Frequently Asked Questions

Who designed the Randaccio Wall Mirror and when?

Gio Ponti designed the Randaccio mirror in 1925 for his own apartment on Via Randaccio in Milan. It is considered one of his earliest surviving interior design objects and a direct window into his personal aesthetic at the outset of his career.

What sizes is the GUBI Randaccio mirror available in?

The Randaccio Wall Mirror is available in three sizes, allowing it to be scaled appropriately for different wall proportions, from intimate dressing spaces to more generous hallway or bathroom walls.

How does the Randaccio mirror fit into a contemporary interior?

Ponti's design language blends geometric precision with decorative wit, which gives the Randaccio a quality of cultural weight without visual heaviness. It reads clearly in both classically furnished rooms and spare, modernist settings.

Is the GUBI Randaccio an authorized reissue of the original design?

Yes. GUBI produced the Randaccio Wall Mirror in collaboration with the Gio Ponti archives, maintaining fidelity to the original proportions and detailing established in the 1925 design.

What design movement does Gio Ponti represent?

Ponti is broadly associated with Italian modernism, though his work consistently resisted strict categorization. He moved fluidly between rationalist architecture, decorative arts, and industrial design across a career spanning more than five decades, founding Domus magazine in 1928 and shaping Italian design culture internationally.
