The wonderful world of mirrors, we all love them when it comes to interiors and for so many reasons. Mirrors can enhance your space in many ways; it just depends on how you use it. Some great ideas on how to make your space look longer, larger or wider are below with the use of wall, or floor mirrors, large or small.
If it is style, elegance, grace and opulence that you want to achieve then mirrors are one of the most ideal decorative pieces you can use. They can add a more appealing look to your home. Venetian mirrors help to achieve that vintage, aged looked to your space, while for an ultra modern home you can have your TV turn into a mirror once it is switched off, turning your interiors from functional to fashionable within seconds.
Mirrors are a stylish touch to any interior, and are an easy and simple wall decoration if you are not one who favours artwork.
The use of mirrors in the hallway can really open up the area and make a narrow space look wider. We want to make the space feel larger by incorporating the mirror on one of the walls. Which one? Usually select the longest of the three walls. We do this to help balance the space by counteracting the elongated feeling with the reflection of light increasing the perceived width.
For a hallway mirror, using a mirror for an entire wall is not practical and would be very expensive, however using a series of mirrors opposite doorways or windows will have the desired effect.
Floor mirrors are one of the most recent trends for interiors. They show opulence due to the size, and most times the bigger the better. They are meant to stand out, be the centre piece and be placed in a space where it can reflect light to enhance the room. If placed else where they are fantastic show pieces and dressed with a designer like chair by its side, a side table and candles, they can really set the scene.
When styling your home especially with a vintage feel, a mirror can tell the whole story. De stressed mirrors have a stylish way of aging your home without dating your house style.
The shape of your mirror will also help accentuate the style of your home. Some particular shapes work really work with different interior styles, round is perfect for nautical, antique gold or brass frames with a creative shape help to provide elegance and an opulent look for an older era or most sophisticated look you are trying to achieve.
Modern sharp shapes are appropriately used in contemporary homes and ultra modern looks. The use of mirrors can be more then just a wall hung, or floor mirror. Looking outside the square and even through commercial interior magazines can give you some interesting ideas as per some of the below. We love the use of mirrors to create a feature wall, a talking point and a creative way to use mirrors in interiors.
