Transcience Mirrors

 

Transience Mirrors, designed by Lex Pott and David Derksen, reveal different states of oxidation through an accelerated process. The roughness of the oxidation and the clean geometric lines make each mirror truly unique and beautiful.

Over time dark spots start to appear on mirrors. The silver layer is slowly oxidizing under the influence of oxygen and water, thereby showing some of its history. This process can be regarded as degradation, however this project shows the beauty of this material transition of silver.
