When Dieter Funk started his company in 1992, he founded an independent label for big, bold glasses. By 2002, he had moved his company to the small village of Kinsau and into a beautiful ancient farm house with lots of space, starting his own manufacturing workshop.
The complex and elaborate production of their “Dieter Funk” models requires precision machinery and careful manual work.

They soon launched a second Kinsau collection. The “Sashee Schuster” line of spectacles was created with natural materials and produced through an elaborate laminating technique. High-contrast substances are combined in order to create vivid and effective color variations. The ingredients between the acetate layers are real bits of nature: flowers, seeds, spices, feathers, etc.

Since transparency is what makes seeing possible in the first place, interested customers are also allowed to visit the manufactory by appointment. There are further Funk Optik stores in Munich, Berlin and Vienna.

Furniture from London

Quality first is a genuine priority for the studio, along with a ­commitment to using the finest materials. While PINCH mainly uses the natural beauty of timber, more unusual materials, such as jesmonite and banana leaf fiber, are used to ensure aethetic proportions and lightness.
