THE KNIFE THROWER MIRROR
Designed by Nicola Gisonda
The mirror that unites two opposing worlds in a suggestive element.
DESIGNER
NICOLA GISONDA
Clear and rigorous lines are his distinctive feature, the common thread that makes all his projects recognizable.
Structure and matter are the protagonists and the interest for the properties and potential of the individual materials is accompanied by the ability to engineer the project and conceive the idea having in mind every phase of its realization, in a perfect synthesis of form and function.
The interweaving of these themes flows into his works of architecture and design, never disconnected from the context and the sensations that surround him.
Born and raised in Milan, he graduated in architecture at the Politecnico.His work ranges from architectural projects to industrial design, from concepts for public spaces to interior furnishings.
After several years of planning in the field of residential construction, in the last fifteen years he dedicated himself in particular to the redevelopment of abandoned industrial areas, seizing the needs of a city, that of Milan, which was beginning its transformation.
Among his most famous works in this field are the Officine del Volo. For Lando Gisonda, he designed and coordinated the development of the Craquelé table, the Corsia chair and the The knife thrower mirror.

THE GLITTERING ESSENCE
The details, backlit by warm light LEDs, are made using extra-clear crystal sheets with heads finished at 45° or 90°. Creating a suggestive effect, they allow this design element to not only be a mirror, but also a furnishing accessory that leans against the wall at an angle of 5°.

THE ARTISANAL SOUL
To enhance the absolute lines of the design, THE KNIFE THROWER features a structure, base and back, in solid wood which incorporates and protects the reflective surface. The wood is used in high thickness, in a single piece and with refined surface finishes to enhance the peculiar characteristics of walnut and oak.
DETAIL
The traditional wall mirror is revisited and given a new meaning. The circus world, with its tricks and performances, merges with the everyday environment through THE KNIFE THROWER. Slabs of extra-clear crystal are inserted perpendicular into the reflecting surface as if they were knives thrown around a human figure. Backlit by warm light LEDs, the details that scratch the mirror create an evocative effect, bringing to mind the thrills of a juggling performance..
