🎙️ Episode 1 – Live from SILMO Paris 2025
In this first special episode of The Right Optics, Nick Coffer dives into the energy and creativity of SILMO Paris 2025, recorded live at the Parc des Expositions de Villepinte.
Across the show floor, he meets the innovators, designers and entrepreneurs redefining the future of eyewear.
👓 Vanni Eyewear - Giovanni Vitaloni - SILMO d’Or 2025 winner
Recognised in the Optical Frame Design category, Vanni’s winning frame blends striking geometry with subtle craftsmanship. From afar it appears light and minimalist — up close, it reveals intricate details and deep technical precision. A perfect balance of design, comfort and timeless style.
🎨 Yiannis Makridis / For Art’s Sake × The National Gallery
A collaboration where art literally meets eyewear. Two iconic paintings — Van Gogh’s Sunflowers and Monet’s Water Lilies — are fused into transparent acetate, turning each pair into wearable art. Limited to 500 pieces worldwide, beautifully packaged and designed to be kept, not discarded.
⛵ Pierre Maruzzi / Grain de Sail Logistics – at Le Spot RSE
Sustainability with the wind behind it. Cargo sailboats transporting goods — including optical products — across the Atlantic with zero emissions. A poetic and practical step towards a cleaner, more responsible supply chain.
💡 David McLaughlin / EverySight – at Le Village Tech
Creators of the world’s lightest, slimmest AR and AI glasses. Combining high-performance technology with genuine wearability, their “glasses-first” approach makes smart eyewear truly functional — from live translation to real-time data displays.
An episode full of innovation, artistry and imagination — recorded live from SILMO Paris 2025, where creativity and technology meet to shape the eyewear of tomorrow.
