Vaarnii’s Alter mirror, designed by Industrial Facility’s Sam Hecht and Kim Colin, offers a distinctive addition to the walls of your home. Made from Finnish pinewood and a copper-tinted mirror, Alter has a certain architectural quality that makes it simultaneously stand out and blend in depending on what is desired. The slanted sides add yet another interesting visual element to the design, while also concealing a functional detail: a row of hooks hidden in the back.
