The Press Mirror from Umbra Shift is another great example of the group’s affinity for pushing recognisable household objects into new and interesting areas. The chrome coloured mirror of polished steel brings a futuristic look and shape to the home. Perfect for an eye-catching addition the the home, the mirror is ideal fro bedroom desks, or mantelpieces. An unusual take on a hand mirror, the item shows off a keen sense of how to do things differently, and to mesmerising effect.
