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.
