Mirror Placement: Right, It Expands Space; Wrong, It Reveals Flaws

Only two areas in the space use mirrors, their positions deliberately calculated: one is a full-height mirror on the side wall of the dance floor, from floor to 2400mm high, visually doubling the number of people and lights on the dance floor; the other is a narrow mirror strip behind the bar, allowing guests to see what's happening behind them without turning their heads. Ceilings use no mirrors at all, as this would expose light fixtures and hanging structures. The mirrors are aged, with mottled oxidation, so reflections are blurred and will not clearly show the back-of-house or fire safety equipment. The mirrors have no trim, connecting directly to the black walls. Avoid: ceilings using mirrors, mirrors using new clear surfaces, mirrors reflecting back-of-house and emergency exits, adding decorative mirror frames.

空間裡只有兩處使用鏡面,位置經過刻意計算:一是舞池側牆的一整片鏡,從地坪到 2400mm 高,讓舞池的人數與燈光在視覺上加倍;二是吧台背後的一道窄鏡帶,讓客人可以不轉頭就看見身後的動靜。天花完全不用鏡面,因為會把燈具本體與吊掛結構暴露出來。鏡面是做舊的,有斑駁的氧化,所以反射是模糊的,不會清楚映出後場與消防設備。鏡子四周不做收邊,直接與黑牆相接。避免:天花使用鏡面、鏡子使用全新清晰的鏡面、鏡子映出後場與逃生門、加入裝飾性的鏡框。
