The Makio Hasuike Gedy vanity box produced in Italy during the 1970s represents a refined example of Italian industrial design applied to everyday domestic objects.
Designed by Makio Hasuike for the Italian manufacturer Gedy, the piece reflects the designer’s characteristic approach: rational geometry, functional clarity and carefully balanced proportions. The object takes the form of a square storage box made of beige molded plastic, integrating a hinged lid with an internal mirror that transforms the container into a compact vanity station.
Makio Hasuike was one of the most influential industrial designers working in Italy during the late twentieth century. His work often focused on the redesign of everyday accessories through minimalist forms and efficient production methods. In this Makio Hasuike Gedy vanity box, the clean geometry and restrained materials illustrate the designer’s ability to turn practical objects into discreet yet sophisticated design elements.
When closed, the box appears as a simple geometric volume. Once opened, it reveals a mirrored lid and a generous interior compartment suitable for cosmetics, jewelry or personal accessories.
Objects such as this demonstrate how Italian designers of the 1970s integrated modernist principles into daily life, creating accessories that combine utility with a clear architectural presence. For related pieces from the same period, explore our curated selection of Space Age Icons.
