The Como by Glas Italia, designed by Barber & Osgerby, is a mirror that plays with light and transformation. Its solid brass frame shines like a jewel, while the side panels open and close elegantly, revealing secret reflections. When closed, it becomes a precious treasure chest of opaque and lacquered surfaces, suspended between functionality and poetry.

Edward Barber and Jay Osgerby founded their eponymous studio in 1996 after graduating with a Masters in Architecture from the Royal College of Art in London. Much of Barber and Osgerby's early work involved the folding and shaping of sheet material, influenced by the blank paper they had frequently used in architectural model making.
