ORIGIN Constructed Mutation

FLAMA × Paris KManifesto

The Constructed Mutation collection explores the boundary between the familiar and the unconventional through the deconstruction and reconstruction of eyewear archetypes.

By breaking established forms down into their fundamental elements, the collection questions the usual relationship between structure, material and assembly. Familiar silhouettes become the starting point of a transformation: components are reconfigured, functions are left in plain view and new relationships emerge.

3D-printed titanium structures, translucent resin and exposed mechanical details form a visual language born of technical precision and material contrast. Rather than hiding the construction, each element becomes part of the expression and reveals the internal logic of the object.

The result is a series of frames that live between recognition and reinvention. Neither entirely familiar nor entirely foreign, each design retains traces of its origin as it evolves towards a new structural and aesthetic identity.

Constructed Mutation is an exploration of how eyewear can evolve without losing its connection to what it once was.

ORIGIN EDGE Constructed Mutation

ORIGIN

EDGE

EDGE takes apart a frame archetype and rebuilds it in 3D-printed titanium and translucent resin. The riveted hinges and the milled steel logo plate stay in plain sight: the construction is part of the design.

ORIGIN

How it’s built

Every ORIGIN starts from a familiar silhouette that is taken apart into independent pieces and built again. The construction is not hidden: it is part of the design.

  1. Titanium exoskeleton01

    Titanium exoskeleton

    The structure is 3D-printed in Ti-6Al-4V titanium. It joins the whole together and holds the lenses.

  2. Resin volumes02

    Resin volumes

    The translucent parts are 3D-printed in resin. They wrap around the metal and give the frame a soft feel.

  3. Independent pieces03

    Independent pieces

    The silhouette is broken down into front, inserts, temples and temple tips, each one its own piece.

  4. Exposed assembly04

    Exposed assembly

    It is assembled with standard 1.4 mm screws and riveted OBE safety hinges. Every piece is made to order, in 3 weeks.
