Why the Vintage 60s Design? In the 1960s, technology was expanding rapidly alongside design and culture. Technology did not only inspired aesthetics designs but enabled us to embark on unprecedented explorations to enrich the texture of life. This included a rise in popularity of lucite and newly colored plastics used in a variety of products. Today, we embrace technological advances while feeling nostalgic about the retro technology of the past generation.

The old-school aesthetics of industrial design is a timeless charm which pairs perfectly with the contemporary sleek technology, and inspires the “Escura Instant-60s Camera”. This is a ‑ne representation of our appreciation for the 60’s design trends and desire for the most authentic photographic experience.
