A mirror is an important interior detail. With this thing you can significantly improve the appearance of the room.

In addition, mirrors help to visually expand the space in small rooms.

However, the installation of the mirror surface should not be accompanied by errors, otherwise the interior will be spoiled.

Yulia Tychino, an expert of the online publication "BelNovosti" in the field of design and interior, listed common mistakes when placing mirrors in an apartment.

It's simple: something beautiful should be reflected. For example, interestingly decorated walls, nice-looking furniture, etc.

And the door is hardly the most attractive place in the house.

In addition, the first thing a person who enters an apartment with an incorrectly installed mirror will see is their own reflection. And this situation should be avoided.

Two mirrors that reflect each other form a recursion. Or the so-called "endless corridor".

The space, of course, visually expands. But it doesn't look very nice.
