Oakley has teamed up with Stanley Donwood to create a new set of sunglasses that would seriously get lost next to a zebra. Actually, these shades were inspired by a piece Mr. Donwood did called ‘London Views,’ which “shows London being destroyed by fire and flood in a quasi-medieval style.” Very nice.
Stanley Donwood is no stranger to design. He has has also designed artwork for Radiohead and is a staple within the music industry. You can check out more on the Oakley and Stanley Donwood collaboration by following the links below.
