color frame mirror
Design Julie Richoz, 2024
Glass, lacquered ash
Made by Vitra
First created in the period around 3000 BC, mirrors exist in countless shapes, styles and sizes. The Color Frame Mirror is enriching this category with its striking design, inspired by building blocks and their possible combinations. Their frames are reminiscent of robust wooden toys and lend the mirrors a graphic quality. The four sides are each designed in different hues, with two brightly colored versions and one understated model available per size. The depth of the frame makes it a useful storage shelf for small utensils, such as keys.
The Swiss-French designer Julie Richoz, born in 1990, graduated in industrial design from Lausanne University of Art and Design (ECAL) in 2012. She founded her own design studio in Paris that same year, and also worked for Pierre Charpin. She was 'Designer in Residence' at the Cité de la Céramique in Sèvres and at CIRVA, the International Research Centre for Art and Glass in Marseille, where she acquired an invaluable knowledge of these materials. Her work shows her curiosity and fascination for craftsmanship as well as her sensitivity and precision in dealing with materials. When it comes to fabrication, she sees little difference between handcrafted individual pieces and products manufactured on an industrial scale, considering it more a form of continuity. Julie Richoz lives and works in Paris, she has been collaborating with Vitra since 2023.
