In fact, not only do mirrors add the illusion of space, they reflect the sunlight and create a sense of depth in a room, which can be ideal for more compact interiors. Not to mention, they can celebrate the grandeur of a large space, channeling a decadent vibe that adds a sense of fun and majesty to your home. Read on and check out the mirrored images that follow…

Hallways and Entryways with Mirrored Closet Doors

As you scan through the images that follow, don’t forget to note the style evoked by each set of mirrored closet doors. For example, in the hallway below, we see how mirrored doors create an undeniably clean-lined modern look. The secret: the doors are not bordered by heavy metallic trim. It’s all about the mirrored glass! [from Carver + Schicketanz]

In the next featured space, we see a look of sheer sophistication. A tiled floor, chandelier-style lighting and other architectural elements contribute to the glamorous feel, and the mirrors add chic reflective shine. [from E.N.D. Designs Inc.]

We see another clean-lined closet solution in the image below, this time in a compact entryway than definitely benefits from the illusion of space created by mirrored doors. Not a lot of room? No problem, especially when reflection can create a roomy feel! [from Milestone Homes]

Mirrored Closet Doors in the Bedroom

Speaking of space-enhancing qualities, we couldn’t resist profiling the helpful use of mirrored closet doors in the bedroom, where a sense of roominess creates an overall tranquil feel. This can be especially important in compact spaces like the one below. Note how a series of six mirrored doors visually enlarges this modern room. [from Susan Diana Harris Interior Design]

Clean is the word–it’s hard to deny the clean, modern look of simple closet doors, like these selections from IKEA. Note how they reflect the warm, modern accents of the bedroom below, from the comfy bedding to an angled wooden ceiling. [from Flying Dormer Home Remodel & Additions]

Then again, mirrored closets can also convey a sense of large-scale grandeur! In the next featured image, we see a glamorous 3D rendering from Vicki Bergelt Interior Design, LLC. Note how the tall reflective panels capture the modern-meets-elegant essence of the room!

Who says a mirrored closet can’t create an industrial vibe in the bedroom? The space below proves that brushed metal edging and a nearby brick wall can combine to evoke a modern feel that is upscale and a bit “factory chic.” Contemporary lighting and side tables help cement this edgy contemporary look.  [from Matt Harrer Photgraphy via Houzz] 

…And when the mirrored closet doors lead into another closet, the result is wonderfully expansive. From the look of the bedroom reflected in the glass, this is a space with a view. It makes sense to maximize that view with a reflective wall of mirrors that can keep the cityscape alive across the room! [from Melbourne Contemporary Kitchens]

Bathrooms Featuring Mirrored Closet Doors

Why put mirrored closet doors in the bathroom? Because they create a strong sense of spaciousness, they reflect the light, and they often enhance the shine of other typical powder room surfaces, such as tile. When a mirrored closet door combines with marble and floral wallpaper, the result is elegant and even charming, as shown below. [from Leland Interiors]

There’s nothing more modern than a mirrored hallway in the bathroom, especially when crisp whites and cool metallic tones are involved. Simple, pure, and bright–the perfect mood for a room that should inspire you to rejuvenate and refresh. [from DRAW Architecture via Houzz]
