How to Use Mirrors to Expand Small Spaces
Mirrors are a simple yet powerful tool to visually enlarge a space. With the right placement and style, you can make small Irish homes feel brighter, deeper, and more open. Here’s how:
1. Use Large, Tall Mirrors
Lean a floor mirror against a wall or hang it vertically to reflect ceiling height and draw the eye upward. Try the Mirror Bella Rectangular 80×160 cm for maximal impact with a clean-edge frame.
2. Place Mirrors Opposite Windows
Position a mirror directly across from your main window to double daylight and make rooms feel sunny and airy.
3. Layer Multiple Mirrors
Combine a decorative mirror with a larger structural one to add depth and personality. For example, pair bold shapes like the Sun Ray Gold Wall Mirror Ø84 cm with simpler rectangular frames.
4. Mirror Entryways and Hallways
Long mirrors visually extend narrow corridors—great for compact Irish homes.
5. Reflect Focal Points
Hang a mirror to reflect a fireplace, art, plant, or seating area. It effectively doubles the visual interest and brightens the space.
