Malcolm Lewis Mirror 2

"LAVA MIRROR" : YOU'VE NEVER SEEN LINE-X USED LIKE THIS

It's not your typical mirror. This unique frame was created by UK artist Malcolm Lewis. He is known for designing incredible handmade pieces of furniture and interior features. All Malcolm's designs are completely bespoke, no two pieces are the same.

For this piece, Malcolm wanted to create a new look; to craft something in a way that he had never attempted before. 

While searching for inspiration Malcolm came across a YouTube video showing LINE-X being sprayed onto a work van. That was it - a versatile surface coating that could give his design a curious and distinctive finish. Malcolm reached out to his local LINE-X shop in Darlington, UK to see if they would be willing to experiment coating his wooden frames. LINE-X owner Mike Jemmett was happy to assist. 


“The effect was like lava,” said Malcolm. Loving the faux-lava frame, Malcolm created a limited-edition series of Volcanic Lava Oak Mirrors.

The frames are on display at the Biscuit Factory Gallery, the UK’s largest independent contemporary art, craft and design gallery located in Newcastle upon Tyne, UK. http://www.thebiscuitfactory.c...


Malcolm Lewis is a self-taught designer and artist. His passion for art and design developed into a love for crafting designs from wood which inspired him to hone his craft to enable the conversion of his design creations into beautiful interior pieces combining art with function.
