They’ve utilised steel. They’ve utilised acetate. Now the next frontier. ic! berlin has launched plotic – 3D printed eyewear by Selective Laser Sintering.

plotic makes the impossible possible and paves the way for new designs and shapes which until now have been unthinkable using traditional manufacturing techniques. After several years of research and development, ic! berlin will launch plotic and plotic-hybrid eyewear for Opti 2015.

It’s a process that needs to be seen to be believed. Layer by tiny layer a frame grows as finely tuned lasers fuse together powder particles to create eyewear that is lighter, stronger, more flexible and more environmentally friendly than traditional materials. plotic allows total freedom in design and texture like never before.
