The Shape of Green: Aesthetics, Ecology, and Design is a 2012 non-fiction book by the American architect Lance Hosey. The first book dedicated to the relationships between sustainability and beauty, it outlines a set of principles for the aesthetics of sustainable design. It was first published on 1 June 2012 through Island Press.
Glasses with a notch filter (e.g. EnChroma glasses) filter a narrow band of light around 590 nm that excites both the L- and M-cones (yellow-green wavelengths). [12] They are often combined with an additional stopband in the short wavelength (blue) region to minimize the tint on the lenses and approximate a neutral-density filter. They improve ...
A young woman wearing shutter shades. Shutter shades, also known as slatted shades, louvered shades, or Venetian blind shades are sunglasses that, instead of having darkened lenses, have horizontal slats similar to window shutters, which are an integral part of the frame.
Full frame glasses have the frame go all around the lenses. Half frames go around only half the lens; typically the frames attach to the top of the lenses and on the side near the top. Frameless glasses have no frame around the lenses and the ear stems are attached directly to the lenses.
Such materials have the potential to simplify the design of high brightness green lasers. Neodymium glass (Nd:Glass) laser ~1.062 μm (silicate glasses), ~1.054 μm (phosphate glasses) Flashlamp, laser diode Used in extremely high-power (terawatt scale), high-energy multiple beam systems for inertial confinement fusion.
In the 1950s, Pilkington Bros., England, developed the float glass process, producing high-quality distortion-free flat sheets of glass by floating on molten tin. [21] Modern multi-story buildings are frequently constructed with curtain walls made almost entirely of glass. [47] Laminated glass has been widely applied to vehicles for windscreens ...

Simple sheet or uncorrected molded glasses do not compensate for the 250 nanometer difference in the wavelengths of the red-cyan filters. With simple glasses the red filter image can be blurry when viewing a close computer screen or printed image since the retinal focus differs from the cyan filtered image, which dominates the eyes' focusing.
