We use responsibly sourced Swedish stainless steel grade made of 88% recycled metal for our iconic frames.

Fashioned from stainless steel sheets, the frames are made into a three-dimensional structure through a series of bending and folding steps, similar to the Japanese art of origami.

Our Story

MYKITA was founded in Berlin in 2003. Our first premises were a former children’s day care, called Kita in German. This inspired not only the name My Kita, but also the culture of curiosity, learning and play that persists to this day. Connected by our questioning of norms and conventions, we came together with the pure desire to build something of our own. Starting out with a clear aesthetic vision, we swiftly discovered our readiness to do things ourselves. Creating an open-minded work environment and a sense of integrity toward everything in and around the product came intuitively.

A creative company in Berlin in the early 2000s did require a different mindset than it would have in London, Paris or New York – freedom from the establishment fostered self-sufficiency. MYKITA started out in the same independent and pioneering spirit that shaped our hometown. From product to business, we have carved our own path. With no one to manufacture our original designs, the decision was made to set up the in-house production. Developing our own tools and processes to meet design requirements has since become a principle of how MYKITA operates and one of our greatest assets.

The novel design concept of the first collection introduced frames fashioned from ultra-thin stainless steel sheets. An openly displayed spiral hinge replaced the conventionally used hinge systems. This mechanical solution became an incidental styling element, a hallmark of MYKITA frames. We remain true to the fundamental design principle represented by our original patented hinge: the technical solution must also be an aesthetic one.

Globally oriented from the outset, we made our debut in Tokyo, closely followed by Paris, in 2004. The first MYKITA collection consisted of thirty superlight stainless steel glasses. The innovative product design and minimal branding immediately resonated with an international audience. Back in Berlin, we had quickly to step up the production line in order to supply the unexpected number of orders. Connecting with a worldwide audience through our designs is a continual source of fulfilment and motivation. Official recognition regularly validates this positive customer response. Over the years MYKITA has been honoured with over 40 awards and formal distinctions in the field of product, shop, and communication design, as well as material and technological innovation, and business enterprise.
