in the ‘PairofMirrors’ collection, nir meiri studio has designed the objects to stand vertically with reflective surfaces positioned one above the other — creating unusal and innovative configurations. furthermore, the mirrors are positioned in two different angles to create various perspectives for the viewers all at the same time.

combining stone, metal and glass, the objects strike the viewer with the choice of colors, clear-cut geometries and textures. indeed, to emphasize each item’s framework, the collection offers two colored versions — either with a greystone or redstone structural base.

on the other hand, for the occasion of salone del mobile 2016, nilufar gallery and nir meiri studio have launched a limited edition of the ‘black swan’ floor lamp. created with metal and plastic, this lighting furniture focuses on the aesthetics of motion and flexibility.

for this collection, the final design is influenced by the close observation of a black swan’s distinct motion. indeed, the flexibility of the lamps at the light fixtures imitates the movement of that particular animal when tilting its head — creating a natural flow which is also reflected in the projection of light.
