# Chaotically Clustered Reflectors The Unique Oponce Mirror Merges Design from Different Spheres By Amelia Roblin | Published 2013-03-12 | Art & Design Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/oponce-mirror References: [industrialdesignserved](http://www.industrialdesignserved.com/gallery/OPONCE/5601829) & [behance.net](http://www.behance.net/gallery/OPONCE/5601829) Seeing yourself from various angles can be more useful than beholding your image straight-on. The Oponce Mirror collection comprises [clusters of looking glasses](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/zigzag-collection) that have been incorporated into frames that bend and turn, simultaneously presenting fragmented pictures with slight side views. This quirky home accessory was produced as a collaboration between several different designers and manufacturers including Jean-Charles Amey, Pierre-Yves le Sonn, Claire Baudrimont and Sebastien Poinas. The final product expresses this multifariousness in its abstract and topsy-turvy appearance, as well as in its subtly discernible fusion of domestic and automotive design. It seems that the individual reflective units have been inspired by [cars' rearview mirrors](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/drought). The Oponce Mirror comes in a variety of sizes and shapes with anywhere from one to five connected reflectors. They're playfully trimmed with colorful leather over their rounded wood-plastic structures. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 0.9/10 - Popularity: 16% | Activity: 2% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Gen Z, Gen Alpha, Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: Europe ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Art & Design](https://www.trendhunter.com/artdesign) > [Design](https://www.trendhunter.com/design) ## Key Themes ### Key Themes Behind This Trend - **Mixed-media Mirrors:** The Oponce Mirror collection showcases the trend of incorporating different materials and design influences into mirror frames. - **Fragmented Perspective:** The use of clusters of reflectors in the Oponce Mirror collection reflects the trend of providing fragmented reflections and multiple viewpoints. - **Multidisciplinary Collaboration:** The collaboration between various designers and manufacturers in creating the Oponce Mirror exemplifies the trend of cross-industry partnerships in design. ### Where This Applies - **Home Decor:** The Oponce Mirror collection offers potential for disrupting the home decor industry by introducing unconventional and playful mirror designs. - **Automotive:** The automotive industry can explore opportunities in incorporating innovative mirror designs inspired by the Oponce Mirror's use of car rearview mirrors. - **Furniture Manufacturing:** Through the fusion of different materials in mirror frames, the Oponce Mirror collection presents disruptive innovation opportunities in the furniture manufacturing sector. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Wavy Dual-Action Mirrors](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/archvyli.md) - [Sophisticated Copper Mirrors](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/manu-ba.md) - [Curvaceous Shelf-Paired Mirrors](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/wave-mirror.md) - [Dynamic Structural Mirror Designs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/bton-brut.md) - [Sculpturally Artistic Copper Mirrors](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/manu-bano-obj08-mirrors.md) - [Artful Hanging Contemporary Mirrors](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/ready-to-hang.md) - [Artful Custom Mirror Collections](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/portraits-collection.md) - [Reflective Water-Themed Mirrors](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/lakes-collection.md) - [Travel-Themed Fractured Mirrors](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/baggage-claim-mirrors.md)
