fanfan dressing table by violane d'harcourt

Fanfan is a contemporary dressing table standing on two feet.

violane d’harcourt has reframed and recontextualized the dressing table with ‘fanfan.’ a composition of beech, laquered steel and variously sized mirrors, the dresser is optimal for a variety of standing and sitting positions. a central ball joint and wall-dependent installation allow the furniture to fit a variety of spaces while remaining directionally adaptable. the reliance of the dressing table on existing architecture is part of an overall vision of flexibility between user and object. a large mirror is adapted for usage in standing positions, while a smaller one, informed by the scale of a rearview mirror, is optimal for seated positions.  

its dimensions are 163 cm height and 40 cm width

the high mirror is made to be used when standing up

the small mirror is fixed with a ball joint that reclines in any direction

practical and easily mobile
