Mirrors

A mirror makes a space brighter and more spacious

A mirror is a rare and effective element in interior design. It adds a sense of light, expands the room and makes the whole look more well-groomed. At the same time, a mirror is practical: it helps in everyday life in the hallway, bedroom and dressing room. When you choose the size and shape of the mirror according to the space, it looks like a natural part of the interior, not an extraneous addition.

The placement of a mirror has more impact than many people think. When placed in the right place, it reflects light and creates extra space for the eye. When placed in the wrong place, it can reflect unease or just show the wall surface. That's why it's worth thinking about what you want to do with the mirror first: add light, check your outfit, or highlight the interior.

Choose a mirror according to its purpose

Practical hallway mirror

A wall mirror is almost a must in a hallway. It makes it easier to leave and makes the space brighter, especially if there is little natural light. A full-length mirror works when you want to see your outfit as a whole, and a wide wall mirror adds to the feeling of space. If there is a counter or storage unit in the hallway, a table mirror will naturally sit on top of it.

Full-length mirror for bedroom and dressing room

In the bedroom, a mirror is practical when placed near a wardrobe or dressing area. A full-length mirror can be wall-mounted or floor-standing. A floor mirror is flexible if you want to move the mirror or don't want to drill into the wall. If you are building a storage and dressing area, wardrobes also support the same need.

For the living room: a mirror as a decorative element

In the living room, a mirror often acts as a “lightener” of the interior. It can balance a large wall surface and reflect light into an area that would otherwise be dark. A mirror looks great, for example, above a dresser or side table, if you want to create a cohesive wall ensemble.

Shape, size and frame: round, rectangular and curved

A round mirror softens the lines

A round mirror brings softness to a space and is particularly suitable for hallway and bathroom-style interiors, but also works in the living room. It is a good counterbalance to straight rows of furniture and clear lines.

Rectangle and full body for practicality

A rectangular mirror is a surefire choice when you want a clear and functional whole. A full-length mirror requires space in terms of height, but it makes everyday life easier and shows your outfit at a glance. A narrow and tall model that doesn't take up too much wall width is often suitable for a narrow space.

Frame and color: black, white, gold and wood

The frame defines the character of the mirror. A black frame adds contrast and graphicness. White blends in lightly with the wall surface. Gold and brass add warmth and a bit of festivity if the rest of the interior is calm. Wood and oak soften the look and go well with natural materials. Choose a frame that echoes other surfaces or metallic tones in the room.

How to get the most out of your mirror

It is best to position a mirror so that it reflects light, not distraction. A mirror opposite a window increases the feeling of natural light, but too direct a position can also be dazzling in certain situations. A functional solution is often a side reflection, which brings light into the depth of the room.

Lighting is important. A mirror looks better when there is a soft spot of light near it. This is where wall lamps and table lamps can do a surprising amount if you want to finish off the area around the mirror.

Frequently asked questions about mirrors

What size mirror should you choose for your hallway?

You should choose a mirror for your hallway depending on whether you want to see your entire outfit or whether a general “last look” is enough. The direct answer is that a full-length mirror is the most practical if there is space, because it serves the purpose best in everyday life. A wide wall mirror can be the most functional for a small hallway, because it increases the feeling of space and reflects light. Measure the wall surface and make sure that the mirror does not block the passage or the opening of the door. When the size is in proportion to the space, the mirror looks natural as part of the interior.

Where should you place a mirror to increase light?

It is a good idea to place the mirror where it reflects natural light or the soft light of a lamp into the room. The straightforward answer is that a mirror works best when it does not simply reflect a blank wall or a restless view. Being close to a window or having a side reflection of the window often increases the feeling of light more evenly than being placed completely opposite. Also consider where the mirror will be viewed from: in a hallway it serves as a starting point, in a living room it can expand the space.

Round or rectangular: which works better in interior design?

A round mirror works better if you want to soften the lines of the space and bring lightness to the interior. A rectangular mirror, on the other hand, is practical and clear, especially as a full-length mirror and in dressing rooms. The direct answer is that the choice depends on whether you are looking for a design element or a mirror that is as functional as possible for everyday use. A round model is often suitable for hallways and living rooms as a decorative point, while a rectangular one is a sure choice for rooms where the mirror is used a lot. When the shape repeats the other lines of the room, the whole feels unified.
