Being cool isn’t just about style. It’s about being resilient, going with the flow and adapting to change. What does this have to do with home interiors? Your home interiors reflect your own interior and vice versa. And your home should be your sanctuary, where you can relax, chill out and find peace. And, when summer’s heat and humidity is strongest, coolness in your home keeps you comfortable. The Power of White Sometimes white gets a bad rap because of its reputed use in medical settings. When you use white in your home, however, it creates an entirely different vibe (unless you have a lab in your home). White is simple. White is fresh. White is calming. And being calm is the foundation of cool.

Manufactured in Italy by Fiam Italia and designed by Leonardo Dainelli, Reverso Modern Mirror is playful and intriguing at once featuring ironic reflection. The result of various angles of the mirrored frame, Reverso offers unique reflective perspectives through its black-tinted central mirrored surface. With two sizes to choose from, Reverso Designer Mirror is made to add drama and dimension to its surroundings.
