Just as a theater begins with a hanger, so does an apartment begin with a corridor. Therefore, during the repair, you need to devote a lot of time to the design of your corridor.
Corridor – one of the small rooms in the apartment. And, its interior should be cozy and most importantly functional. In many apartments, the corridor is a narrow room, consisting of two walls located close to each other, in which it is cramped even without furniture. But, the methods by which the narrow corridor will become wider and more convenient.
The design of a narrow corridor in the apartment begins with the preparation of the plan. At the beginning, they draw a sketch of the room, taking into account their own wishes and the size of the furniture. For example, the wishes include the width of the corridor. The corridor can be expanded if you reduce the area of the room next to it. But, if the wall is a carrier, and the room is already small, they expand the corridor “visually”. For example, a built-in wardrobe in the corridor will not only be useful in terms of storing things, but will also “expand” the narrow space. To do this, they supply the cabinet doors with mirrors or install a sliding wardrobe with mirrored doors. Mirrors will also improve the lighting of the corridor. Now they produce mirrors with a special surface, when light falls on the lower inclined part of the mirror, it is reflected in its vertical upper plane.
Another way to “visually” expand the corridor is color. Opposite walls should be in contrasting colors. For example, a wall with a closet will be the color of a tree, and the opposite is white.
You can also decorate the hallway with the help of a photo gallery. Choose photo frames of the same color, but different shapes and sizes. Narrow tabletops are attached along the walls, photographs and other decorative elements are placed on their surface. Next, mirrors are placed, but in such a way that beautiful, elegant things are reflected in them. And the hallway will seem wider and originality does not take.
But, if the corridor is very narrow and small, the design of a small hallway can be created by limiting yourself to a hanger, a compact wardrobe and a shoe rack.
Of great importance is the floor of the corridor. People enter the hallway from the street, their shoes may be wet and unclean. Therefore, the floor covering should be easy to clean and be moisture resistant. One of the options is a tile that matches the color of the walls of the corridor in color.
A stylish look to the corridor will also be given by original things, such as an umbrella holder, a pouffe, a magazine rack, a shelf for a phone and small accessories.
Hallway – a small but very important room in the apartment. A cozy, tastefully decorated entrance hall cheers up both the owners and guests of the house.
