Taste specific.

4 years ago

I am not a "by - default - mirrored - wall - hater", but I don't get the combinations, and that can't be . . . pleasant, lying in there.


I don't dislike the tile, I just don't get the assemblage.

    So many mirrors. I suppose the inhabitant really liked themselves.

    If there was ever a case for gutting...

    That bedroom would give me vertigo!

    And the way the tub is tiled makes it look like a bed. 😂 Ugh, that coral/mauve/raspberry tub…*shudder*

    Heirs to the Windex fortune maybe?



    I want the coffee table. And that black ceiling light. And yes, also the glamorous bedroom door (but I'd need them all to match).

    Someone found a bunch of $5 full-length mirrors at Big Lots!

    Maybe they were kinky...😏

    That's a big no on the mirrors. And also on the tv. What an odd spot for it.

    Wow. That many mirrors around the bed and the tub would make me feel like I could never get the house clean enough to live there.

    At first glance, I thought the bathtub was a bed. I do like the 80s brass and glass coffee table.

    I used to have a mirror wall in my workout room, and I felt that was appropriate, and I once did a hotel room design that had a relatively small mirror on the ceiling above a round bed, but that was in the 80s.

    The secondary bedroom and guest room/office in Cathedral City both have closets with mirror doors, and we're okay with that because those rooms are relatively small. Besides the bathrooms, we do not have any other mirrors in that house.

    I've had mirrored closet doors in previous homes. It's a good spot for a mirror! I don't have a fancy house so it seems perfectly normal. Use closet to get clothes. Get dressed. Look at self in convenient mirror.


    I bet the TV in this room is on an arm and can be swung around for either in-bed or on-sofa viewing. It's the only practical thing in the room, I mean, if you wanted a TV in your bedroom...

    That is one unique decor! I actually like the tub, although I would not create such a thing. It is definitely "taste specific." As for the mirrors around the bed, maybe they like the funhouse . . . I've tried using large mirrors in decorating, the downside of always seeing yourself or other people and reflecting nothing that great in particular seems to counterbalance any positives in my experience. I had one on a credenza in my dining room and had to put a bunch of stuff in front of it. It was at eye level for anyone sitting at the dining room table. We eat in there all the time, and I could not stand looking at myself sitting at the table every morning. I tried to look away but no matter what, there I was!

    I don’t want to see that much of myself or what I’m doing. It would feel chaotic in a bedroom, when I want calm and restful.

    The mirrored bathroom cabinets would drive me to insanity with keeping them pristine. I’m very, very anal about splatters in the bathroom (toothpaste, lotions, water spots, hairspray overspray, whatever).

    That’s a lot of track lighting in the bathroom, too … better to show every little dried and hardened toothpaste dot. Yes, I’m obsessed with mirrors being clean! Not sorry!

    I’ll take the coffee table. And say that the rooms, while not my style, look very well taken care of.

    The tile makes the tub look like a bed. All very odd.

    I have dozens of pictures of mirrored powder rooms, some dining rooms and a hallway or two. It's not always terrible. But I would never want a mirrored bedroom. Actually we don't have mirrors in the bedrooms at all.

    I like the use of mirrors in small rooms.

    I defend mirrors on the decor boards often.

    Last house, I had a pretty one (shaped like a flower) in the back of an armoire, and kept the doors open. It gave off a great reflection.

    I like many dining rooms that have a mirrored wall, especially if it’s segmented or antiqued. Very wonderfully vintage.

    Figured the mirrors in first pic--esp being on the ceiling, are for sexy time

    What a handsome coffee table!


    Like the tile in the bathroom pic - all the rest doesn't live up to it IMO.
