Mirror

Description

Squarable Lune is a full-length mirror defined by a bold, graphic composition of two intersecting circles and a square. Its form reveals the simplicity and quiet magic of plane geometry, while alluding to the mathematical impossibility of “squaring the circle”. The intersecting shapes create soft, wholesome crescents, or lunes, set in contrast to the firmer geometry of the square.
