Mirror plates arranged at every angle,
Create brilliance, a collage of reflected images.



Regarding "MIRAGE," Yoshioka explains: "This unique connecting structure, specialized for modularity, allows it to be angled in various ways and configured into several designs. Each module has a glossy finish reminiscent of traditional mirror craftsmanship, expressing a fusion of modernity and tradition. It also appears sculptural, and is an innovative interpretation with subtlety and playfulness towards traditional furniture."

LEMA was founded in Northern Italy in the 1950s by Mr. Lemoni, a furniture craftsman, to produce more avant-garde and modern home furnishings. In 1994, the company appointed world-renowned designer Piero Lissoni as its art director, and has since introduced furniture that is both cutting-edge and simple, yet highly functional.
