HUGO MARTIN PARASITE

Studying design, but with optician parents, he was immersed in the world of optics from an early age, and it was only natural that he should become the builder of your eyes. In 2000, he entered an eyewear competition in the Jura region of France with an original idea for glasses with four temples that could only be held together with the help of your temples. He set up his own brand and named it “Parasite”, because like Parasite, his glasses clung to his face and he couldn’t get rid of them.

He dares to do anything, to break free of limits, to see far… and when technology becomes a hindrance, it’s in 3D printing that he bounces back to create new eyewear models. Hugo Martin, founder of “Parasite design”, gives this fashion accessory and its wearers superpowers: the power to please, the ability to fall in love with an extraordinary designer, the likes of which can exist anonymously, because the best are often silent. Note the jacket by designer Dgena.
