5 ways to integrate mirrors into your décor
Whether large, small, round, oval, square or rectangular, mirrors embellish every room in our living environments. Here’s a close-up of how to creatively use this trendy item…
1. Visually enlarge a small space
Cleverly arranged in an entrance or a small space, mirrors provide an impression of grandeur. Opt for a vertical mirror placed on the floor to create depth. Or a round, or wide one to double the area of a room.
2. Brighten the space
If hung facing a window or under a light, a mirror completely changes the atmosphere of a room. Sometimes illuminating it. Sometimes adding a dramatic look, like a work of art, in a space that may be as dark as a hallway.
3. Create an optical illusion
Reflecting what lies before it, a mirror can turn into a surprising visual illusion. Create a skylight or a second window in a dining room or living room.
4. Play with volume and perspectives
Displayed together for an « infinite » look, or occupying the entire space of a wall, mirrors multiply the square footage of your space, creating links between rooms, or ingeniously defining them.
5. Revitalize the décor of a room
For a dramatic result, combine mirrors of similar styles or colours that blend well with your furniture and fabrics. Mirrors add a touch of fantasy and design, while brightening the rest of your décor.
