Blooming
Sonja‘s eyewear design was inspired by blossoming flowers and early spectacle frames. Combining the organic forms of nature and the functional elements of spectacle frames the designer developed a convertible item that can be easily manipulated giving several different looks. The product was also designed with a practical folding possibility, taking as little space as possible in the carriers bag. The lenses are produced of laser-cut plexiglass with Orchid flower prints, and the frames are made manually using 18k gold plated brass.
Blooming Folding Eyewear by Sonja Iglic was selected as a creative illustration of fashion design by the A' Design Award & Competition. Blooming Folding Eyewear was awarded the Golden A' Design Award in Jewelry Design in 2018. The A' Jewelry Design Award is a highly prestigious international design award that honors excellent design of rings, necklaces, bracelets, earrings, brooches, pendants, cufflinks, anklets and more.
