Wall- use mirrors to reflect what you want to see, it will provide more light and hopefully the illusion of space. Can you put it on landscape orientation on the wall?

So the primary focus of a splashback really should be function for sure – it needs to be a smooth surface that can be wiped clean quickly, effectively and bw waterproof. But that’s not to say the splashback shouldn’t look terrific in the process, either. These days they are anything from tiles, glass, acrylic, pressed metal.. even art! :) I'm gauging from the responses so far mirrors 'do' tend to go 'hand in hand' with hand washing. On this particular project it wasn't a necessity and offered an opportunity to try something away from conventional design so to speak and allow for a corner art splashback to take pride of place in an unexpected place. I'm enjoying the comments and the thoughts Houzzers are sharing on this poll. Civic Steel I've been informed more selfies have been taken in that small bathroom than any other place in the home recently which was amusing to find out :) and Jmm1837 I've completed many feature walls and art installations, I may possibly have to consider working 'around' a mirror on future backsplash projects. Thanks also for the compliments re the work. :)

Thank you so much everyone for all the fantastic ideas. I'm glad I posted here. Your pictures all look amazing too. I never considered a mirrored cabinet at first - I didn't think they looked as sophisticated! But the drawers just don't provide enough storage and I think I will go with that - it will satisfy my desire for a large mirror too! I love the "round the corner" idea for getting a good view of my hair dos! Thanks again everyone :-)

Not a terrible idea at all. I placed two mirrors across each other in our small bathroom. The mirrors are not of the same width but are the same design and at the same height to maintain simplicity. One narrow mirror above the basin, same width as the basin and tall enough so that our tallest family member at 2m can see their face. The WC also sits next to the basin but I did not want to extend the mirror from the basin. The wall space above the WC allowed for decorative items, eg artwork; narrow display shelf to add interest and texture. Directly opposite the basin and WC is a wide cabinet, and a large mirror to cover that width of cabinet and at the same height as the basin mirror. This mirror also reflects the artwork above the WC. It reflects so much more light and creates a wonderful feeling of space.
