While a statement mirror can make a beautifully designed bathroom even more of a standout, how you place the mirror can be just as important – and can have as much of an impact – as it’s style. Reflect on this collection of bathroom mirrors from around the world to gain inspiration for your own redesign.

I like the idea of a mirror becoming not only function but adding form, all of these enhance the rooms with an unexpected quirk.Lovely.
We have totally renovated the house we bought 12 months ago except for the bathrooms. When we do renovate them I will make sure that the mirror is not directly behind the washbasins as they are now. Forever removing water splashes. Some beautiful ideas here. Love round mirrors but might not be able to have them because I want storage behind them.
Some interesting mirror ideas. I love everything about no. 32!
