Size, Shape, and Style: A Quick Look At Every Type of Mirror
Mirrors are more than just practical pieces—they shape the feel of a space, enhance natural light, and add a stylish focal point. Whether you are looking for a statement piece or something to elevate your everyday routine, the right size, shape, and style can transform your home. Let’s break down the essentials to help you find the perfect fit for your space.
Rectangle + Square Mirrors
Classic and versatile, these shapes provide clean lines and structure, perfect for creating symmetry and balance in any room. They can range from small mirrors to large mirrors and will impact your space accordingly. Although not distinct in shape, unique materials such as burl wood or acid-wash glass can make linear designs stand out as decorative mirrors.
Round + Oval Mirrors
With a softer profile, these mirrors break up harsh angles, adding a touch of elegance and fluidity to the space. Round mirrors are always chic but we’re also loving the more modern takes on oval mirrors like this Idris Oval Mirror. For an even more artful edge, explore organic silhouettes like our Puddle Mirror by Sarah Sherman Samuel.
Arched + Curved Mirrors
Arched and curved mirrors introduce architectural interest, lending a graceful, eye-catching focal point that softens the overall design. If you like a soft profile but are looking for a grander scale or more balanced impact, consider an arched mirror—the Idris Full Length Mirror offers the same sleek style as its oval counterpart in a full-length, arched design.
Mantel Mirrors
Positioned above a fireplace, console table, or dresser, mantel mirrors add height and grandeur. They reflect light and can create depth behind a tabletop curation. For a designer touch, check out our Topia Mantel Mirror by Ginny Macdonald.
Full Length + Floor Mirrors
These large mirrors are useful for style checks and getting dressed but also create the illusion of a taller, more open space. You can use an anti-tip kit to safely install a leaning mirror or style a free-standing mirror for a true statement. Most modern mirrors will include a tip kit, but you can always check for this under product details.
Vanity Mirrors + Medicine Cabinets
Medicine cabinets are a perfect blend of style and function. They offer practical storage while providing a well-lit reflection for your self-care regimen. Typically placed in a bathroom, these dynamic mirrors can be used to stash accessories and brighten your design anywhere from a bedroom to your entryway. Vanity designs are small mirrors placed on a tabletop for accent appeal and close looks.
Room by Room: How to Place Mirrors for Impact In Your Home Design
Mirrors are one of the easiest ways to transform a room, adding light, depth, and visual interest with minimal effort. The perfect placement can transform how a space feels, whether making a small room appear larger or creating a focal point. Here's how to style mirrors in every room for maximum impact.
Living Room Mirrors
A well-placed living room mirror can enhance natural light, create depth, and serve as a striking focal point. Try a large statement mirror above a sofa, a fireplace, or leaning against a wall to reflect the room’s best angles.
Bedroom Mirrors
Bedroom mirrors add both function and ambiance, whether it’s a full-length mirror for outfit checks or a decorative wall mirror above a dresser. Opt for soft, rounded shapes for a relaxed feel or an arched mirror for an elegant touch.
Bathroom Mirrors
Beyond their practical use, bathroom mirrors can elevate the space with thoughtful design. Consider a frameless modern mirror for sleek appeal, an arched shape for depth and character, or a medicine cabinet for a touch of charm and storage.
Entryway Mirrors
An entryway mirror is perfect for last-minute touch-ups while also brightening and opening the space. A round or organic-shaped mirror above a console table adds warmth, while a tall, leaning mirror makes a narrow hallway feel more expansive. Get the best of both with our Rook Mantel Mirror by Sarah Sherman Samuel propped on an entryway table.
Hallway Mirrors
A hallway mirror can transform the space by making it feel longer, brighter, and more dynamic. Try a series of smaller mirrors for a gallery effect or a standing mirror at the end of the hall to create an illusion of depth.
