Mirrors..

The best way to enhance any interior is by adding a mirror.. i found some pictures of interiors i love with faboulus mirrors..

Fashioned from convex mirrors and buttons by artist Clare Graham , a seven-foot-tall hanging sculpture provides an arresting focal point in decorator Matthew White and theater producer Tom Schumacher's Pasadena penthouse; the gilt table is mid-19th-century French, and the banquette is White's own design

Designed by Vicente Wolf for a Manhattan family, a wall-spanning mirror creates the illusion of endless space in this pared-down dining area; the wood-and-steel table is by Wolf, and the vintage armchairs and side chairs are by Dominique and Ruhlmann, respectively.


The jagged, irregular surfaces of a Cubist-style mirror refract the intricate metal chandelier displayed on the living room floor of model Audrey Marnay and event impresario Alexandre de Betak's New York apartment; Betak conceived the backlit Lucite shelves for his records.

(notice the silver stool with the pot on top of it.. I LOVE ITT!!!!!)
Decorator Todd Romano brings Versailles-like opulence to his Manhattan living room with antiqued mercury-glass panels framing a 1950s still life of sea creatures; the Louis XVI banquette is upholstered in a Scalamandré velvet..

For a New York family's den, designer Diana Viñoly mounted mirror-backed French windows above nailhead-trimmed seating by Classic Sofa; a 1968 etching by Jasper Johns hangs on the left.
