This stunning range is the new RIFLESSIONI by Adele-C mirror collection designed by Marco Brunori and released earlier this year at Salone del Mobile.Milano.
Architect Marco Brunori has designed a spectacular collection of mirrors, which he describes in his own words: “Trying to use images and words to describe the personality of a mirror is anything but easy. Multiple attempts were made, none worthy of the subject itself – the crystal-clear reflection – difficult to describe, often impossible to photograph. Naive to think of taming it by shaping it through design. Its immense desire to capture the world always prevails”.
The RIFLESSIONI by Adele-C collection is made up of four mirrors. But, each one is composed of pieces that can be combined to create countless configurations and infinite reflections. The mirrors are named for their creator’s imaginary journey among Pablo Picasso, Man Ray, Kiki de Montparnasse and Marcel Duchamp.
MARCEL – A mathematical mind
Marcel expresses movement through a succession of frames that catch and hold the figure. As you pass, Marcel reflects you going back when, instead, you are going forward. Almost as if it is filming the diametrical nature deeply embedded in every choice we make. Unity in fragmentation.

PABLO – A full-front profile
Over the years, Pablo Picasso acquired a different, but clearly-defined identity. The Pablo mirror is reminiscent of his portraits, which could be defined as “full-front profiles.” The intersecting planes twist and cut the image into facets, ‘dis-integrating’ our perception of the image as a whole.

RAY – The flash of genius
The flash. As told by Marco Brunori: “At the age of two, my son doodled with a piece of chalk on the dashboard of my new car. Surprised, I asked him: “Luca, what is that?” “I drew the wind” he replied. Fifteen years go by; Luca picks up a paper model I’m working on, instinctively, he folds it; he looks at it and takes a picture with his phone. The next day he shows it to me, saying: “It’s more attractive this way.”

KIKI – Embodiment of femininity and The elegance of freedom
Kiki by Adele-C is a reflection, vulnerable, welcoming, capricious, simple but sophisticated in its constant true-false enigmas. Kiki conveys the enigma of the mirror, leaving it unanswered.
