By focusing on minimalizing waste and leveraging science and high-tech materials, Philippe Starck designed an exclusive eyewear collection attuned to the human body.

The STARCK BIOTECH PARIS FALL/WINTER 2021 collection embodies elegance and intelligence, presenting the forged carbon collection made of fiber models and bio-acetate frames for the first time.

Forged carbon is a lightweight, yet highly resistant material that offers high performance and a minimal and modern aesthetic. Due to its technical qualities, it is traditionally used in high-tech sectors such as the automotive, sports and aeronautics industry.

Bio-based materials also enter the brand’s new collection. The use of Mazzucchelli bio-acetate, 67% of which comes from renewable resources, with minimal environmental impact, vividly demonstrates how Philippe Starck’s creations envision a future of sustainable design that perfectly combines intelligence and harmony with nature.

At the core of the bio-based and forged carbon styles is the exclusive Biolink technology inspired by the human collarbone that gives multi-directional movement, offering maximum comfort and flexibility.
