Broken Series consists of broken mirror, broken square mirror, and broken bench. Each item is available in three colors: Grey, black (limited edition of 77), and white (limited edition of 77).Broken mirror is a mirror born from the encounter between Gufram and New York Snarkitecture studio (founded by Daniel Arsham and Alex Mustonen). The reflecting surface is surrounded by a frame of soft polyurethane, a direct reference to Gufram's material par excellence; this creates an alienating optical effect as if the room opened up on the outside world or another environment. The polyurethane framing the mirror is rough-hewn entirely by hand; for this reason, each broken mirror piece is slightly different from another, and it is thus a unique item. The Broken bench, an irregular slab of “soft concrete” in polyurethane, seems to be the part missing from the large Broken Mirror, and just like the other pieces of the collection plays with the “short-circuit” between the actual softness of the material and its appearance. An unusual addition both for domestic and public spaces, the bench is supported by beams in a highly resistant plastic agglomerate which highlights the piece’s industrial look.Materials: Irregular slab in soft polyurethane hand finished with Guflac, supported by beams in a highly resistant plastic agglomerate. Dimensions: 43 H x 190 W x 70 D cm.
