Spegla Mirror Lamp

by Jochen Lavéno Mangelsdorff

CONCEPT STATEMENT:

How cool isn’t it to be able to control the visibility behind a mirror. With Spegla Mirror Lamp you can! You simply dim up the light with the cord control wheel and a seamless overtone between the Mirror and the lamp will occur without changing the shape of the base. This fools the viewer who will question what happened and how it works.

How does it work though? The two-sided Spegla Mirror Lamp is based on a specific mirror glass that is not completely opaque. The result is an interior object that acts as a mirror when the lamp behind the circular glass sheet isn’t lit. While turning the light up, the glass sheet transmits the light through the glass, while the mirror effect gets less visible. At the same time the matt edge of the mirror begins to glow and enhances the round shape with the golden glowing frame.
