Height matters. If you stand in the middle of a room, place the mirror at eye level so it aligns with the top third of the mirror. Group smaller mirrors together to add interest to a wall or decorate an entire wall with mirrors to add more depth to a room. This trick works wonders in small spaces that also get limited natural light. Oversized floor-length mirrors add grandeur in large rooms with high ceilings. Do not attempt to hang an oversized mirror! Lean it against the wall for a causal effect that also feels sophisticated.
