The Anne et Valentin designers wanted to pay a discreet tribute to ’60s design, to Sottsass, to the Memphis movement. Here is a direct, elementary concept, in acetate, with cut-outs on the contours and on the bases of the temples. Line is emphasized, shape highlighted. The geometric result and the frame designs are reinforced.
