SONAS offers tips to share with clients when selecting the perfect mirror for their bathroom. PERFECT FIT Typically, people choose a mirror that lines up as the same width and the vanity unit itself. Alternatively, choose a mirror about 75%-80% of the width of the vanity unit. This may be less if leaving room for wall lights on either side of the mirror. In terms of the height, it is important to allow plenty of scope as the bathroom may be used by children and tall adults. For this reason, it’s a good idea to allow for

For larger bathrooms – especially with double basins – you may opt for double mirrors, or alternatively one large single mirror to span the width of both basins. Round mirrors are becoming more popular. Whether back-lit or hung from a strap of chain, a round mirror can soften the feel of a bathroom. LIGHT ME UP!

Modern cabinet mirrors from SONAS offer a wide choice of illuminated or recessed mirror cabinets, which can be coordinated with a choice of vanity.
