Decorating walls with mirrors is an excellent design choice for any barrier in the house. They not only add style but bring attention and significance to a space. Mirrors can be added to any wall in the house as long as there is a design plan in mind that will bring significance to the space.
Where to Add a Mirror Wall?
Adding a reflective surface such as a wall with mirrors will enlarge and add dimension to a dull space. This is especially true for small foyers or tight hallways. These areas tend to be neglected as they are too small for furniture, so they are typically left alone where they become empty spaces or mere photo walls.
Adding a large or even a floor-length mirror at the end of a narrow hallway will make the hallway appear larger and brighter. Similarly, adding a mirror or a collage of mirrors of different sizes to an entry will make the space seem more extensive and designer.
Types of Mirror Walls
Like anything else in home design, mirror walls can be a simple framed mirror that reflects light and adds dimension or extravagant works of art that bring attention and detail to the space they occupy. When mirroring an entire wall, mixing mirrors with other materials such as wood, tile, or exotic wall paneling can transform a wall and the space it occupies from ordinary to an extraordinary architectural piece.
Designer Mirror Walls
Applying mirrored tiles from floor to ceiling is another way of bringing style and charm to a space. Mirrors are cut into the same shape or different shapes and sizes and inserted onto the wall creating an area worthy of recognition. This is also a great way of enhancing a tight space by reflecting on the opposing wall.
The mirror effect makes the room appear larger than its actual size. Mirror walls are a definite must-have trend for creating a focal point for a dull space. Since each mirror wall is uniquely designed based on the homeowners’ design taste, it will be a one of a kind design not found in any other home. The main challenge of installing a mirror wall is coming up with a unique design that will complement your home and finding a qualified installer that can execute your idea flawlessly. A successful install should have exact drawn-out plans with accurate measurements of the mirrors and whatever other media you decide to use, and the layout design of your desired mirror wall.
