The Pleat Mirror, designed by Gustav Winsth for Muuto, reimagines the full-length mirror as a sculptural, architectural element. Made from mirror-polished stainless steel, it reflects its surroundings with a bold, contemporary expression, while its folded form adds depth and visual interest. The reflective surface shifts with light and space, behaving almost like a living artwork.

Cut from a single steel sheet to precise proportions, the Pleat Mirror echoes the scale of a doorway, lending presence in residential, office, or public settings. The combination of industrial materiality and soft curves creates a minimal yet commanding object, capable of interacting with its environment without overwhelming it.

The design approach of Gustav Winsth, founder of his Stockholm-based studio, begins with careful attention to process and production techniques. With a background in mechanical engineering, Winsth explores how materials and manufacturing methods can inform form, producing a design language that is both expressive and industrial. The Pleat Mirror embodies this vision, combining technical elegance with thoughtful design, transforming a functional object into a striking element that stimulates spatial perception and becomes a focal point within any environment.
