The TAFLA mirrors from Zieta Studio are created through the innovative FiDU technology, where metal is freely deformed under internal pressure. The result is objects of great strength and a fine, subtle structure at the same time. Like the studio's first mirrors, TAFLA is also monomaterial and made entirely of stainless steel – an expression of the pure power and magic of steel.
The TAFLA C series interprets the water drop in an avant-garde way. Its objects possess striking, unmistakable contours created by the free deformation of the metal. The irregular edges make each piece unique and transform the mirrors into narratives about reflections – arranged individually or in constellations.
The production is based on Oskar Zięta's research into metal deformation. Two thin, laser-cut stainless steel plates are precisely welded and then inflated with compressed air. Through this volumetric expansion, TAFLA C obtains its final three-dimensional shape with characteristic deformations at the edges.
Technical Details
Zieta Studio is a design studio that shapes metal in an innovative way. Using its proprietary FiDU technology, the team "inflates" flat metal parts, creating lightweight, stable, and unique objects. Art, technology, and material research are closely intertwined in this process. The studio emphasizes sustainable work, uses durable metals, and produces many of its objects from a single material. This results in furniture and sculptures that are modern, characterful, and functional all at once.
Good quality. There are small scratches and a dent on the mirror surface very at the side, which are not so noticeable, however.
