Logan: There is no law that says you must each have a mirror. I did all this work on my tile wall and didn't want to cover it up, plus two mirrors would have competed too much with the adjacent medicine cabinets, so I built this: It is perfectly functional too.

Love the console . I dislike mirrors in DRs since no one wants to watch temselves eating. I also do not like family pics in public spaces a awesome piece of art is always preferable IMO The pic seems distorted to me soa maybe post the roome meaurements and a pic of the wall the console is going on . I do not loke those mirrors with that console . No you cannot go wider than the console . I do not think the rug works with the chandelier either .

Bigger is better as you're realizing. The console can be as wide as 75% of the space between the blue tape and the bedroom door. Then the mirror can be as wide as 75% of the console's length and should hang 5" above it. Does that help? Don't forget a striking area rug and light fixture! Do you still have matching paint to use on the vent above so it fades into the wall?

My condo has 20' ceilings and I'm trying to give an illusion of more windows since there's only windows on one side. I purchased a 48" mirror and 48" console but now realize the mirror perhaps should be smaller than the console. I'm wondering if I should purchase a bigger console or could I just off-center the console and get a tall plant on the right to match it better with the mirror. I've posted other pictures of possible other spots to put my mirrors and may consider having 2 in the same room. The current photo with new console is with my older small mirror - I got the bigger mirror since the wall is so big.
