Porsche Design Glasses

Porsche Design Glasses Studio was established in Stuttgart, Germany, in 1972 by Professor Ferdinand Alexander Porsche (nickname Butzi). The grandson of the Porsche founder Ferdinand Porsche who was famed for designing the Porsche 911. Originally known as the 901, the car is just one example of the many objects Prof. Ferdinand Alexander Porsche designed throughout his career, all based on the principle that "if you analyze the function of an object, its form often becomes obvious." If you want to know about the heritage of the Porsche Brand check out our blog on Porsche Design. Porsche has been producing car-related accessories since the 1950s, with luggage series, clothing and lifestyle products all being offered in the "Porsche Boutique". The Design Studio was relocated to Zell am See in Austria in 1974 where it remains today. It creates the contemporary work in line with Butzi’s vision.
