On the Street, Drottninggatan


Yesterday Mats Almegård interviewed Barbara and I for Swedish Trade Magazine Optik about why we started blogging about eyewear. The Inteview will be published in the November issue. So we took the opportunity of asking him some questions about himself:

Mats is editor of the Optik Magazine and he also has a radio show about electronic music on Swedish Radio P2 called Ström. Right now he’s making a film about electronic music where they’ve interviewed many artist who’ve made different types of electronic music since the 50’s until today. It’ll be shown in June 2012.

At the fair…Silmo 2011

At Silmo in Paris I met many cool people with cool glasses and I saw a few creative displays. Here’s a mix of the best!

Fun and crazy frame balanced out by a soft color works great together!
