Wall-mounted mirror

contemporarystainless steelwhite

This mirror is carefully crafted from a stainless steel sheet with a high-gloss finish, which is cut with a laser and then bent twice to create depth. Then the brushed part is finished by hand. In this way, an industrial stainless steel sheet is transformed into something with more character, while adding or subtracting as little as possible to its original shape. This takes both the usability and character of the material to a higher level. With this product, designer Theodóra Alfreðsdóttir wants to encourage people to become more interested in how things are made. By understanding how everyday things are made, she hopes there will be more respect for the materials used and that we will all take more responsibility for our choices as consumers. With its remarkable design, this mirror adds a beautiful graphic element to any interior. The semicircle forms a soft, organic contrast to the straight lines creating a fascinating geometric shape. The Stainless Steel Mirror was designed by Icelandic designer Theodóra Alfreðsdóttir. At her design studio in London, Theodóra works on telling stories through objects. Her work explores the stories an object can tell and finds ways to express them through the object itself. In doing so, she is interested in how a product can show and document its own manufacturing process. The Stainless Steel Mirror is a great example of this. The product was created from a challenge set by Theodóra herself to transform a mirror-polished stainless steel plate into something with a little more character, without adding to, or taking away from the original form - and thus not creating waste.
