The Final Design

This is the design that as a group we felt represented Verdure best and would suit our customer. It has elements of classic shaping and colouring that will make the pair timeless. The cat eye shape tends to suit most face shapes and the gap between the frame and lense helps to tone down the marble effect.
the centre has the logo embedded into the frame work, making the design easily recognisable.

Materials and creating this design in an eco-friendly manner

I have recently discovered an eco-friendly material that can be injection-moulded into any shape. Arborform uses wood pulp alongside a natural resin, i would use this for the frame. I would then cover the frame in a lacquer that would produce the marbled effect. Arborform can stand intensely high heat and therefore will be perfect for holidays.

For the lenses, i would use an eco-friendly acetate, which is only slightly more expensive than a normal acrylic. The tint will be black and shall provide UV protection.

The Chain and weight can be made from a silver that is sustainably sourced and is regarded as highly ethical.
