Paper Shades doesn’t just make eco-friendly sunglasses. We aim to educate and empower consumers with sustainable options, whilst challenging the status quo of business and manufacturing practices like never before. Jame: Having worked in design for over 10 years, I have spent a considerable amount of time in product development and production. It was never pleasant watching how much waste is created in the process. It was also painful to see products mis-matching with out dated business models that just weren't making sense anymore. I wanted to create a product which was more sustainable for both practical use and the business model. Madi: I’m not a designer, I’m a fitness & health enthusiast. I was inspired by my brothers knowledge to turn a simple idea as a drawing into a functional sustainable product, which always had a story. Before Paper Shades, I watched us both struggle with the challenges of being a one-man show in our previous start-ups and it became clear that we both needed the expertise of each other... and here we are, making eco-friendly sunglasses!
