The latest offering from AM Eyewear was conceived among the idyllic settings of the Croatian coastline by founder Simon Ponnusamy. Designing from a cabana on the beach, Ponnusamy drew inspiration from young couples, who spent the week relaxing and honeymooning in the cabanas next to him.
Subtle textures within the acetate of each frame are inspired by the effects of wind rippling over water, textures of draped white linen over raw wood and reflections of pool tiles capturing splashes of colour from passersby. The sky at various times of the day forms the basis for SS15’s colour palette, referencing pink and purple hues of early morning through to a fiery sunset in the evening and ending with stars strewn across a dark night. Because they’re handcrafted every frame is unique with subtle differences in pattern and colour.
AM Eyewear frames are fitted with Carl Zeiss Vision Sunlenses.
