What is neubau eyewear?

neubau eyewear is an eyewear label from Austria created by Silhouette, the Austrian eyewear manufacturer, to broaden its brand portfolio. The name and identity come from Neubau, the creative district of Vienna, and the brand describes itself as inspired by young, contemporary Vienna.

Products and positioning

The brand launched with a 12-style ophthalmic collection for men and women, followed by sunglasses. Frames are made from lightweight polymer and offered in colours including crystal and tortoiseshell.

  • Optical frames for men and women
  • Sunglasses
  • Lightweight polymer materials
  • Made in Austria

The label targets a younger, millennial customer than its parent's core business, and its collections take their identity from the young, creative character of the Neubau district rather than from classic optical styling. The colour range, from clear crystal to tortoiseshell, supports this contemporary positioning.

Why it matters

neubau shows how an established eyewear manufacturer can use a separate, city-inspired brand to reach a younger audience while keeping design and production in Austria.
