HGA
is here.

Philipp Haffmans

Co-founder of multiple industry-defining labels that have reshaped what independent eyewear can be.

His minimalist design language is rooted in industrial precision and everyday wearability, a philosophy that bridges rigorous engineering logic with strong, memorable visual identity. Form follows function, but never at the expense of character.

Today: Developing new materials, advanced construction principles, and exploring subtle technological integration that enhances rather than overwhelms

Harald Gottschling

Artist, engineer, and radical experimenter whose work spans engineering, art, architecture, fashion and music. Co-founder of eyewear icons that challenged an entire industry's conventions. His fearless material exploration challenges conventional production methods and aesthetic norms alike. Technology becomes a tool for expression and conceptual depth, not mere technical achievement.
