Art Deco fittings are meant to be noticed, which makes them risky to overuse. The trick is one statement piece per room, a sculptural pendant or a backlit mirror, against otherwise plain, contemporary surfaces. This guide covers where the style actually came from, how to style it properly, and the genuinely underused room it works in beyond the entryway and dining table: the bathroom.
A bathroom mirror is measured against the basin, not general eye level, leave roughly 10–15cm of clearance above the tap. But height is only half the job: this guide also covers frontlit versus backlit for grooming, the colour temperature and CRI that actually shows your true skin tone, and whether a demister is worth having.
LED doesn't automatically beat standard, it depends on the room. This guide breaks down when a plain mirror is genuinely the better choice, the real difference between frontlit, backlit, and edge-lit LED mirrors, and which shape (round, arch, pill, rectangular, or organic) actually suits your space and style, not just your budget.
