The contemporary Framed mirror was designed by Anderssen & Voll.

5. For a sleek touch

Elevate your home or office with the Framed mirror from Muuto as a backdrop to add character and depth to the space. This subtle piece by Anderssen & Voll is designed to be viewed as a piece of art, rather than a mere reflective surface, with a contemporary form that gives the illusion of the mirror floating off the wall.

Artek 124 degrees mirror

The medium-sized 124 Degrees mirror comes with a small wooden shelf that appears round when viewed via the mirror.

6. For an innovative touch

The 124 Degrees Mirror from Artek is a playful yet functional exploration of light, reflection and images. As suggested by its name, two mirror surfaces are adjoined at a 124° angle with each piece reflecting different imagery of its surroundings. Yet, you will not see your reflection when looking directly into the mirror. Either fixed to a wall or as a standalone piece, this mirror is an ideal addition for small living spaces to bring in more views and light for a homey vibe.

Normann Copenhagen Flip mirror

The special edition Flip mirror in matte steel was introduced in 2019 to celebrate Normann Copenhagen’s 20th anniversary.

7. For an intimate touch

The sleek Flip mirror from Normann Copenhagen is a modernised design of the everyday desk mirror. Keeping it akin to its fundamentals, a pivoting rod was consciously designed to enhance its function by allowing users to adjust the mirror to the perfect viewing angle. With a built-in sleek tray for makeup or jewellery, it’s versatile enough to be used in the bedroom, bathroom or even in the hallway.

The Aura mirror is technically not a mirror, but lights and shapes are reflected from its shiny metal surface.

8. For a whimsical touch

The Aura table mirror balances beautifully as a sculptural object that illuminates reflections through its mix of hard, flat and curved surfaces. Unlike conventional mirrors, it’s tactilely designed to be held on for the sense of weight while the softness of its three-dimensional form counterpoises visually against it. Whether it’s placed individually or stacked as a cluster, Aura fits well with any type of furnishing paired against its simple metal silhouette.
