Artistically Framing Landscapes

Incorporating an exquisite design feature such as mirror wall art in your themed garden can add to its beauty. Besides being an eye-catching piece or art, it reflects the natural beauty all around and adds to the tranquillity.

Bringing the Outdoors Indoors

A carefully placed mirror can reflect the lush landscaping in the garden outside the window and bring a refreshing touch to a room. This way, you get to see the garden even when you aren’t facing it, giving the impression that you are surrounded by greenery.

Wall Art

A minimalist bathroom can get a boost with the addition of an artistic or geometric mirror frame. Besides contributing to the brightness of the room by reflecting the light, it also makes it more stylish.

Expanding Narrow Hallways

If you have a narrow passageway at the entrance to your apartment or home, placing a couple of large mirrors on the walls can make the area seem more spacious. In addition, they reflect light and banish darkness from the area, making your home appear welcoming.

Elegant Foyer

A beautifully framed mirror in the entrance foyer is classy. Additionally, it’s a perfect stop for you to check if your make up needs fixing before you greet guests or step out for a party.

Storage with a Purpose

A wooden cabinet with mirror panels on the doors is as practical as it is beautiful. The shelves within are perfect for storing books, papers or linen, while the mirror,  by reflecting the area facing it, gives the impression that the room is larger than it is.
