The 4th collection of "YUICHI TOYAMA: 5".
The signature of the collection is the hinge screw with a hexagonal head that prevents the threads from collapse, and lightweight titanium nose pads with fine lines to improve wearability, making functional beauty aesthetics. This work was pursued.
With the theme of SURFACE, the "surface" is a flat blow line that reminds you of the surface of a lake, and the tube-like rounded under rims, with three-dimensional cutting with different silhouettes when viewed at different angles. That's the charm.
The metal parts on the front are also set deeper than the previous cell model, allowing the tip of the gaze to move towards the surface, bringing out the silhouette.
In order to achieve the ultimate wearability, all parts that make up the frame use original designs.
-The hinge screws are designed with a hollow structure inspired by eyelets, and combine beauty and durability as a part (passing 20,000 opening and closing tests).
The shape that fits easily in your hand also gives it a strong presence as an icon.
- A plate-cut front made from beta titanium plate material pressed and cut.
In addition to the usual pressing process, the bridge, which is integrated with the rim, is expressed in three dimensions by applying a 250 ton high-pressure press three times.
It combines the strength of the front with the ultimate thinness.
- Titanium pads designed with the hollow structure of hinge screws.
Eliminates pad screws and pursues lightness. The minimal mounting structure and anti-slip streaks provide excellent wearability.
- Temples made of beta titanium material pressed and cut on both sides of the front and back.
The beautiful and delicate streaks from all angles and the three-dimensional intonation on the back make it springy to the touch that is also effective.
