Urban Mirror, available in two versions, is composed of monolithic elements made of HPC (High Performance Concrete) and a steel sheet structure that serves as a frame for a stainless steel panel with a mirror finish. It embodies the ability of reflective surfaces to create innovative social languages and makes the mirror - that has always been a fundamental indoor design object - a “key” element for outdoor environments. Urban Mirror is designed not only to amplify the architectural or natural beauty of the surrounding places, but also to bring new energy and promote interaction and freedom of expression, transforming traditional places into meeting points and making the urban space a “stage” for street artists, local events and sports workouts.
