A mirror is the easiest way to make a room feel bigger and brighter — it bounces light, adds depth, and doubles as art. Here are 10 worth buying.
My top pick: A large round mirror in a thin gold or black metal frame, hung opposite or near a window, is the one to own — round mirrors soften a room full of rectangles, a thin frame looks modern, and placing it near natural light maximises the brightness it reflects.
