Add Depth to Your Kitchen With This Simple Trick
Adding depth to your kitchen doesn’t require a renovation or a designer. If your space ever feels a little flat or closed-in, it might just be missing one simple, unexpected addition: a mirror.
Mirrors aren’t just for bathrooms and entryways. Placed thoughtfully in your kitchen, they can instantly create the illusion of more space, bounce natural light into darker corners, and add a layer of visual interest. Mirrors are one of the easiest ways to create a sense of depth in any room, and your kitchen is no exception. Try leaning a framed mirror against your backsplash on the countertop for an effortlessly chic look or hang a small collection of vintage mirrors on an open wall to draw the eye further into the room. You may even already have a mirror or two in another room that could find a fresh new purpose in your kitchen.
With just one mirror (or a few) you can add the kind of depth and dimension that makes your kitchen feel open, layered, and designer-worthy. It’s one of those small changes that makes a big impact.
Bonus Tip: As spring light starts pouring in, position your mirror across from or adjacent to a window. The reflected natural light will add even more depth and brightness to your kitchen, almost like adding a second window without the renovation.
