A mirror is a decorative element with several benefits, one of which is, without a doubt, the reflection it reflects. It is really effective at visually enlarging and deepening a room. It allows us to expand and play with viewpoints, as well as observe what is behind us.

Mirrors reverse the direction of the image in an equal yet opposite angle from which the light shines upon it. This allows the viewer to see themselves or objects behind them, or even objects that are at an angle from them but out of their field of view, such as around a corner.

Mirrors help you to see what is behind or in blind spots around a vehicle so not having mirrors will obviate this feature. Another disadvantage with no mirrors is because they don't have a reflection, you won't be able to tell if a vampire gets into your car.

Modern mirrors are largely produced by the wet deposition of silver or aluminium. The process begins with the cleaning and polishing of the glass substrate to remove impurities and contaminants. The glass then requires a series of coatings beginning with tin chloride because silver will not bond directly with glass.

Reflective glass lets optimal light into your space, but also reduces glare from the sun, which eliminates the need for blinds and other window coverings. And when combined with solar-controlling low-e coating, this glass can reflect incoming radiant heat energy to keep your HVAC costs low.

Types of Mirrors

• Plane mirror: The images formed from a plane mirror are the reflected images in their normal proportions but reversed from left to right.
• Convex mirror: These are the spherical mirrors that are curved outward and the image obtained is virtual, diminished and erect for a real object.
• Concave mirrors:

Mirrors can be broadly classified as plane mirrors, rotating mirrors, inclined mirrors, and spherical mirrors. Moreover, spherical mirrors can be further classified into two types, i.e. a concave spherical mirror and a convex spherical mirror.

For all of us, mirrors are fundamental grooming aids, but that is not the only benefit they provide. They also act as vital decoration tools that transform spaces and provide a sense of openness. You can set a lively and cheery mood in any room with the help of mirrors decorated tastefully.

In its most basic form, a mirror is a flat piece of glass coated with a metal alloy, which allows the glass to reflect a clear image - this is called a plane mirror. Plane mirrors are the most common type and are found in bathrooms, bedrooms, and department store dressing rooms.

What is a mirror? A mirror is a reflective surface that bounces off light, producing either a real image or a virtual image. When an object is placed in front of a mirror, the image of the same object is seen in the mirror.

Common Types of Mirrors

• Plane Mirror - These are flat mirrors that reflect images in their normal proportions, reversed from left to right.
• Concave Mirror - Concave mirrors are spherical mirrors that curve inward like a spoon.
• Convex Mirror - Convex mirrors are also spherical mirrors.

Flat, polished mirrors are the most common type of mirrors used on bathroom walls. Such kinds of mirrors are made with glass and come in a variety of sizes and shapes. They also feature a frame that enhances the look and goes well with the decor of the space.
