When it comes to styling our homes, we’re surrounded by sharp, straight and square shapes like our furniture, windows and, most of the time, the actual room itself.
Mixing up the vibe with rounded shapes can instead soften a room making it feel much more homely and feminine. Circular shapes are said to enhance calm with their perfectly rounded edges, creating a harmonious atmosphere within the home.
We’ve seen the arched and window-effect mirrors all over our Instagram and Pinterest feeds over the past few weeks and we’re desperate to add a gew to our home. They’re generally rounded at the top and rectangular at the bottom, some stand out with their pane separations to mimic church windows. We’ve seen them styled in many different ways and with a plethora of options from many different brands, there’s a mirror to slot right into your interior aesthetic.
A fine-edged arched mirror looks great on top of a mantlepiece for an art-deco inspired look. Balance a large window-effect mirror with a metal frame against a wall in your home to give it an industrial edge. If your bathroom has a double sink, two matching rimless arch mirrors could transform your ordinary toothbrushing-station into a statement room for 2020. You could even jazz up your garden by adding a window-effect mirror into the corner that never gets any sunlight and decorate around it with some fancy plant pots.
For an easy minimalist transformation, choose an extra large arched mirror and replace any ordinary rectangular full length mirror in your home. If you want to mimic the aesthetic of Rosie Huntington-Whiteley’s Instagram feed, opt for a white vintage framed mirror in a nearly-empty room with wooden flooring to give it that antique luxury feel and create a stunning backdrop for your feed.
