Latest bathroom trends are white and bright with bold
colored walls, ceramic floor tiles in various patterns and white pottery
to add dramatic touch to the bathroom decor. Yet, bathroom mirrors have
retained their place as an important part of the bathroom design and
look and determine how the natural and artificial light in the bathroom
is reflected and changes its mood and feel. There are myriad styles of
decorative bathroom mirrors that you can choose to conform to your
bathroom style ranging from traditional to contemporary. Victorian style
bathrooms with dark wood finish, boxed in baths and wainscoting call for
wood framed bathroom mirror, arched mirrors and perhaps wall sconces for
extra lighting while traditional bathroom furnishings have wooden framed
mirrors in softer designs.
Traditional bathroom mirrors include various wood textures and tones
and wood bath panels as their design elements. Choosing a right bathroom
wall mirror is based on the size of the bathroom and the size of the
bathroom vanity. Bathroom mirrors should never extend beyond the vanity
while bathrooms with double basins should use rectangular wall-to-wall
mirrors to reflect and distribute light effectively to highlight
bathroom accessories and other bathroom furniture and add to the overall
visual space in the bathroom. Besides the wall mirror, solid white
bathroom suites with white bathroom furnishing also reflect light and
diffuses light well to add spaciousness and give an airy feel to the
bath space.
White pottery bathroom suites give a cohesive look to the bath space
and jazz up with warm colors and hues such as reds, blues or greens that
are so popular in latest bathroom designs and trends with solid colored
ceramic tiles or tiles with motif inlay as accents to give a unity to
overall look of the bathroom. For contemporary bathrooms, frameless
bathroom mirrors with inset lighting look ultra modern. Contemporary
bathroom mirrors that are generally circular or square in shape go well
with detailed modern bathrooms and high-tech bathroom styles. For elite
and complex bathroom remodeling projects, wall mirrors that do not
exceed the length of floor mounted or wall mounted basin furniture are
very popular.
Hanging wall mirrors with overhanging light fixtures increase the
amount of light in the bathroom. You can use your creativity and
imagination to hang wall mirrors in different ways to give dramatic
results. Mirrors with built in lighting can be installed inside shower
enclosures and in and around the bathing area. Bathroom mirror can
double up as additional lighting fixture by diffusing light properly.
These days, one can buy bathroom mirror and lighting that come based on
a theme in designs, styles and sizes conforming to each other and makes
it easier to incorporate in other bathroom design components.
Bathroom mirrors help us in so many ways from brushing our teeth and
dental floss in the morning to shaving to scrubbing and applying makeup
and should be able to help us clearly see everything. Even vanity and
decorative mirrors should be chosen carefully for this purpose. Bathroom
mirrors range from simple shower glass mirror to the clear fogless
mirrors and come in frames that transform this basic utility item to a
custom bathroom accessory. You may use framed or unframed mirrors or
install special attachments to your bathroom mirrors for holding mugs,
brushes, soap-case and other toiletries. Embellish your bathroom with an
antique mirror; iron framed or standalone to give it a historical or
period look. Aluminum frames are easy to maintain and are resistant to
oxidation and are thus, popular with many people.
