Description

In 1985, Danish optician Poul-Jorn Lindberg embarked on a collaboration with architect Hans Dissing to create a revolutionary modular eyewear concept with an innovative design approach. Their groundbreaking invention challenged the conventions of traditional eyewear by introducing rimless glasses. Since then, the brand has crafted lightweight frames without screws or rivets, utilizing premium materials like titanium, gold, horn, wood, and diamonds. Their collections offer unparalleled design, ultimate comfort, and personalized experiences that continue to set new standards and sustain in the industry. This book, conceived on the occasion of Lindberg s fortieth anniversary, traces the story of the brand as told by its founder in the context of the Danish design tradition. Expanding from that history, the volume features deep dives on specific topics ranging from material research to advanced technology, design awards, and testimonies about the brand s understated luxury.
