Mirror Line’s Nivo storage system consists of modules. It is easy to modify the storage system by rearranging the parts of the product. Nivo is a home storage solution that transforms according to need. The storage system is timeless, yet represents a personal style. Nivo’s functionality and clear design language bring harmony to the interior and help things find their place.
Adaptability in terms of both dimensions and materials enables Nivo to be installed for various spaces of the home. Nivo is suitable for wardrobes, bedrooms, hallways, and for storing items in the living room. Because of the modularity, the possibilities are practically limitless.
“We wanted to design a lighter alternative alongside our custom storage systems. Although custom is characteristic of us, we felt it necessary to bring a new kind of modularity and design to the market in order to meet the various wishes of our customers.”
Laura Saaranluomaa, Head of Development Mirror Line
DESIGN PROCESS & PRODUCTION
Sketching
The sketching is usually done by hand and is based on creative thinking and ideation. We like to consider many options and make a lot of drawings first and then narrow down the options to find the best idea concept.
3D modeling
In 3D modeling, the shapes and exact details of the product can be precisely defined with the help of editable 3D models. We use our own 3D printer to create models of product concepts, which can be used to show how the different features of the product actually look and feel like.
Image rendering
Before a product really exists, we can create rendered images by 3D modeling and rendering the product concept. This way the customer can see how the finished product would look before the first prototype is created.
Production
Nivo is manufactured at the Mirror Line factory in Karijoki, Finland. The steel parts of the storage system are also manufactured in Finland. Responsibility is an important value at Mirror Line, so in addition to elegance and adaptability, the design has focused on quality and durability.
