# Designers take eyewear styles to the next level with Visages 3D printing

Go into any eyewear shop and you’ll be greeted with a plethora of choices, from round rimless glasses, to cat-eye frames, to the classic browline style. Despite the choice, many of these styles have been around for a long time and have become not only standardized but ubiquitous. [Visages](https://www.voxelmatters.directory/company/visages/), a software company specializing in eyewear production, is hoping to change that by introducing boundless creativity into the [eyewear sector with 3D printing](https://www.voxelmatters.com/category/3d-printed-consumer-products/3d-printed-eyewear/). 

The French startup, founded in 2024, works with designers to bring their innovative frames to life through a combination of AI-powered customization tools and on-demand 3D printing. In the last few months alone, Visages has supported the launch of eight eyewear collections, each made by a different designer. 

This variety and scope would not be possible using conventional frame production methods, or would at best be prohibitively expensive. As Visages writes, “We’re building the tools and infrastructure that allow creators, from brands to independent designers, to launch eyewear collections with no upfront cost, no inventory, and full control over production and distribution…By leveraging today’s technological and industrial revolutions, Visages offers a scalable, creator-first alternative to a slow, monopolized industry.”

Without further ado, let’s take a look at its collections of 2026 (so far).

The first eyewear product, “Sasha”, was [designed by French model and influencer Clara Berry](https://www.voxelmatters.com/clara-berry-launches-her-first-3d-printed-eyewear-collection-with-visages/) in collaboration with Visages. The frames draw inspiration from 1980s sportswear styles and are distinguished not only by their aerodynamic silhouette but also a detachable hair pin that rests on the arm. 

Visages also supported the “Liqui.iD” collection by digital artist and hybrid creator ines alpha. Known for her 3D makeup that combines traditional makeup with digital 3D effects, ines alpha teamed up with Visages to 3D print a one-of-a-kind frame evocative of split or splashing liquid. As [she writes](https://www.instagram.com/p/DWEzAYrCPCF/?img_index=4) on social media about the 3D printed frames: “My forever obsession with aquatic creatures and liquid shapes floating without gravity takes shape in the physical world.”

Multi-disciplinary artist Jacob Cosquer brought his eyewear frames, called “Current”, to life using Visages’ platform. His frames take their design inspiration from water currents as well as the designer’s own face structure. Like all Visages-powered frames, the eyewear is 3D printed in France on a made-to-order basis.

Ibai Fletas, an industrial design engineer, has opted for underwater-themed frames with his “Octopus” sunglasses. While the aforementioned frames really play with shape and structure, these are more concerned with texture, resulting in glasses that look like an octopus tentacle is wrapping itself around your eyes. Available in various colorways, these frames embody Fletas’ mission to explore “how technology can extend craft rather than replace it.”

Product designer Kledis Mai’s “Titans” sunglasses also draw their inspiration from an aquatic theme, specifically the manta ray. The frames themselves reinterpret the shape of a manta ray into a subtle yet unique structure, while the arms feature a bold, almost scale-like pattern. As Mai says: “My work translates natural structures and movement into a futuristic urban look. Driven by curiosity, I bridge the surrounding world into technological and material thinking to create forward-looking, performance-oriented products.”

Ryleys Studio’s “Anatomy” frames are structurally bold, taking design cues from the natural world and organic forms. The brand, led by footwear designer Ryley Ireland, takes advantage of 3D printing’s limitless design possibilities to create a dynamic frame that not only frames but also encompasses part of the lenses.

French design duo Omura has created “VENOSIS”, a sunglasses collection with an almost insect-like feel. The 3D printed frames have a fluid and organic shape that tapers to a point at the temples. “With an independent and accessible approach, [Omura’ s] aim is to create objects that feel unique and authentic,” Visages writes.

Last but not least is “LigerVisionHero” by design label PET LIGER. The playful sunglasses, available in red, champagne, or black, feature a thick rectangular frame, cat-eye-shaped lenses, and a little cat ear feature on the brow. (The brand also has a version without the cat ears, LigerVision). “This collection merges worldbuilding, fashion, and play into a new era of PET LIGER expression,” the brand states.

While each eyewear design is unique and distinctive, they do all bear some similarities. In addition to being developed in collaboration with Visages, all the frames are 3D printed on a made-to-order basis, made in France. Most, if not all, of the frames are printed from a bio-based, fully recyclable plastic.
