About this Design:
We use mirror extensively in our projects to add elegance, depth and drama.  In this project we designed a large mirror for the vanity area of a master bedroom suite.  We created a frame to give the mirror an object-like quality which echoes the detailing of the stone and other architectural elements.  The mirror is enclosed in a custom-made nickel frame with small mirror segments on the sides.  The mirror in this project is both modern and timeless; it reflects the abstract qualities of the space and accentuates the daylight that filters in through the windows.

About this Design:
The goal of the mirror installation in the Yoga Studio bathrooms was to take the ordinary requirement for a bathroom mirror and transform it into an element that creates wonder and curiosity.  The "floating" beveled oval mirror catches the user's attention from the hallway.  The user's image seems to float within the reflective beveled edge.  The translucent background provides and earthly glow around the mirror that contributes to the "floating" image effect and naturally lights the user's face.  The mirror is supported by thin aircraft cables which are barely visible with the background glow.

The Awards...
The Mirrorlink.org Design Awards recognize excellence in the design and installation of mirror. The reflective quality of mirrors can expand apparent interior space, brighten interiors with reflected light, highlight accessories through multiple reflections, or enhance architectural details. To increase the diversity of the entries, all designs are judged according to their residential or commercial application.

Judging Criteria
Judging is based on how the mirror application enhances the architecture and aesthetic appeal of the design.
