Bring the Whimsical Outdoors Inside! Invite these lovely butterflies into your room where they will rest in your wall after a long day, in exchange for holding your everyday items like coats, hats and scarves in your wall after you come home. When paired with the Bice Mirror you create an effect where they seem to be coming out from the mirror and into your room by extending beyond the mirror's dimensions.

Designer:
Roberto Mora 2012
Designer Roberto Mora specializes in Radical Design, a movement that emerged in Italy in the 1960's that goes against "Good Design". His inspiration lies in giving a new life to metals that can be recycled or better said "Upcycled" meaning to transform a product into a greater quality one.
Designer Inspiration:
This design was inspired by XVI Century painting "Jupiter, Mercury and Virtue" by Dosso Dossi, Men's butterfly bow ties, and 1991 Thriller/Horror movie "The Silence of the Lambs" from the Hannibal Lecter Film Series.
