A study, actually a collateral, a byproduct of another work in progress --
These sunglasses have everything from the Lyrois Stylebook -- the shades are translucent (duh!) vinyl, the mural motif is responsible for some nice shadow effects on the temples, and they're made in the spirit of the 1990s customization scene.
Only one key element is missing though: Lyrois purple, because, even I can't look at everything through rose-colored glasses.
The cool thing about yellow-tinted lenses is that they increse contrast and depth perception, also, they are wearable at night, the yellow shades I used do not at all influence nor impair night vision. No reason to take them of at any time.
Stay tuned for much, much more along these lines.

Asking for comments on the vinyl-carving idea. Thinking about a hand print run with a pattern like the one in the mockup. Think wood-block printing with computer-cut plexi, the printings done by hand. Gauging interest to offer something affordable.
A mockup of the plexi-plate cut out and colored, about to be printed on fine cotton paper. I imagine a print size of about 20×20cm or 8×8in. Wood-block printing meets decals. Or so --
Below are some variations all made using the same block in a print size of about 40×60cm or 16×24in --
Would love to get feedback via twitter.com/Lyrois.

Children of Bauhaus ideas, the Lyrois chairs celebrate a rendezvous with their occupants in a conversation between art and design.
An empty chair has never been a conversation starter, something which Alexander overcomes: Art and design are about interaction, having a seat in a chair that isn't empty -- it's carried by human shapes after all -- starts an instant conversation, a ready-made rendezvous.
