Want to see the world through your favorite typeface? Now you can, thanks to Japanese company Type. Taking inspiration from the respective typeface, the company has created two lines of eyewear, ‘Helvetica’ and ‘Garamond’. Each line comes in three different variations, ‘light’, ‘regular’ and ‘bold’, which defines the thickness of the frames.
Designed for those in love with typography, the glasses come priced at ¥24,150 (US$231) each. Check them out here.

Growing up in the San Francisco Bay Area in the 60’s, Tom developed a strong desire to create positive change for people and planet.
He went on to pursue his passion for art and design at Art Center College of Design in Pasadena, California, and worked for design firms in Southern California before moving to Boise, Idaho in the early 80’s. Foerstel Design opened its doors in 1985. Since its inception, the firm has cultivated a bold, happy, forward-looking team focussed on creating distinct and effective work on behalf of their clients.
An integral part of Tom’s philosophy is giving back to the community in which he lives — a company cornerstone that drives Foerstel’s long history of providing pro-bono services to local non-profit humanitarian and arts programs.
One of Tom’s proudest personal achievements is his ability to say Supercalifragilisticexpyalidocious backwards.
