SILMO 2012 // Kilsgaard With New Temples

At Silmo I also took the chance to pass by Kilsgaard. I like the way they still keep doing new things within the same concept from which you can clearly identify it’s a Kilsgaard frame without any logos. That’s what I call great design!

What fascinated me the most this year was their improvement on the temples. They now also offer acetate temples, which makes them more adjustable and comfort for the wearer, but what makes it unique is the way they made the acetate look so good together with the front made of steel. Here is an example, where temple and front are having the same color and feel by using a very interesting matte finish on the acetate:

Here is another shape I liked a lot. A good, modern looking female frame:

Some of the models are also available in more colorful combinations:

It was nice meeting you at Silmo!
