Mirror, Mirror
Modern bathroom mirrors and mirror cabinets combine technology, comfort, and style.

Often overlooked yet essential to daily routines, the mirror is a staple in every bathroom. Whether brushing teeth, styling hair, or checking one’s appearance before stepping out, it plays a vital role. In contemporary bathrooms, however, the mirror is no longer just a reflective surface—it has evolved into a smart design element that combines function, organization, and elegance.

Elegant and Minimalist: The Bathroom Mirror

When harmonized with the washbasin and surrounding furniture, a bathroom mirror enhances the wash area both visually and functionally. Integrated LED lighting ensures optimal illumination, casting even, shadow-free light that is ideal for grooming and personal care. In windowless bathrooms, the lighting also acts as a stand-in for natural daylight, creating a warm and inviting atmosphere.

Many modern mirrors offer adjustable brightness and color temperature, allowing users to switch between cozy, warm lighting in the evening and crisp, daylight-like brightness in the morning. With dimmable features and ambient lighting, the light itself becomes a visual highlight—transforming the bathroom into a stylish, feel-good space. Additionally, integrated mirror heating keeps the surface clear and fog-free after showers, ensuring uninterrupted functionality.

Tidy and Stylish: The Mirror Cabinet

For bathrooms where space is at a premium, mirror cabinets offer a clever solution. Positioned at eye level, they provide practical storage space without compromising aesthetics—perfect for keeping daily essentials organized and easily accessible. The result: a clean, uncluttered appearance that enhances the overall ambiance.

Many models come equipped with integrated power outlets, allowing direct use of hair dryers, shavers, and other styling tools. As with stand-alone mirrors, LED lighting is built in to ensure ideal visibility for grooming tasks.

Given the naturally humid environment of bathrooms, Duravit mirror cabinets are engineered to IP44 standards for splash protection, making them suitable for use in wet rooms. Designed with closed edges and manufactured 100% in Germany, they offer outstanding quality, durability, and peace of mind.
