5 Ideas To Integrate A Mirror In The Entrance

Round or rectangular, to stand or hang, in accumulation on a wall or on its own, if there is one essential object when fitting out an entrance, it is the mirror. On a stand or above a chest of drawers, in an XXL or minimalist version, purely utilitarian or decorative… Follow this guide for 5 ideas to integrate a mirror in the entrance hall properly.

Which mirror to choose for the entrance?

We do not choose a mirror at random. Its use and your style of interior decoration will guide your choice.

Let’s talk about styling first. In a house with an industrial look, choose a workshop-style mirror with an outline reminiscent of glass roofs. In a bohemian-style house, we like the light wood mirror, next to which we will place a Dame Jeanne with herbs from the Pampas. Rather baroque style? The large golden mirror is the piece for you.

Now, let’s take a look at its role in the entrance. A mirror can be used to bring light, to visually enlarge the space, be purely decorative or even absolutely necessary to check its look before leaving the house.

To bring roundness and brightness to your entrance hall, opt for a round mirror. We like it both in mini and XXL versions, alone or in accumulation. If you opt for an accumulation, hang the mirrors at different levels and opt for different sizes. This purely decorative object can also become very useful, at face level, for a final inspection before departure. And yes, we check that there is no trace of toothpaste at the corners of the lips!

Finally, for a general inspection just before an outing of the utmost importance, you also need a rectangular mirror, placed on the floor or fixed to the wall. This long mirror reveals your whole figure, ideal for checking that your whole outfit is working. No fashion faux-pas today! Bonus point, this type of mirror gives depth to your entrance. Quite high and rather narrow, it creates a feeling of spaciousness that can visually double the dimensions of the entrance.

Where should the mirror be placed in an entryway?

-To visually enlarge the room

In order to almost double the volume of your room (at least to give the impression), we advise you to choose a narrow and very high rectangular mirror. This model has the power to create a feeling of grandeur.

-To bring light

The round mirror, in addition to being very trendy, has the ability to bring a maximum of light. The reason ? Devoid of angles, it reflects light to infinity. To benefit even more from this asset, do not hesitate to place several and create a wall of round mirrors in your entrance. We also like it above an entrance cabinet or even better in an XXL version above a wooden bench.
For more brightness, do not hesitate to associate a mirror with a lamp. The combo will allow for a brighter room because the mirror will reflect and diffuse the light.

-To prepare before leaving

For a quick check-up of your appearance before leaving your home, bet on the rectangular mirror hung vertically. If you can fix it directly to the wall, you can also choose a free-standing version or opt for the adhesive mirror to stick directly to the wall. The mirror to be hung via hooks is also a possibility. If you have space in your hall, do not hesitate to fall for the XXL mirror that you will simply place against a wall. Models with gilding are particularly trendy.
