Selima's Take on Google Glasses for Businessweek

Selima was asked by Bloomberg Businessweek to contribute her designer take on the Google Glass prototype alongside Cutler & Gross, Ashcroft and Drift. 


By proposing a symmetrical take in acetate(above), her signature choice of material, Selima set out to give the prototype a decidedly luxurious identity with curvaceous lines and a statement making browline. The end result offers an alternative to Google's original design to combine technological advancement with beautiful, thoughtful design. While the hidden device suggests an incognito appeal, similar to that of your favorite pair of sunglasses.

You can find the complete article online and on newsstands nationwide now.
