Modern Mirrors

Modern mirrors bring a clean, finished look to a bedroom, hallway, or living space, while helping a room feel brighter and more open.

At The Brick, modern mirror styles focus on crisp shapes, balanced proportions, and versatile finishes that work with today’s furniture and décor.

What makes a mirror “modern”?

A modern mirror keeps the design simple and intentional. Think streamlined frames, clear geometry, and silhouettes that feel calm rather than ornate.

Modern mirrors often work best when:

• The frame is minimal (or the edge is clean and understated).
• The shape feels architectural (round, oval, rectangle, arch).
• The mirror is sized to “fit the wall,” not just fill a blank spot.

Modern mirrors for bedrooms

A modern mirror instantly upgrades the dresser zone, helping the bedroom feel more complete and functional.

Modern mirror above a dresser

For a balanced look, a reliable sizing approach is choosing a mirror around two-thirds to three-quarters the width of the dresser, so the proportions feel intentional.
For placement, leaving a small gap between the dresser top and the bottom of the mirror (often around 4–6 inches) keeps the two pieces visually connected without feeling crowded.

Full-length modern mirrors

A full-length modern mirror is a great choice near a closet or bedroom door, giving you a head-to-toe outfit check without needing a large dresser mirror setup.

To make the mirror work harder in the room, place it where it can catch natural light and reflect it back into the space.

Modern wall mirrors by shape

Shape is the quickest way to dial in the “modern” feel.

Round modern mirrors

Round mirrors soften rooms with lots of straight lines (bed frames, dressers, nightstands). They’re a strong option for smaller bedrooms, since the curves keep the wall from feeling too heavy.

Rectangular modern mirrors

Rectangular mirrors feel crisp and tailored, especially above long dressers. If the room has a low headboard and wide furniture lines, a rectangle mirror helps reinforce that clean, horizontal look.

Arched modern mirrors

An arched modern mirror adds height and creates a subtle statement without needing bold colour or heavy ornamentation. This shape also pairs nicely with minimalist nightstands and low-profile beds.

Styling tips that stay practical

A modern mirror looks best when the surface below it stays usable.

• Keep one side of the dresser top clear for daily essentials.
• Use a tray to group small items so the space still feels tidy.
• Add one vertical element (like a lamp) to balance the mirror and stop the setup from feeling flat.
