Insights of Choosing the Best Bathroom Mirror

This important element of the functionality of the bathroom must be selected according to strict rules. We, of course, do not know what exactly your ideal mirror looks like, but we can suggest simple principles for searching and selecting.

It is important to consider every detail from the dimensions of the room to the properties of the mirror. You are lucky because with today’s article we will try to make the selection process as easy as possible for you.

Let’s start with the dimensions of the mirror

From a purely aesthetic and practical point of view, a mirror should be chosen according to needs. If you need a big one, take a big one. If the mirror should be small or with an additional magnifying glass, take just that. But there is another important nuance regarding the perception of the room.

The size of the mirror must be selected. Based on the size of the room. Visually, the mirror surface should play on the advantages of the proportions of the room, and not spoil them. So, it is better to take an option proportional to the area. In small rooms, choose a horizontally elongated mirror, it will help reduce the effect of the well and stretch the room horizontally.

If the wall under the mirror is wide enough and you have a contrasting elongated cabinet with a sink, it is better to choose a vertical mirror. For convenience, you can hang two next to each other if there is a need for a large reflective canvas.

Functionality

Quite often people prefer to choose functional mirrors. They are connected to a hanging cabinet or shelf, and thus it becomes easy to store various personal care items.

We are skeptical about this kind of furniture because purely by their design, such mirrors do not look very attractive. It is better to foresee and design the storage system in the bathroom, but to use a mirror that is ideal in terms of design. In addition, hanging cabinet mirrors are usually small.

Yet they have the advantage of saving space and maximum ease of use. Such a mirror can be hung temporarily until you make a quality repair with a design project, but you need to store soap and toothbrushes somewhere.

This also includes the functionality of the backlight. The light in the bathroom is extremely important because we are talking about our beauty and grooming. We support the illumination integrated into the design of the mirror, but it can also be separated from the surface.

The integrated backlight makes circular lighting, it is full and you will not see shadows on your own face when washing. If you use sconces or pendant lights (which can be incredibly stylish and beautiful), then there is a risk of shadows, albeit a small one.

When choosing a mirror for the bathroom, always keep in mind your own convenience, but also don’t forget about both the purely aesthetic and practical aspects of the issue. In fact, the design of the mirror is the last resort in its selection, when and how you need to start with the functionality. Do you need lighting, how important are the service life of the mirror and its frame to you? These questions need to be answered first!
