Studio 7.5, the design studio responsible for Mirra 2, describe the revolutionary design process as "taking something that is good and making it better." Mirra 2 is leaner, lighter and even more responsive than its predecessor.
So what exactly is different?
1. It moves with you - Mirra 2's flexible and responsive design moves with your body and mirrors your motions in and around your office. These motions include working at your desk, turning and reaching to the file cabinet, and turning fully around to gossip with your colleague. For all the movements throughout your workday, Mirra 2 has your back.

It's lean - Offering an even slimmer design than the original Mirra, Mirra 2 is beautiful and airy to look at and barely inhabits a profile. It's also made with less materials - it's 10 pounds lighter! This reduces its carbon footprint by approximately 25%, making Mirra 2 even more friendly and responsible to the earth.
