A mirror is more than something you use to check your reflection. The right mirror can make a room feel brighter, bigger and beautifully put together.
But with so many shapes, sizes and styles available, how do you choose the right one? Here’s a simple guide to finding the perfect mirror for every room in your home.
Entrance Hall: Make a Great First Impression
Your entrance sets the tone for the rest of your home, making it the perfect place for a statement mirror.
Try a round, arched or irregular-shaped mirror above a console table to create an inviting focal point. For a warmer, more natural look, a wooden frame can bring beautiful texture into the space.
Style tip: Pair your mirror with a lamp, vase or greenery, but keep the area uncluttered so the mirror remains the star.
Living Room: Create Light & Space
A large mirror can completely transform a living room. Positioning one where it can reflect natural light helps make the room feel brighter and more spacious.
For larger walls, consider an oversized or leaning mirror. Round and irregular mirrors are great when you want to soften straight lines and add a more contemporary feel.
Style tip: Let your mirror reflect something worth looking at – a window, beautiful artwork or your favourite part of the room.
Bedroom: Beauty Meets Function
The bedroom is one of the best places for a full-length or leaning mirror.
Not only is it practical when getting ready, but a larger mirror can also add depth and elegance to the room. Choose a frame finish that complements your furniture and overall colour palette.
Bathroom: Keep It Clean & Contemporary
In the bathroom, your mirror needs to be both practical and stylish.
A classic framed mirror creates a timeless look, while an LED mirror is perfect for a modern bathroom. Built-in lighting also makes everyday routines that little bit easier.
For smaller bathrooms, keeping the frame simple can help the room feel more open.
Dining Room: Add a Touch of Elegance
Mirrors work beautifully in dining areas, especially when positioned above a sideboard or console.
A statement mirror can reflect lighting and décor, adding warmth and atmosphere to the room. Gold frames can introduce a more luxurious feel, while black frames create a clean, contemporary finish.
Small Spaces: Think Bigger
Don't assume a small room needs a small mirror.
A larger mirror can actually make a compact space feel bigger by reflecting more light and creating a greater sense of depth. This works particularly well in apartments, narrow passages and smaller entrance halls.
Find Your Perfect Match
When choosing your mirror, consider three things: size, shape and frame finish.
Your mirror should complement the room without overwhelming it – but don't be afraid to make it a statement piece.
