Placing a mirror across from a light source – either a window or a lamp – will enhance its brightness. It’s a great trick for rooms that don’t get much natural light.
Besides size and shape, the style of your mirror impacts how the mirror presents itself on any wall. When considering style, the type of frame and its material are important.
Mirror frames are often made of wood or metal, but some are made of tiles, glass, or mosaic pieces. When deciding on a mirror style, take a look at your space and choose a mirror that complements the style of the room.
Best mirror shapes by room:
* Bathroom: Rectangular, oval, square
* Living room: Geometric, cluster, rectangular
* Bedroom or office: Geometric, cluster, rectangular
* Dining room: Geometric, round, square, rectangular, cluster
* Foyer: cluster, rectangular
