The Manu Bano OBJ-08 mirrors are a series of sculptural pieces designed by architect and designer Manuel Bano Granell that take an unexpected approach to interior decor. The mirrors were unveiled as part of the Unique Design X Fair at Mexico City Art Week and feature a copper construction that has been hammered to an ultra-thin level before being polished to perfection. The result is a metallic sculpture for the home that is reflective enough to enhance light in a space and more.
The Manu Bano OBJ-08 mirrors come in the wall mirror and floor mirror models, which are crafted only using the aforementioned copper to give them an elegantly minimal profile. This also allows the pieces to be easily recycled into something new if ever desired.
