Mirror handling

Mirrors work best when they solve a clear spatial problem instead of acting like random decor.

Mirrors are easy to overuse. In practice, they work best when they support light, depth, or sightline correction rather than serving as a generic feng shui shortcut.

Typical use cases

A spatial correction toolUseful for light and sightlinesNeeds deliberate placement

What this usually helps

This kind of remedy fits areas where you need to borrow light, open up a cramped feeling, or redirect how the eye moves through the room.

How it lands in a real home

It usually lands as part of a wall, console, or entry composition, so the mirror reads like a design decision instead of a floating object.

Do not copy it blindly

Do not treat mirrors as universal fixes. Door-facing, bed-facing, and reflective glare issues still need layout-specific judgment.
