Abstract

This work describes a series of glasses, both for people with visual handicap, and the glasses are not only limited for use only by people with poor sight. I have, based on the course Senses, done research and looked into how to design glasses for visual handicapped people in terms of function, look and expression. I have elaborated with several different glasses and performed many experiments to come up with my final result, consisting of a series of glasses. The glasses in the series are made with a weight on one side, one step on the bottom to get the possibility for the glass to tilt over, which enables you to both hear and see when you have reach a certain amount of substance in the glass. It has also been important for me that the glasses express something and get an individual identity. The result became glasses for whiskey, coffee, shots and mull wine.
