‘Sunrise’ mirror, by 15 West and Ghyczy

15 West

This Istanbul-based studio was founded

in 2015 by Begum Cemiloglu and Ekin

Varon, who met at the Rhode Island

School of Design and bonded over their

love for combining modern design with

Turkey’s cultural heritage. Now back in

their home town, the pair strive to create

beautiful interiors filled with the delicate

textures of handmade products.

Ghyczy

Netherlands-based and family-owned,

Ghyczy offers an eclectic selection

of high-quality handcrafted furniture

designs. Since its inception in 1971,

the firm has focused on innovation:

its founder Peter Ghyczy was the first

to use clamping to join glass and metal,

a much-imitated technique in the world

of high-end contemporary furniture.

A combination of Ghyczy’s innovative

craftsmanship and 15 West’s elegant

design, this sculptural mirror comprises

polished stainless steel sheets, a leather-

clad shelf and surround, and a curved

aluminium base that conceals a storage

compartment for beauty products. The

mirror’s fractured appearance is intended

to distort the user’s reflection, enjoining

them to consider their inner-self rather

than just their outward physical form.
