YOUTHIS / Studio notes

Form, before
everything.

YOUTHIS explores eyewear through contour, surface and the way an object changes when it is worn. This is an open record of a design in development.

Overhead study of Object 001 revision 02

Object 001 / Continuous contour / Revision 02

A language of form

The crown

A lowered wave gives the upper edge a more deliberate rhythm. The saddle joins the two lenses as one surface.

The section

A softly squared cross-section makes the front surface more legible while keeping the visible edges rounded.

The return

A shallow concavity follows each temple and fades before the ear tip. It is a quiet detail discovered from the side.

Color, material & finish studies

Same form.
Different presence.

One geometry, one camera, one neutral lighting setup. These are digital finishing proposals. Final selection follows feedback and physical sampling.

A work in progress

From study
to object.

The first model reconstructed a supplied visual reference. Revision 02 develops the crown, section and temple surface into a more deliberate design direction.

The next physical questions concern the bridge contact, weight, lens seat and hinge. These will be answered through technical development and samples.

Companion object / exterior study

A place
for the object.

A soft rectangular volume and a quiet lid line. An early case study, to be developed around the final folded frame.

Exterior concept only. Internal protection, closure and fit have not been engineered.
