VAANYARD® is a Sydney-based eyewear brand founded in 2019 by architect Lee Kan and fashion marketer Paul Gilligan. Known for bold, sculptural designs, the brand blends architectural inspiration with global contemporary culture.

Rooted in the raw beauty of urban life, VAANYARD frames feature sharp lines, thick acetate, and a minimalist, gender-neutral aesthetic that stands out.

Each frame is handcrafted using aged Japanese and Italian acetates, paired with custom hardware and laser-etched details. Precision and comfort are achieved through collaborations with top Japanese workshops.

With premium lenses from ZEISS and Essilor, VAANYARD ensures clear vision and refined style.

Now stocked in over 40 Australian retailers and expanding globally, VAANYARD continues to lead with design integrity and elevated craftsmanship.
