For my sunglasses design, i was inspired by the transitional Chinese glasses but I am not create a similarity theme.  I tried to keep its particular perception and its character and have a combination with modern style design- the side of the glasses, using strange, clear line shape.

To create this sunglasses on Rhino, I started to develop the idea by free hand drawing, and make arrangement in Photoshop then used 'pictureframe' to import drawings into rhino in three sections, used extend curve to create a solid from a planar surface and used mirror to built up the glasses overall looks like. Also, I used lots of 'pipe', 'FilleEdge', 'Sweep2' and 'Trim', there are also an amazing command called ' Flow'.

For the materials, I choose glossy, silver to be the main medium, and also a smooth plastic decoration on each side.
