The 'Framed: Who Are You? chart, created by Reading Glasses Shopper, gives a hilarious run-through of what people may make of one's choice of spectacles.
From hipster to artist and everywhere in between, the chart is a hilarious (albeit stereotype-based) take on the personalities behind these popular styles. The guide is extremely straightforward and contains little text apart from a short title for each pair. Minimalist and exceptionally well-designed with wonderfully whimsy graphics, the chart is a pleasure to look at and even more fun to read. The scheme of the graph is extremely subtle, featuring a muted background with popping (but not overwhelming) colored glasses.
Referencing multiple cultural trends and icons, this graph is intriguing regardless of whether a reader is in the market for a new pair of glasses.
