design approach that has informed all subsequent MYKITA collections: the technical solution must also be an aesthetic one.

MYKITA + MAISON MARGIELA

RAW // CRAFT
"Meeting a new, dynamic partner with so much savoir-faire is always such a breath of fresh air. Maison Margiela’s eyewear collections have grown since their first glasses back in 2009; now seems the right time for Margiela to take the next step by creating an even more distinctive and complete optical range. Edgy, talented and creative, MYKITA’s DNA so perfectly aligns with the Maison’s philosophy."

MYKITA is a modern manufactory that combines precision craftsmanship with new technologies. A constant search for innovation, the visionary use of materials and a wealth of experience in eyewear design are the defining elements behind MYKITA’s collections. A key factor in the company’s success is its holistic business philosophy, which brings together expertise from all disciplines under a single roof, the MYKITA HAUS.
