Answer

Using mirrors under stairs amplifies natural light, making tight nooks feel more open and inviting. Position a gleaming mirror to reflect daylight and uplight, doubling brightness without clutter. This trick creates an effortless focal point that supports calm and safety. Mirrors require no maintenance and serve as mood elevators, improving balance between shadow and light in challenging architectural spaces.
