# Brutalist-Inspired Eyewear Stands Craighill Presents the New Eyewear Stand with a Sleek Look By Amy Duong | Published 2025-02-08 | Art & Design Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/craighill-1 References: [yankodesign](https://www.yankodesign.com/2025/02/06/minimalist-metal-eyewear-stand-is-the-perfect-tabletop-edc-for-distinguished-gentlemen/)  Craighill introduces a look at its new Eyewear stand, which has a sculptural form and themes inspired by Brutalist structures. The stand is made from cast metal materials -- this ensures that it provides a sturdy weight and security, feeling substantial. The glasses lean into the stand in a relaxed way, almost as if it is reclining as the minimal extension is where it holds up the nose-shaped eyewear stand. It mimics the function of a nose to the eyewear without looking like a nose itself. The indirect visual is brilliant and true to the style of Craighill. There is also a brass version which will patina over time, adding to its own individual character.
