What is Flatlist?
Flatlist is an eyewear brand founded in Copenhagen, Denmark, in 2018. The founders, Mads Faith Hancock and Kasper Spacey, set out to make technically advanced eyewear that feels effortless enough to wear all day.
Products and positioning
The signature design is a straight side temple, which the founders describe as recognisable "by the sound they make when you drop them on a table". Frames are made from Mazzucchelli acetate, fitted with Carl Zeiss lenses and hinges from OBE.
The aesthetic draws on two influences: the freedom of expression of the 1970s and the minimalism of the 1990s. The brand has in mind a modern man who values detail and craftsmanship.
Distribution
Flatlist is carried by independent retailers such as the Danish store Harreso, and its sunglasses have also been listed by international fashion e-tailers.
Why it matters
Flatlist pairs Danish design with Italian acetate and German optics, and turns a single design detail, the straight temple, into a brand signature.
