large mirror above bath, yay or nay?

We are just about to install our master en-suite bathroom. It was originally the main stairwell, hence the large window.
We have bought our bath and plan to put a bathroom chandelier above it to give it that wow factor.
We need to design a little stud dwarf wall to put behind the bath to put the taps on it.
So the question is, do we put a wall to wall large mirror on the wall behind the bath or not, will it be tacky or a wow factor?
(We have plans to put blinds on the window as a privacy factor too!)

POLL: Exposed brick - yay or nay?
Comments (32)I agree with Rennew Traditional Building Materials - it's not a question of what's 'trending' or 'passé', but of really paying attention to the existing building and marrying that with the sensibility of the future inhabitant. Some spaces suit the industrial treatment, some don't, and no-one should be forced to be fashionable. I can't help thinking of the old Bauhaus principle of 'truth to materials' though. If you find yourself faking an 'authentically exposed' surface, then something isn't quite clicking in your analysis of what's in front of your nose. Not that I wasn't once taken in by an entirely ersatz 'industrial' café in Paris once, which was not, as I'd supposed, a converted butchers! The convincingly-aged metro tiles were to die for......See MorePOLL: Yay or nay - open plan kitchens?
Comments (206)We are often approached by clients who are creating an open plan kitchen, dining and living area. To overcome some of the issues we make cabinetry which can hide away the usual clutter found in a busy kitchen. Bi-fold and pocketing doors are great in this instance as ovens and even sinks can be hidden away, making the cabinetry seem more like a piece of furniture than a kitchen. Our clients love being able to change the look of a space in an instance! It is crucial to make sure you choose your appliances carefully, i.e. a quiet dishwasher and a good extractor are of huge benefit here. As long as the space is thoughtfully planned there is no reason that it shouldn't work functional and aesthetically....See MorePOLL: En suite bathroom - yay or nay?
Comments (78)An ensuite to the master bedroom is a great asset in a family home, reducing the morning stampede to the family bathroom. It also helps create that sense of luxury, adult space. A sanctuary away from the rest of the family....See MoreA Freestanding Bath in a Bedroom: Yay or Nay?
Comments (25)Definitely! I think these can work fantastically, but only if the room is large enough to carry it. Freestanding baths in bedrooms work well when the room is not already over crowded with furniture. If you have a separate dressing room and the bedroom is still large enough, then sure, they can really make a feature of the room....See MoreSuzanne C

last yearPlastering about to start next week in the bathroom, we have scrapped the idea of tiles, mirrors or a mural and we are going for a painted wood panel effect with a stone shelf on a dwarf wall. Similar to this picture below...
