Collection: DōkōMotto

The DōkōMotto collection reveals a bold and expressive design, marked by geometric shapes and contrasting color schemes. Each frame, carefully designed and produced in limited editions, embodies independent creativity and a strong identity.

The brand's DNA

Little known to the general public, DokoMotto is an independent brand born from a singular vision: to create eyewear as one would design an architectural structure—austere, poetic, and functional. Each model is distinguished by an extreme minimalist design, precise technical details, and a perfect balance between raw materials and subtle lines.

His story

Still a relatively unknown brand, the DōkōMotto brand appeared on the eyewear market in the 1980s and 1990s, a period marked by the emergence of independent designers in Europe and Japan. Produced in limited editions, its glasses reflect the spirit of the era: experimenting with shapes, playing with materials, and asserting a strong identity. Not widely available, they circulated mainly in specialist boutiques and among knowledgeable enthusiasts.

The iconic frames

- Geometric oversize frames: colored acetates, square or angular shapes.

- Two-tone series: contrasts of bold shades (red/black, blue/translucent).

- Sculpted frames: worked temples and bold reliefs.

- Transparency games: translucent acetates combined with colored glasses.

- Each model expresses a strong design, on the border between fashion accessory and artistic object.
