‘5dpi’ by dzmitry samal
paris-based belarusian designer dzmitry samal has created ‘5dpi’ glasses. the frames of the eyewear emulate a pixelated effect that often occured in late 1980’s computerized graphics. the glasses are molded from acetate and filed in order to create the angular pixilated frame, painted brightly afterward. the futuristic specs recall the societal fascination with ‘informational aesthetic’.
