TAFLA O5 is one of a series of bionic mirrors with organic shapes inspired by the natural forms of liquid drops. Mirrors from the TAFLA collection are made of polished stainless steel with a high gloss finish and come in seven different sizes. They can be arranged in an artistic, personalized composition or displayed on a wall as a standalone sculpture-like mirror. They are suitable for contemporary private spaces, as well as restaurants, bars, and hotel rooms. You can enjoy the charm of the classic Inox finish or choose a color from the available palette. The TAFLA O5 mirror looks mesmerizing as a single piece, but also when arranged in layouts that form constellations.
TAFLA O mirrors combine unique forms and bionic aesthetics with the high-tech parameters of Inox steel.

OSKAR ZIĘTA is an architect, artist, and process designer, and the CEO of Zieta Studio. He holds a doctorate from the Eidgenössische Technische Hochschule in Zürich, where he worked as a research assistant at the department of CAAD (Computer Aided Architectural Design). At ETH and as part of his own company, founded in 2010, he carried out research, development, and implementation of steel stabilization technologies such as FIDU and 3+.

Author of the iconic PLOPP stool (2008) and other inflated steel projects on the verge between sculpture and functional objects.
Zięta began experimenting with site-specific sculptures designed using the parametric design methodology in 2006 with his Seahorse. However, it was not until 2010 that he created his first larger-scale works: the formally different but structurally familiar Architonic Concept Space and The Blow & Roll installation for the Victoria & Albert Museum. Since then, he has continually experimented with scale and form, as well as with the social and aesthetic potential of steel sculptures. Oskar Zięta is also the creator of the tallest sculpture in public space in Poland, WIR (Galeria Północna, Warsaw 2017), as well as NAWA, a pavilion sculpture (Daliowa Island, Wrocław 2017), which contributed to revitalizing the surrounding urban space. In 2019, NAWA was nominated for the prestigious European Union Prize for Contemporary Architecture – Mies van der Rohe Award.

Oskar Zięta’s creative activity has been repeatedly awarded the most important awards in the field of design, including the Designpreis der Bundesrepublik Deutschland Award, Red Dot and Audi Mentor Preis, as well as a nomination for the Schweizer Design Preis. Zięta collaborated with brands such as Audi, Architonic, Ballantine’s, Pirelli, Victoria & Albert Museum, among others.
