Mirrors are to decoration what jewelery is to a nice outfit: an important complement!

With the trend towards XXL formats, mirrors bring more than ever amplitude to the room and create interesting reflections while allowing the light to move.

A sense of space: in addition to its utilitarian aspect, a wall or standing mirror reflects light and creates the impression of a breakthrough in the wall.

A mirror for every room: essential in the bathroom, shower room and bedroom, very useful in the entrance hall, the mirror becomes decorative in the living room or dining room. Two winning ideas: place it above the dining room buffet to create a reflection of abundance, and install it in the living room to reflect the light (and the view, if there is a view!). windows.

Different trends: this year we see many mirrors with wavy or organic shapes reminiscent of Salvador Dali’s paintings. Antique mirrors and large format mirrors are also very fashionable.

Different styles: it is the framing that gives the mirror its style. When surrounded by an interesting material, it becomes a decorative element in itself.

A decorative project at a low price: for a nice mirror at a low price, don’t hesitate to transform the frame with metallic paint, chalk paint, an old patina effect, etc. It’s an easy decorating project to do.

Tips for small rooms: in a bathroom or go inwe ensure that the mirror is placed facing natural light and that another mirror surface multiplies the reflections to infinity.

Some decorating tips:

  • As with a painting, we place a functional mirror at eye level, corresponding to approx. 1.70 m from the ground.
  • The mirror allows you to enlarge a small room and brighten up our interior.
  • Pay attention to the weight of the mirror: you must make sure to choose a mount adapted to the wall.
  • A mirror placed on the floor gives depth and an informal side.
  • Above the fireplace, the mirror is a classic. You can place a pretty vase in front with flowers or branches reflected in it.
