Sometimes the right piece doesn’t exist.
We spent months searching for a mirror for this powder room and never found one that felt quite right. So instead of compromising, we made one.
Starting with a shape traced from a dining chair, we worked with Place des Arts and their ceramics program to develop a custom mirror frame from scratch. Through glaze testing, mockups, and a lot of experimentation, the final piece became the focal point of the room.
What made it even better was seeing the project become a learning opportunity - under the tutelage of Dan Severance the ceramics students transformed an idea on paper into a piece of art.
One of the best parts of design is knowing when to stop shopping and start creating.
