Ciclope Mirror

Claesson Koivisto Rune embarked on a mission to reinvent the classic Ciclope mirror design, pushing the boundaries of scale and function. Traditionally, mirrors have been perceived as modest, utilitarian objects, often small in size and relegated to a purely functional role within an interior space.

Drawing inspiration from historical designs, Claesson Koivisto Rune recognized the potential to elevate the Ciclope mirror from a secondary element to a central, commanding feature in a room.

Their approach was rooted in the belief that Ciclope mirrors could transcend their conventional roles, becoming bold, statement pieces that not only reflect but also shape the aesthetic of the space they inhabit.

By enlarging the dimensions of these typically small mirrors, Claesson Koivisto Rune has transformed them into significant objects of art and design, capable of anchoring a room’s visual narrative.

The decision to scale up these mirrors was not merely a matter of size but a deliberate attempt to create an interaction between the mirror and its surroundings. The mirror becomes more than just a reflective surface; it serves as a focal point, drawing the eye and defining the space.

The larger scale of these mirrors allows them to interact with the architecture of a room in a way that smaller mirrors cannot. They capture and reflect more light, creating a sense of openness and expansiveness.

Additionally, these mirrors can reflect entire vistas of the room, effectively doubling the perceived space and contributing to a more dynamic, layered interior.

This transformation turns the mirror into a piece of art, blurring the lines between functionality and decoration, and asserting its presence as a central, influential element in contemporary interior design.

This innovative approach by Claesson Koivisto Rune invites a reconsideration of how mirrors are used in interiors, positioning them as integral, attention-commanding features that enhance and define the spaces they occupy.
