Whenever I used to think of large mirrors, I would remember my grandma's not-so-appealing mirrored closet doors. Gratefully, now-a-days mirrors have graduated to official art status! Floor mirrors and large wall mirrors are also becoming so popular that many are framing and DIY'ing their own. I love having mirrors in our home.
Here are some reasons why a mirror can be a great investment for a minimalist:
- Common use product (viewing oneself)
- Wall art and focal point of a room using minimal space while making a big statement
- Adds a sense of wealth and class to the space
- Can emphasize the height or width of a room
- Reflects light, bringing more light into the space so as to appear lighter
- Adds personality and compliments the room's decor style in the size, frame style, colors, etc
- Reflects the other side of the space so as to make the space appear larger
- Can be positioned to reflect a window wherein the window's view is projected to the other side which is especially neat when the window has a scenic view
Not only does this mirror use almost the entire wall space, its frame actually dictates the style of the room!
