Experiment with Nature » Videos http://experimentwithnature.com Shwood Blog Tue, 16 Apr 2019 20:07:29 +0000 en-US hourly 1 https://wordpress.org/?v=4.3.34 SHWOOD X SHAPER STUDIOS http://experimentwithnature.com/02-videos/shwood-x-shaper-studios/ http://experimentwithnature.com/02-videos/shwood-x-shaper-studios/#comments Wed, 07 Jun 2017 17:33:23 +0000 http://experimentwithnature.com/?p=4887 Anyone who works with their hands understands the beauty that comes with it. For us, it’s a means of simple, easy living, and an appreciation of the details. It’s this shared mentality that united us to create a collection of eyewear that celebrates both the handcrafted process, and the Pacific coastline that inspires our unique artforms.

Our collaborative Surf Resin collection features Italian acetate and genuine hardwood frames, complimented by Shaper Studios’ custom bio-based surf resin. All frames are outfitted with polarized lenses to match the one-of-a-kind surf bio-resin inlays.

Shwood Eyewear Forest Collection http://experimentwithnature.com/02-videos/shwood-eyewear-forest-collection/ http://experimentwithnature.com/02-videos/shwood-eyewear-forest-collection/#comments Tue, 20 Sep 2016 01:00:47 +0000 http://experimentwithnature.com/?p=4772 A walk beneath the canopy of the Pacific Northwest forests inspires a feeling of tranquility unmatched by many other places. Your senses are awakened by the seemingly endless palette of colors, textures, and sounds created by the months upon months of rainfall.

Existing in a state of constant growth and evolution, all life forms seem to intertwine and coexist.  To harness the lush textures and deep colors of this inspiring environment, we’ve foraged and transformed an assortment of moss and pinecones into eyewear that exhibits a collage of the forest floor.

The Oxidized Collection http://experimentwithnature.com/02-videos/the-oxidized-collection/ http://experimentwithnature.com/02-videos/the-oxidized-collection/#comments Thu, 03 Sep 2015 17:40:20 +0000 http://experimentwithnature.com/?p=4396 Earlier this week we debuted our latest material experiment, The Oxidized Collection. To complete this project, our product design team harnessed the power of oxidization to bring brilliant turquoise, blues, and golds from genuine brass. These brass inlays are then applied to two versions of our classic Canby silhouette for a look that has truly stood against the tests of time. To accomplish the oxidizing process that normally can take months to years, we apply a calculated mixture of ammonia & salt to raw brass in a controlled container. When cleaned and polished after a day-long resting period, the results are quite stunning.

 

Check out the photos below, watch the video of the process, and visit our WEBSITE to see more.

Shwood for Atlantic Records Collection http://experimentwithnature.com/02-videos/shwood-for-atlantic-records-collection/ http://experimentwithnature.com/02-videos/shwood-for-atlantic-records-collection/#comments Mon, 13 Jul 2015 20:43:21 +0000 http://experimentwithnature.com/?p=4342 Atlantic Records is classic. It’s revolutionary. It has pushed the envelope of popular music since it introduced jazz and R&B to the masses 60 years ago. And now Shwood is pleased to play a role in Atlantic’s legacy of experimentation and quality.

Introducing the Shwood for Atlantic Records Collection. Two versions of our classic Canby shape, both integrating genuine Atlantic vinyl records for a look as effortless as the music it embodies.

Built Not Bought http://experimentwithnature.com/03-found/built-not-bought/ http://experimentwithnature.com/03-found/built-not-bought/#comments Thu, 16 Apr 2015 18:18:21 +0000 http://experimentwithnature.com/?p=4160 Great video feature on the value of making things by the crew at Visual Revolutionary. Check out the profile they put together of Greg Fuller and his perspective on the resurgence of the “Maker” culture.

Greg offers a compelling opinion on how the majority of the work most of us do these days is somewhat intangible, leaving us often without the physical proof of a product at the end of a long days’ work. He feels this desire for tangible creation is fueling the resurgence of our desire to make, create, and produce.

Excited for more episodes of this series!
