BLACKFIN ONE SS26: Colour and minimalism in contemporary dialogue

Blackfin One SS26 articulates the brand’s increasingly international vision, where contemporary shapes intersect with advanced design research. A process that elevates aesthetic language through refined finishes, sophisticated color treatments, and precisely engineered stylistic solutions.

The One collection embodies Blackfin’s most authentic core: the meeting point between creative vocation and timeless perspective. A dual identity expressed through styles in which design, technology, and color engage in harmonious dialogue, with titanium as the material of choice. Minimalism evolves into more modern shapes, reinterpreting classic lines through the distinctive codes that have established Blackfin as a benchmark within the premium independent eyewear segment.

This approach is evident in Sandpoint, a squared men’s frame with double bridge, where the top bar stands out thanks to three-dimensional processing enhanced by chromatic contrast. The bilayer concept – revisited season after season through new interpretations – also defines Delray, a frame in which the cat-eye top rim is decisively outlined by a streak of color running across the surface, amplifying its expressive character.

Blackfin’s color research attains an ever-higher level of mastery. A meticulous, almost obsessive process aimed at calibrating hues into a mature visual language that strengthens the collection’s identity and conveys a deep, immediately recognizable stylistic vision.

Research and innovation allow Blackfin to continuously experiment with mechanical and constructive solutions that translate into refined style details. This is clear in Sanibel and Destin, where the angled cut of the endpieces, crafted on a double thickness, creates a geometric feature that conveys both technical excellence and elegant sophistication.

Minimalism finds its purest expression in Lowell and Marin, guided by a single design principle based on proportions. In both frames, the interplay between thinner sections at the center of the front and the gradual amplification of volume toward the outer edges redefines the balance of the shape, further enhanced by nuances in color.

The unisex 1970s-inspired Stinson completes the collection. Its hexagonal front, translated into clean, essential geometries, delivers a distinctly contemporary statement, heightened by a bold color palette that intensifies its glamorous edge.

At the Black Shelter, production follows a meticulous process shaped by study, research, and constant experimentation, deeply rooted in well-established technical know-how. A heritage of expertise preserved by highly skilled professionals, who approach each frame fully aware that they are crafting a product of uncompromising excellence.
