Created by renowned designer Philippe Starck for Fiam, Caadre is a very large 195cm-long mirror, designed to be fixed to the wall or placed on the floor, by leaning it delicately against the wall. A contemporary classic, it's inspired by the mirrors found in ballrooms. Framed by four 6mm-thick curved glass elements that subtly reflect light, Caadre mirror elegantly turns heads in bedrooms or living rooms, just like a sculpture.

Born in Paris in 1949, Philippe Starck is one of today's most original and prolific designers. Philippe Starck has become a hallowed figure of international design. A self-proclaimed "autodidact" after a spell at the Camondo school, he was already a company director even before he came of age. An inspired Jack-of-all-trades, he has no hesitation in revisiting the styles and icons of the past. While he regularly works in the world of luxury, he is also credited with democratising design. He has worked extensively with a wide range of industrial partners, particularly furniture manufacturers such as Cassina, Driade and Kartell. The Mademoiselle bridge combines an airy polycarbonate structure with a comfortable seat in polyurethane upholstered in fabrics emblematic of various Italian designers (Missoni, D&G and Valentino). He won major prizes such as the Grand Prix National de la Création industrielle and the Honor Award from the American Institute of Architects. Philippe Starck describes himself as "a Japanese architect, an American set designer, a German industrial designer, a French art director and an Italian furniture designer". He also works with lighting and tableware manufacturers such as Baccarat and Flos on the KTribe collection.

FIAM
Fiam Italia is an iconic brand in the design world, known for its unique ability to transform glass, an apparently unalterable material, into both an artistic and functional form of expression. For over 50 years, Fiam has pushed the limits of the material to create innovative interior design objects, combining craftsmanship traditions with cutting-edge technologies. The brand stands out for its "lateral" vision of glass: a material often perceived as rigid and transparent, but one that Fiam shapes with boldness and creativity. By using glass in its liquid and malleable state, Fiam breaks conventions and redefines its properties, offering a new aesthetic and technical dimension to exceptional furniture pieces.
