15 Living Room Mirrors To Revamp Your Home

Mirrors are one of the best decor choices you can make for your interior, especially in the living room. Why? Living room mirrors – regardless of shape and size – are ideal for making your space feel bigger, brighter and lighter.

Firstly, the reflection of light creates a brighter and more airy feeling of space. 'Placing your mirror on a wall adjacent to a window or glass door will trick the eye into thinking your living room is larger and will also bounce light into all corners of your space,' explains Yvonne Keal, senior product manager at Hillarys.

As mirrors are both functional and decorative, they're incredibly versatile. They work as a focal point for a room, with statement mirrors in particular helping to add some drama and reflect your personality.

Sleek wall mirrors with understated frames are perfect for minimalist living rooms, while decorative living room mirrors (such as those with ornate frames) work well as accent pieces. Fill empty corners with tall leaner mirrors, and choose arched mirrors for above your mantelpiece.

‘If you select a mirror that is not only functional but equally attractive and unique in appearance, you'll also create a focal point that can tie your whole space together,' says Catherine Cornelissen, founder & director of Decoralist,

Despite the obvious benefits of styling mirrors in our living spaces, don't go overboard. Sam Hood, co-founder and chief creative 0fficer at Amara, warns: 'Mirrors also work well in combination, to help reflect light off each other and around the room, but as a general rule you should only add mirrors to a maximum of two walls in a room, as adding too many can make guests feel uncomfortable.'

Unlike a hallway mirror, there are lots of options available when it comes to choosing a prime location for the mirror in your living room. Consider what will be reflected, aside from lots of lovely light.

Martin Waller, founder of Andrew Martin, says: 'Through a mirror, you can spot your favourite artwork from an unforeseen corner of the room, hang one opposite a window to bring the outside in or in a passageway as a keyhole for what the next room has in store.'
