With so many options on the market, in nearly every color, frame material, and shape, we wanted to narrow down the choices to a few of our favorites. And what else? Hayes Little Studio cofounder Kate Hayes adds: “Scale is wildly important.” The ideal mirror should be large enough to expand a small space without dominating it, and sufficiently sizable to fill up a larger one.
