For the glasses wearer looking to lower the resolution of their frames, designer Dzmitry Samal offers pairs of retro-futuristic pixelated glasses, inspired by late â80s video games and âsocietyâs fascination with an âinformational aesthetic.'â
Samal is selling two styles of 8-bit frames, the 6dpi and 5dpi, each hand-made pair running a cool 198 euro (about $285 USD). âWhile computer images and graphics have been revolutionized over the past two decades, these glasses are reminiscent of societyâs digital roots and how technology has inspired almost everything in use today,â he writes. âEven something as utilitarian as glasses can be transformed using technology.â
Cheap? No. Stylish? Sure! Want some? You can pre-order them now from Samalâs web site.
