The 'Lean Glasses' have been created as a simple yet minimalistic solution to a common design problem that exists for millions of consumers who wear glasses. Designed by Daylight Design for Vistoso, the glasses have been elegantly truncated on the top and bottom section of the lenses to allow for a flush connection with a surface when not being worn. This creates a slight bit of visual intrigue for the glasses by accenting the carved out portion to highlight the minimalistic yet highly functional design of the eyewear.
The conceptual 'Lean Glasses' speak to the growing shift towards minimalistic aesthetics amongst consumers who are no longer interested in complicated products that will detract from their overall lifestyle or personal style.
