It is difficult to imagine the dwelling of a modern man in a mirror. Figure mirrors, mirror panels, panels and tiles there is a place in any corner of the house or apartment. Options for using mirrors are very diverse, while in such a way of designing the interior, it is possible to emphasize the sophistication of the room, and completely destroy this image.

The mirrored walls of the walls in an apartment or house performs two main tasks: one of them is practical (man's reflection), and the other decorative - a mirroring smooth is an integral element of the image of the room. In addition, the mirrors often come to the rescue when you need to hide the "minuses" of the apartment layout. In the ability to visually regulate the proportionality of the room with mirrors there are no equal. The reflective surface visually "spreads" the space and fill it with light even in the most hopeless room at first glance. When creating a residential interior, these mirrors are equally actively operated at all times.

Practice proves that the competent use of mirrors transforms the room to be unrecognizable, and the visual expansion of the space boundaries is expensive. At the same time, a rapid approach to decorating an apartment or house mirrors creates unclear, and sometimes even a surrealistic situation.

Let's pay attention to examples of using mirror walls and other elements of a mirror decor in a residential room to find out how to use the mirror as efficiently as possible.

Features of the design of mirror walls in the interior

So, what can give the image of the premises the deliberate use of mirrors?

Spectator expansion of the borders of the room

The problem of weakly lit close rooms touched on many: in a room, which lacks neither light, no square meters, in the literal sense, you feel cured and depressed. To breathe in such a room more than life, you can safely bold a large sector of the wall with a mirror.

The mirror wall visually makes the room more spacious if you place it opposite the window. At the same time, it is advisable to arrange the room using neutral or bright calm shades. Under such conditions, the illusion of the second window will arise, which will abuse and increase light in a small space, and then the room, figuratively speaking, will become easier.

Another win-win version of the transformation is cramped and unimportant to the lighted room is considered to finish the walls with mirror panels. The brilliant or matte glass should be placed in the top of the wall: the panel will easily create a volume in the room, but it will not constantly throw a glance due to the height of its position.

Without unnecessary thought and doubts, you can take the entire surface of the wall from the ceiling to the floor behind the headboard, behind the sofa or armchairs. You can also make a wall in the hallway or corridor: the reflection does not prevent anyone, and the room will become more interesting and elegant.

Proper alignment of accents

It happens that the room is properly decorated at first glance looks fresh and boring. To add the interior of this room, the missing gloss, experts advise to engage a certain mirror element by issuing with its help the whole wall or part of it. Under the mirror elements, the mirrors of an unusual shape (for example, oval or diamond-shaped) are meant. At the same time, the mirror panel on the wall should not be too large in the area, otherwise reflects many interior items, and the eye will be problematic to focus on something specific. Mirrors are small or large - in no case should not deliver psychological discomfort to their owner.

Separate mirror wall decorations (stickers, or stickers) fit perfectly into the interior of rooms with matte textured walls of calm shades and the minimum number of furniture items. Then the mirror looks like it is impossible, because in this case it is a central object of decorative design of the room. There are other nuances of using small curly mirrors in the interior, however, we will return to mirror stickers on the wall.

Crushing - effectively and dynamically

Special originality will be given to the placement of mirrors, which are assembled on the wall not entire cannol, but fragmentary. This method creates such a dynamic and rhythm that the boundaries of space are visually moving away, and the mirror elements almost do not occupy your attention.

By issuing the interior in such a way, it is important to immediately determine the question that there will be gaps between the mirror fragments:

• equal mirrors in width and length;

• narrow between wide mirror fragments or wide between narrow mirrors.

The first option will have to be by the way when you design a small room and will help unobtrusively increase the space. The second option will be an excellent choice in a room that does not need extra meters, and small mirrors, separately awesome on the walls here and there, only emphasize the light and easy setting. Also, they can also be located comprehensively, and the gaps between fragments of different shapes and sizes can be very small.

The wall decorated in this way carries a full-fledged stylistic load in the creation of the interior and has a lot of advantages:

• having the effect of several prisms, beautifully "plays" the light;
• attracts attention to the coating of different textures and inhomogeneous relief;
• it looks original and bold.

Successful and deliberately losing options for design of mirror walls

Let's try to assess several non-standard facing of the wall of the wall with mirrors, as well as discuss the strengths and weaknesses of each of them.

Effect of the casting card

In the bedroom, where the bed is in parallel to the large mirror or opposite it, in a similar way it is better not to experiment. In a sleeping room and recreation, the role of a mirror wall most often performed the facades of the cabinet or a dressing table. From a practical point of view, you always have a large mirror at hand, of course, convenient, but in a psychological plan, a constant movement in a reflective surface will distract and annoy a person.

If you are not ready to sacrifice your soul calm for the sake of additional light in the room, do not be discouraged - it is not necessary to completely abandon the mirror. So that the mirror panels do not interfere and at the same time well shielded light, it is enough to build the facade only to the middle of the cabinet.

Double Effect

And this image demonstrates us how can you combine the functional purpose of the mirror and its aesthetic appearance. The mirrors in the bathroom are chosen and are very successful:

1. They are relatively large and arranged separately from each other. Nevertheless, it is not difficult to notice that this composition of the mirrors visually forms a single mirror wall, which reflects a holistic picture of the room.
2. Each mirror has its own function: one carries a working destination, and the second serves for general ferris.
3. There is an effect of visual expansion of space boundaries: the mirrors reflect the window, and the room in turn is decorated with gentle pastel wallpaper.

Mirror Maze

This is an example of a successful bathroom in all respects: all its surfaces are happy with calm tones, there is a large window and plenty of space to feel comfortable. A large mirror on the wall simultaneously gives the interior volume and ease.

Please note that another mirror is located in the wash zone facing the opposite wall. Together they create a corridor from infinitely repeated reflections. Such effect causes some people anxiety and other rejection feelings on the subconscious level. This is such a dual effect.

When everything is thought out to the smallest detail

A large and well-lit room shown below is self-sufficient, so in mirror "scams" does not need, but the mirrors are involved here. In this case, they carry a decorative load, and their location is thoroughly thought out and competently implemented. Judge for yourself:

1. Mirrored panels frame the fireplace portal, while being behind the backrests of furniture. This means that they are not thrown into the eyes.
2. The non-white rails and the frame, in which the mirror was issued, are not allocated, and the most successfully go into the bright environment of the room.
3. One of the mirrors reflects the window and an attractive landscape behind it. Thanks to the reflecting surface of the mirroring stroit, it seems that the room does not have borders - the mirrors look like a door in the nearby room.
4. Both mirror surfaces are about a quarter overlapped with chests. This trick reduces the level of anxiety, which can create a large mirror area.

The examples discussed above prove that compliance with all recommendations will help to establish mirrors so that they are not allowed to be unrecognizable room, the scarce of all the "weak" places of its planning.

Mirror wallpapers

The design of the walls in the room with mirror (metal) wallpaper is a new word in creating a fashionable interior. This unusual finishing material is one of its kind, since it is completely isolated a room, making it inaccessible for listening devices. At the same time, the mirror wallpaper looks rich and unsuitable. The original material looks so effectively that even the most exquisite mirror will replace in the interior, however, such pleasure can afford to afford to themselves above average.

For gluing mirror wallpaper, a perfectly flat wall is needed. By weight, this finishing material is significantly superior to paper wallpapers, so in the process of working with them use special adhesive for heavy wallpaper. A mirroring on the walls looks very firmly, however, in handling it needs to be some caution - wallpapers are sensitive to scratches.

The amazing "mirror" in the roll was created on the basis of a small amount of metal: the finest layer of aluminum foil is applied to the coating, which is treated with a special transparent varnish.

The color palette of metal wallpapers is quite diverse to satisfy the most refined taste. So, the mirror coating can have a steel, silver, golden or bronze shiny shade.

Careful relationship will provide a mirror wallpaper long service life. This coating is not afraid of the Sun: does not fade and does not fade under his straight rays. In addition, such wallpapers have a very high resistance to moisture, so they can be used even in the bathroom.

Mirror wall stickers

Given that expensive inventions of the type of mirror wallpaper not every wallet will fall to taste, the modern market of finishing materials offers relatively inexpensive mirrored wall stickers. They look stylish, unusual and, with a deliberate use, very effectively. This is exactly the option when, without prejudice to own finance, you can choose exactly what the creative image of any interior will trust.

Make sure that the mirror sticker could hardly "pull" the main, functional, task of the present mirror: reflections of objects on its surface are significantly distorted. However, such stickers not only perfectly cope with a decorative task - they increase the volume of artificial and natural light in the room.

The most qualitative is the stickers created on the basis of an acrylic mirror. To the wall, such stickers are glued to special professional adhesion, and the wall cover material - be it plaster - "Venetian" or conventional wallpaper - no values.

The budget version of the mirror stickers produce from the vinyl film with a reflective effect. In truth, the decorative material of this quality does not boast of durability, and it can be used if it is possible not to have overestimated effects to the effect that it produces.

Selection of space for mirror stickers

A properly selected place for the composition of small mirrors consider that which will allow them to profitably reflect objects located next to them. Based on this, it is important to ensure that the stickers are attached where they will surround them only attractive decor elements.

With this reception, your interior will play an additional set of shades - the reflected items must be replaced by the walls of the wall with mirror stickers located on it. By the way, as soon as the reflective surface of the sticker "caught" the features of a bright sofa or a colorful panel on the wall will be released by a successful color solution. Very spectacular mirror stickers reflect objects with a homogeneous texture.

Mirror stickers in the interior of rooms of different purposes

The living room, where a strict classic style reigns, somewhat "rapid", if you decorate one of its walls with a composition of elegant unusual stickers. Remember one important rule: the more simple the design of furniture than the neutral of its color, the more imagination and creative courage can be shown in working with mirror stickers.

The most suitable place for reflecting stickers in the bedroom is traditionally considered the wall behind the headboard. In the children's room, the heroes of fairy tales, animals, stars, mirror butterflies on the wall look particularly touching.

In the bathroom, clear lines of modern plumbing can be emphasized using mirror droplets, openwork vignettes and thin curved lines.
