Home design experts are united in saying that mirror glass is an excellent way to create a sense of depth, sophistication, and aesthetics to your home.

Mirror Glass: Brains and Beauty

Remember that decorative mirrors can improve the appearance of your home and they serve a practical function. Mirrors add light, depth, and appeal to any home living space. 

Customizable 

The really good news is that both the frame and the type of mirror glass used to spruce up your home can be customized around your current home decor needs or the future direction you’d like to go in. 

As examples, both wall-hung mirrors for areas like hallways and foyers as well as mirrored closet doors are practical and extremely affordable ways of making your rooms appear much more spacious. 

Once you find the style that you like and select a frame that matches your surrounding decor, you can have your mirror glass cut to the specifications that you set. Of course, they are a few different mirror types to choose from.

 Different Types 

The three most common types of mirrors are flat mirrors that don’t skew the proportions of the reflected image at all (flat mirrors), spherical mirrors that create the illusion of more space by curving inward (concave mirror), and finally another kind of spherical mirror that instead makes reflected images appear smaller (convex mirror). 

Each of these types of mirror glass serves its purpose. Let’s take a look at a few different ways you might like to use these mirrors to improve the aesthetics and sense of space in your home. Plane mirrors might be the easiest place to start. 

Plane Mirrors 

Plane mirrors will give you a mirror image (not a pun, a reversed image!) and make things that seem like they’re on the left appear on the right and vice versa.

Because you need an accurate reflection when you’re checking your mirror in the morning, plane mirrors are appropriate for bedrooms and bathrooms. 

Concave Mirrors

If you’re looking to add a sense of space to your bedroom, though, then you might decide on a concave mirror to lend a sense of openness.  

Having one concave mirror in the bathroom can be good, though, for checking makeup and seeing how well you shaved. 

Convex Mirrors 

A convex mirror, by contrast, can create a wonderful fish-eye effect over a mantle or in the foyer.
