Take a second look. And maybe a third. You re bound to notice. The skill and savvy nee- ded to create this frame are of the highest level— or, as Akoni designers explain, there s definitely an art in being able to make something that is so sophisticated appear so minimal and simplified. The Genesis, despite its thin lines, relies on a great amount of impressive embellishment and masterful technical solutions. The skilled crafts- manship, in particular, is exemplary—since it is far from easy to create these thin, many-leveled

lines in titanium. In sum, this is a design that plays with many paradoxes—lightweight yet bold, mi- nimal yet complicated, sleek yet multi-faceted. It s worth that second look.
