Understanding the Ratios

Choosing the right size mirror involves understanding the visual balance between your mirror and the console or furniture piece it will be positioned above. Mirrors that are 50-75% the width of your console will typically look well-balanced and aesthetically pleasing; these are shown in green. Those outside this range, marked in red, can feel either too overpowering or too undersized.

Visual Principles:

  • Proportion: Generally, a mirror should be between half to three-quarters the width of the furniture piece it accompanies. This ensures that the mirror doesn't overpower the console, but also isn't too diminutive to be noticed.
  • Scale: This refers to the size comparison between the mirror and other items in the room. A well-scaled mirror will complement its surroundings without making them feel cramped or overly spacious.
  • Balance: Achieving visual harmony in a room often involves balancing size and placement. The ideal mirror size should create a balanced look above your console or furniture piece, offering symmetry and cohesiveness in the design.
