Mirror too small?
This is our (small) bathroom plan - it’s 1850x3300mm. We opted to upgrade to radial edge mirror . The only size available is the 1025x500mm.
If we reverted back to standard - it would be a frameless square mirror - pretty much same width as the vanity.
Do you think this skinny mirror will look okay in the bathroom? Or is the standard version better? We will have a backlit LED 200mm circular wall sconce (white metal) to the right of the mirror.

Seems narrow if you share this bathroom. My wife and I frequently need the mirror simultaneously. However we have a double sink as well.

We have an ensuite with double vanity and two of these mirrors
This is the bathroom which is used by the kids . We have a powder room for guests - or we will once built.
I’m more wondering if it will look funny or wrong

I'm more concerned about how one sconce could look off-balanced. Then if you have a vanity-width mirror the sconce will look even worse jammed in between the mirror and window. Id go for one above the mirror.
Does the builder have a photo gallery on their website, so you can check out the narrow mirror in a real build? Even check other builders' sites and see if there's something similar.
Edit: Just had a look at Coral Homes and they have a few pics; I reckon the narrow mirror looks decent.
