‘Casa Batllรณ x Etnia Barcelona’ capsule

Etnia Barcelona launches ‘Casa Batllรณ x Etnia Barcelona’, a limited-edition capsule of sunglasses inspired by the most significant symbols of Antoni Gaudรญ’s work.

With this new capsule collection, the brand elevates the look with a unique, creative, and sophisticated vision.

‘Casa Batllรณ x Etnia Barcelona’ is inspired by one of the most emblematic buildings in the city of Barcelona, a World Heritage Site, and one of the greatest examples of Modernism, an artistic movement transformative for the Catalan capital due to its decorative exuberance, explosion of color, and characteristic sinuous and undulating lines. A living and free art inspired by the organic forms of nature, breaking with previous norms.

Casa Batllรณ x Etnia Barcelona’ is an immersion into the Gaudinian universe, a representation of the majesty of Casa Batllรณ.

In this collaboration, the brand pays homage to the artistic movement that has shaped the personality of the city and invites us to delve into this fantastical world inspired by nature.ย

Every corner of Casa Batllรณ is present in this limited edition of sunglasses: the oval shape of the front that recreates the balconies, the scaly texture of the temples like the roof, the temple tips inspired by the door-knobs, the gold-plated details of the frame, and the color palette of the collection. The capsule consists of eight unique and numbered designs, featuring the most iconic symbols of Gaudรญ’s work.

Additionally, Etnia Barcelona encapsulates a part of this masterpiece in exclusive packaging that captures the essence of Gaudรญ and transports us to one of the most fascinating buildings of Modernism.ย 

Masunaga Optical

This limited-edition sunglass design also draws from the latest fashion trends: they are vibrant, oversized sunglasses with a highly trendy and exuberant front. ‘Casa Batllรณ x Etnia Barcelona’ manages to become the most exclusive and creative piece of current fashion, while the Barcelona eyewear brand pays tribute to Modernism and takes another step forward in its commitment to art, quality, and color.ย 

About Etnia Barcelona

Etnia Barcelona was first born as an independent eyewear brand back in 2001. All its collections are developed from beginning to end by the brandโ€™s own design team, which is fully responsible for the entire creative process.

Above all, Etnia Barcelona stands out for its use of colour in each and every one of its designs, making it currently the firm with the most colour references in the entire eyewear sector.

All its glasses are crafted in the highest quality natural materials, such as Mazzucchelli natural acetates and HD mineral lenses.

Today the firm boasts a presence in over 50 countries and more than 15,000 points of sale around the world. It operates out of its Barcelona HQ and has subsidiaries in Miami, Vancouver and Hong Kong, in all, employing a multidisciplinary team of more than 650 people.

#BeAnartist is the watchword of Etnia Barcelona. It is a call to express oneself freely through design. Etnia Barcelona embraces color, art and culture but, more than anything else, it is a name intimately bound to the city in which it was born and has thrived. Barcelona stands for a lifestyle open to the world, nothing more nor less than a question of attitude.
