Any apartment starts with a hallway! Or 5 practical tips for decorating your entrance to your home

You are unlikely to spend a lot of time in the hallway. However, the entrance to the apartment, thought out to the smallest detail, will allow you, crossing its threshold, to enjoy not only returning home, but also the surrounding beauty and comfort.

Good afternoon dear friends!

With all this, some still treat this uninhabited space with slight disdain and do it in vain! Since the hallway is a person, a “visiting card” not only of the house, but also of its owners. And the first impression about one and the other is formed here. Therefore, in order not to be among the "lagging behind", I strongly recommend that you try and approach the design of this space creatively and wisely.

And how to do this and at the same time avoid common mistakes, I will try to tell you in this material.

1.Reasonable layout. The first mistake many make when arranging a hallway is furnishing the space with ready-made furniture! Indeed, with this approach, there is virtually no possibility of optimal use of an already modest room. Therefore, it is best to take your time, wait a little, postponing the purchase, and then order the cabinets (bench, console ...) according to an individual project with dimensions that correspond 100% to your hallway.

And do not forget that factory furniture is a commonplace thing that can overnight nullify all your efforts in arranging and decorating your apartment. What is fundamentally unreasonable!

2.Furnishings. Everything should be in moderation! You should not be zealous with quantity and volume. Keep all the details modest yet functional and practical. And the main thing is that all objects have a common thread, confirming that each element of the interior is interconnected, and together they represent an integral composition.

At the same time, you should not give up (if possible) one of the main elements of the furnishings (console, shoe rack, ottoman, mirror, plants ...). Think carefully before making this decision. After all, such "things" make the hallway both comfortable and effective at the same time.

3.Difficult symbiosis. It's no secret that the hallway must solve a number of serious problems, namely! First of all, it must contain all street clothes, shoes and accessories. And only then be responsible for the initial presentation of the rest of the house. Therefore, it is extremely important to strike a balance between practicality and beauty.

Therefore, when choosing finishes, decor, light, furniture and accessories for it, you should not give up one in favor of the other. Everything should be both practical and visually aesthetically pleasing!

4.Eclecticism will not pass. Another common mistake that occurs when decorating a hallway is mismatched furniture and accessories. Which does not appear immediately, but later! And it does not always look, it is far from always appropriate! As a result, in the hallway there are “things” alien to the general style of the interior, purchased for the occasion or for the mood.

Don't flatter yourself! Combining incompatible things is a whole science. Therefore, if you have a need to bring this or that object (accessory) into the hallway, then try to pick it up within the general style of the interior.

5.A unique touch. Even a constructively absurd entrance to an apartment, with the right approach, can be turned into something cool and unique. You just need to know one design trick! Coy involves placing a visually interesting decorative element on the wall directly opposite the entrance so that guests can immediately appreciate the taste preferences of the owner of the house. It can be a bright mirror, a modern painting, or a unique poster.

The main thing is to bring the decor to the fore!
