Kimbab 694: Inspired by Korea’s iconic Kimbab roll
At Vionglasses, design inspiration often comes from the everyday beauty of life — things that bring comfort, joy, and meaning. Our latest frame, Kimbab 694, draws its inspiration from one of Korea’s most beloved foods: Kimbab (Gimbab).
Just like the perfect roll of Kimbab — a harmony of colors, textures, and balance — this frame captures that same blend of simplicity, craftsmanship, and timeless appeal.
What Is Kimbab?
Kimbab is a classic Korean dish made by rolling seasoned rice (bap) and various colorful ingredients like egg, vegetables, ham in sheets of seaweed (gim). It’s known for its vibrant appearance, balanced flavor, and clean aesthetic — qualities that resonate deeply with modern design. The contrast of black seaweed and white rice, accented by bright fillings inside, reflects balance and aesthetic harmony.
In Korean culture, Kimbab has long been a staple for picnics, family trips, and school outings, symbolizing home, comfort, and sharing. Today, it remains a beloved everyday food that is convenient, nutritious, and enjoyed by all ages in Korea and beyond.
Just as Kimbab brings together diverse ingredients to create one harmonious roll, Kimbab 694 blends modern design and cultural depth into one frame.
The Inspiration Behind Kimbab 694
This Kimbab 694 frame captures the essence of the dish, black and white in perfect harmony. The upper rim, in deep gim black, symbolizes the protective seaweed layer that wraps everything together while the lower rim, in soft rice white, mirrors the clean look of freshly rolled rice.
Together, they form a minimalist two-tone palette that’s both eye-catching and refined. The visual contrast of black and white mirrors the beauty of balance — tradition and modernity, structure and softness. The craftsmanship reflects the same care and precision found in rolling Kimbab. Every layer is deliberate, every detail considered.
It’s a quiet homage to Korean culture, transformed into modern design language.
Minimal Contrast, Maximum Style
The black-and-white contrast trend continues to dominate global eyewear fashion. Designers and wearers alike are drawn to minimalism that feels clean, calm, and intentional.
Kimbab 694 fits perfectly within this trend:
- Lightweight comfort for long hours of wear
- Clean lines for a sophisticated look
- A design story rooted in culture and artistry
- Light color balance that matches any outfit
It’s ideal for those who value subtle design with meaning where design isn’t just about how it looks, but what it represents.
