Concept design for sunglasses. First prize in the 2020 Royal College of Art Eyewear Competition (theme: 'The Look of Love'). Inspired by the Song of Songs and the human senses. White plastic three-part rimless frame incorporating scented beads and pearls (pomander balls) that roll within a channel, blending into pear-necklace-type neck cord. Rose-tinted oval rimless lenses, symbolising affection, with undulating edges inspired by Georgian miniature eye portraits.
