About Point 壁掛鏡

呢款壁掛鏡係圍繞住一個固定嘅懸掛部件嚟設計,呢個部件同時塑造咗佢嘅結構同構圖。設計唔係將安裝機構收埋,而係將呢個部件保留喺結構之中,令佢清晰可見。木框由一個壁掛部件懸吊住,並透過一個圓形細節連接。呢種結構手法令安裝過程簡單直接,同時保持咗形態、結構同功能之間清晰嘅關係,使一個必要嘅安裝部件成為設計嘅一部分。

Unique Properties
Point is a mirror design mounted to the wall through a single fixed point. The hanging mechanism, traditionally concealed, is placed at the center of the design and made visible. The solid wood frame is suspended from a single wall-mounted element and remains balanced and stable through a circular connecting component. This system simplifies installation and turns the structural detail into a defining element of the design.
Dimensions & Packaging
Product dimensions: 1200 mm (H) × 540 mm (W) × 115 mm (D). The frame is made from solid walnut and includes a droplet-shaped inner cutout. For shipping, the mirror is packaged in a protective box sized approx. 1300 mm × 620 mm × 195 mm, including foam padding and structural corner protectors to prevent breakage.

Production Technology
The frame is CNC-milled from solid walnut and hand-finished with natural oil. The mirror surface is laser-cut to fit the inner contour, including a droplet-shaped opening for modular hanging. It features a wall-mounted base, a sliding frame system, and a locking wood peg. The mirror is bonded into the frame using adhesive for seamless integration.
Design Challenge
The biggest challenge in the design process was cutting the mirror into a precise, non-standard shape that fit perfectly with the frame. This required a level of precision beyond standard methods. The issue was resolved by using high-precision CNC laser cutting technology.
Research
This qualitative research focused on existing mounting methods in similar product groups. The aim was to provide a seamless installation experience. The process included research, sketching, 3D modeling, rendering, mock-up production, and prototyping. The final mounting system stood out with its ease of use and became a design element, offering a fresh and innovative perspective.
Inspiration
The starting point of this design was to bring a commonly overlooked element to the center of the design process. The idea that the hanging mechanism could play an active role within the product, rather than remaining a purely technical detail, shaped this approach. User difficulties during installation—such as achieving correct alignment and drilling multiple holes—were identified as a key problem. Point responds to these challenges with a simple, functional, and structural solution.
Project Duration
The project was designed in 2024 in Istanbul and was exhibited in September 2025 at the "New Horizon" exhibition during Furnishings and Design Istanbul (FDI).
Operation Flow
The mirror is easily mounted by sliding the frame onto a wall-fixed base through its central cut-out, then locked with a small round wooden peg. This tool-free system offers effortless installation and a unique sense of comfort. Its clean form complements its ease of use, enhancing the spatial value of any interior it enters.
