GÖTTI DIMENSION – LUNESTS PRINTED IN 3D
The Dimension collection is entirely produced by Götti in its own manufacture. From the initial idea and design, to 3D programming and additive production, to dyeing and final assembly – each step is done with great care and experience on the spot. Thanks to modern and durable manufacturing, an extremely comfortable pair of glasses is created in a design style typical of Götti: innovative, condensed, well thought out.
Piece by piece
Additive production methods open up many new possibilities and offer designers great freedom of creation. Production is piece by piece, and small batches allow many customizable options. The frames are extremely light, very resistant, and the matte and regular surface is immediately visible.
Production
It all begins with the conception of form. A computer forms the drawing into a complete frame, then turns it into a printable model. The dedicated and sustainable production is carried out using the most modern additive production methods in our own factory. The basic material, the polyamide, is introduced as a fine powder into the SLS printer, which then builds the layered form using a laser beam. Many surface treatments are then required to finish the components of the single frame. During the final dyeing process, the specially created color penetrates into the original white material and creates a uniform and lasting coloring.
GÖTTI PERSPECTIVE – ILLIMITED VARIATIONS
From the initial outline to the finished product, the Perspective line was entirely developed by Götti. The main objective was to create our own system of glasses without edge. The patented construction of glasses is strictly based on screwless connections. The result is an extremely comfortable design, whose creativity is unlimited. Perspective glasses are produced by Götti in its own manufacture.
System – Constant minimalism – with a lot of character. The glasses consist of a few ingenious components assembled without screws, welding or glue. Thanks to its ideal material characteristics, the special connector manufactured in an additive way ensures a permanent connection between the frame and the glass, while creating a soft protective layer. Together with high-quality Sandvik stainless steel metal components, frames meet the highest criteria for style and durability. The glasses are extremely light and very comfortable to wear. The collection is very clearly structured and contains unlimited options and combinations: Each shape is available in 3 sizes, as well as in Rimless, Loop, Bold variants, and for some models also in Space and Folio. Thus, it is possible to create several style directions using the same system. The Rimless version is resolutely minimalist and offers maximum lightness, extreme comfort, and a declaration of confidence and simplicity. A very fine Loop edge accentuates the shape of the lens and creates a subtle color accent, creating a dynamic interaction between delicate sobriety and strong expression. The variable thickness of the Bold edges gives the glasses an even stronger expression. An exciting outline creates personality while remaining incredibly light. Space edge or Folio contour create safe glasses
Production – Each part of the frame has been developed by Götti Switzerland and is produced in its own factory in Switzerland. Connectors and rims are made of polyamide using additive production methods.
LUNETS – MADE IN SWITZERLAND
The Dimension and Perspective collections represent a complete overhaul of traditional bezel products and are full of innovation and optimization.
The company's own workshop allows for the immediate realization of new ideas and the constant search for new materials and improved manufacturing processes. Moreover, thanks to local partnerships, the distances travelled for production are short and efficient – a high degree of flexibility and independent and local manufacturing that is consistent with Swiss quality standards. Glasses made in Switzerland.
Götti Dimension – Unlimited variations for sustainable individualists. Made in our own workshop using 3D printing to protect the earth's resources. Thanks to a targeted production, the size of the glasses, the length of the branches and the nose bridge can be selected to create a perfect fit. The frames are extremely light, very robust, and presented with a matte finish and an incomparable urban look.
Götti Perspective – A constant minimalism with a lot of character. This frameless collection is characterized by extreme technical precision and refined aesthetics. The glasses consist of a few individual pieces that assemble to form a seamless entity without traditional assembly methods. The result: A customizable system with virtually unlimited possibilities thanks to its simple design. A spectrum of colours can be freely combined. These models, which use high quality materials, meet the most stringent requirements for style, durability and comfort.
AMOUNTS IN TITANE – LEGISLATION AND ELEGANCE
Götti Switzerland's titanium mounts appeal to the exceptional lightness and quality of their production. Since its creation, Götti has entrusted the manufacture of its titanium frames to the same company in Japan, and this long collaboration allows the unwavering realization of design ideas.
Material – Titanium has many advantages as a material for glasses. Despite its lightness, it has an extremely high degree of stability – moreover, it is very resistant to corrosion and pleasant on the skin.
Production – For more than 20 years, complex production has been taking place at one of Japan's most renowned mount manufacturers. It is a long-standing friendship based on mutual know-how and passion for our glasses. Production differs according to the type of glasses. Some models are made of fine titanium wire. These frames impress with their soft finesse and minimal presence, while maintaining their robustness. Other models are stamped in a titanium sheet and a high repeated compression ensures the desired stability. Up to 300 tonnes of weight are used to accurately shape components in the required form using up to seven individual stamping and pressing tools. Whether it is an end piece or an external contour, the slightest curvature of the design is expressed with the utmost precision. The fusion of expertise and machine is essential, as many intermediate steps are carried out with a very traditional craft finesse.
ACETA MONTHS – EXPERT MANUAL POLISHING
Our acetate glasses are known for their superior comfort, balanced design language and incomparable hand polishing. Götti develops the colors of its high-end acetate in collaboration with an Italian acetate manufacturer anchored in tradition. Mounts have been produced by selected plants in Germany and Austria since 1998.
Material – The acetate is a hypoallergenic material of plant origin. The basic component is cotton, a renewable resource. It is light, retains its shape and offers almost unlimited colour nuances. The acetate leaves are made exclusively for Götti in Italy.
Production – The next stages of production take place in close cooperation with our factories in Germany and Austria. The first step is to mill the acetate sheets on a computer-controlled machine. After many stages of finishing, the individual components of the frame are polished for several days in a wooden drum, giving them a brilliant shine and soft edges. In total, more than 200 work steps are required before the glasses are ready for final polishing.
Hand polishing – A unique feature of each Götti acetate frame is hand polishing by master hand. It requires great attention to detail, experience and skills. Our polishing artists are called Barbara, Brigitte, Ludmilla, Renate and Waltraud. With their passion and enthusiasm, they give life to colours and facets. That's why we write the name of the polisher in each frame, like a personal quality label.
PHILOSOPHY
Since its inception in 1998, the company has focused on innovation, quality and sustainability. The models of frames created in this spirit are designed under the direction of Sven Götti in Switzerland. A minimalist and harmonious design language is the driving thread of the collection. It is an unequivocal expression of stylistic confidence, quality and Swiss character.
From the first hand-drawn sketches and design ideas to marketing, production and global distribution, most of the work stages take place at Wädenswil headquarters. Glasses, exclusively made of acetate and titanium, are produced in collaboration with specialized manufacturers in Germany, Austria and Japan.
DESIGNER – SVEN GÖTTI
« For me, the design of glasses is a fascinating and stimulating work of love to which I gladly devote my experience. The design of glasses challenges me both aesthetically and mechanically. »
A pair of glasses always consists of the same three elements: two branches and one front piece with two glasses. However, it is in our nature of human beings to develop countless variants over time. I'm happy to be part of this endless universe of glasses. When I designed my first pair of glasses more than 25 years ago, it was the beginning of a passion that continues to inspire me to this day. The aesthetics, the spirit of time, the materials, the fine mechanical solutions and, lately, the possibilities of 3D printing are part of the formula for making beautiful glasses.
