Bathroom mirrors design help needed

Posts: 618 Forumite
Hi,
Can I pick the collective brains?
We have a small bathroom, it's about 8ft square, there are no windows.
As you enter the room the bath is on your right, a blank wall in front of you, and a blank wall to your left.
It's tiled in all sides to half height.
Now the question.
I want to fit tiles to celling mirror on the wall above the bath, and the wall to the left.
So we have two large mirrors facing each other.
The mrs thinks this may be too much with the mirror into mirror optical tricks that will result.
I think it will add an illusion of space and the opptical issues would not be a problem. But the more i think about that the more unsure I become.
Does anyone have this arrangement and how does it work in practice.
Many thanks
Rags

I think two adjacent walls would give a lighter airier impression without the reflection of the reflection of the reflection.
Personally I prefer a large mirror tile surrounded by plain tiles than the smaller mirror tiles.I'm a Forum Ambassador on the housing, mortgages & student money saving boards.

Thanks silvercar.
Re-Reading what I typed I understand the confusion, butvthe mirrors would be a single peice of glass not tiles.
Not practical to do two adjacent walls as there are a shaving socket and boxed in pipework between the Walls.
But I like your thinking.The only place where success comes before work is the dictionary…
