Small ideas of a large hallway and corridor

A huge number of publications are devoted to how to repair a bedroom, children's room, living room or kitchen. Of course, these premises are the basis of any home. But do not forget about auxiliary spaces, such as an entrance hall, corridors, pantry, laundry room, attic and platforms between floors. Among the utilitarian rooms there are those that are usually hidden from the eyes of the guests, only the owners get into the pantry or basement. But our publication will be devoted to spaces that are on public display and are often the first that anyone entering a household or apartment sees. Entrance halls, corridors, small areas near stairs - these spaces do not just perform the function of connecting living rooms, they can be used from a practical and aesthetic point of view.

The purpose of the hallway can definitely be described as a room that “meets” anyone entering the home. Unfortunately, in the framework of standard-type city apartments, the entrance hall is represented by a very small space, where there is hardly enough space to place a storage system for outerwear and seasonal shoes for the whole family. But if your hallway has enough space, then the ideas for the design organization of this auxiliary room from our selection of images are for you.

Built-in storage is the most common furniture option for a medium-sized entrance. Such a headset can become not only a functional subject of all outer clothing and shoes, but also decorate your room, diversify the color palette.

Think about what style the interior of your hallway will be done. If we are talking about a country house, then the country style or eco-style will look very organic, provided that they do not contradict the interior of the entire home ownership. Wooden arrays for storage systems are perfectly combined with doorways decorated with the same wood species. Tiles on the floor of the hallway will certainly make your life easier in terms of daily care, especially if the house has small children and pets.

The interior with a light rural touch will provide you with country elements in the hallway, textile on the windows, wicker baskets for umbrellas, wooden benches, and handmade decor.

The hallway room, fully lined with wooden panels, not only sets us up for country life, but also gives us the warmth of natural shades, coziness and home comfort.

Rational use of all the space provided to residents gives incredible results. As a result, you can organize a soft zone directly under the stairs, where some of the steps serve as shelves for all kinds of little things.

In this hallway there are no standard cabinets for clothes and shelves for shoes, there is not even a stand for umbrellas. But there is a comfortable daybed with pillows, a mirror chest of drawers, a luxurious chandelier and all this in the snow-white finish of a spacious room.

Many people prefer not to clutter the hallway space so that there is a lot of room for maneuver for several people entering or leaving the room at once. A modest bench, a small shelf and a picture on the wall - that’s the whole situation for a minimalist entrance in snow-white tones.

If you are interested in an exclusively modern style for decorating a spacious entrance hall, then decorative design elements, artworks and futuristic-looking objects will come in handy. In this hallway, the surprise of anyone entering begins to appear at the door of a non-trivial design. A spacious room with a neutral finish strikes, first of all, with a set of decor.

And some hallways are so spacious and luxurious that they can afford a fireplace with a built-in soft zone. Wood and stone in the decoration of an unusual room added natural warmth to the space.

Depending on the size of your auxiliary premises, they can serve not only as guides from one point of movement to another, but also become a library, serve as a place for placing collectibles, artwork or family photos. In the corridors, you can successfully place all kinds of storage systems, for which living rooms often do not have enough space.

Book shelves of open and combined type are frequent representatives of furniture in spacious corridors. This snow-white design with bright background inserts has become a practical storage system and an interesting decor item for an auxiliary room.

The lighting system integrated in the book shelves helps not only to organize additional lighting in the corridor, but also to identify the most expensive exhibits on the open shelves for homeowners.

Such bookshelves do not take up much space and do not interfere with movement along the corridor, but at the same time they are very spacious and create a certain symmetry in the arrangement of the interior of the corridor.

Here is an original way to use the front of the built-in storage system before entering the kitchen space. Open shelves can be used as a bookcase, display case or wine cabinet.

If the spaces of corridors or vestibules in front of the living rooms are large enough, then why not place comfortable places for rest there. The soft seats located near the windows can organize a reading or creativity corner. For the dark, you can place a floor lamp nearby, or hang the lamp on the wall.

In this luxurious corridor with arched openings, it was possible to organically combine the storage system and a place to relax, combining furniture manufacturing materials with textiles and original pendant lamps.

Some corridors with their width even allow you to organize jobs placed in a niche. The snow-white wall decoration using decorative panels and moldings to match the furniture created a luxurious, but at the same time cozy atmosphere.

Another example of the organization of the workplace in front of the entrance to the common room. A small console with a table lamp and a chair - what else is needed for a mini-cabinet?

In this bright, pastel-decorated corridor, luxurious chandeliers of an unusual design became the center of attention. Among the modest, very minimalist atmosphere of the corridor, lighting elements stand out first.

For many homeowners, a corridor is a space with empty walls where you can place artwork or unusual decor items that couldn’t find room in living rooms.

And this corridor is an example of how you can maximize the use of all available space to accommodate interesting art objects.

Collectors and family photos found in unusual niches found refuge in this corridor. The brickwork of one of the walls became a color bridge between the snow-white palette of the corridor and the reddish wood flooring.

In this spacious corridor of home ownership, made in a mixture of country and loft styles, there was a place for a hanging wicker chair of a famous designer. To “soften” the cool palette of large rooms for the design of windows, textiles were used, and the floor tiles were decorated with a rug with colored ornaments.

The space in the attic, where the ceilings have the greatest slope, is quite complicated to design. But here you can organize storage systems that will not interfere with the movement of households along the corridor, but at the same time allow you to place a fairly large number of things. Of course, in the case of asymmetric, small rooms, a light finish on all surfaces will be preferable.

This room, located at the entrance to the back patio, is decorated with a large aplomb. A bright decorative element matching the carpet has become the focus of attention among carved armchairs and sculptures.

And these auxiliary rooms, made in a modern style with an admixture of minimalism, are suitable for homeowners who do not want to place cabinets or racks in the corridors, but gravitate towards works of art.

For all homeowners, in whose dwellings there are more than one level, sooner or later the question arises of arranging spaces near stairs and platforms between floors. Of course, these rooms can be used as a background for an original and beautiful decor, but you should not forget about the functional load of utilitarian spaces.

Wooden flooring to match the furniture, large mirrors, seating areas - everything in this space near the stairs works not only to create a luxurious interior, but also to organize a comfortable environment for all households.

This chic room adjacent to the stairs is decorated in warm pastel colors and replete with all kinds of decor. But an eclectic selection of jewelry for space does not hurt the eyes, but only offers to take a closer look at an interesting setting.

This small space near the stairs is decorated as a mini-living room. A soft small sofa and tables with lamps organized a cozy and comfortable place for reading and talking. Perhaps this recreation area will not be used every day, but during receptions, dinner parties and just a crowd of a large number of guests, it will come in handy.

Another example of organizing a small place to relax and chat near flights of stairs. A harmonious combination of built-in furniture and cabinet furniture, modern elements and antique decor, original color schemes - all this helped to create a really cozy and elegant atmosphere of the room.

In these rooms, located near the stairs, it was possible to build in not only a storage system for clothes and shoes, but also a place where you can sit down to put on shoes with comfort. The use of a single wood species for steps and furniture creates a harmoniously designed room.

Stairs can also be useful in terms of placement of storage systems or decor items. A bright palette of finishing auxiliary rooms helps not to strain the eyes in spaces that are often not equipped with windows and are closed, modest in size.

The country style in its purest manifestation is reflected in the interior of this room near the stairs. The abundance of wooden surfaces combined with stone trim create the atmosphere of a luxurious country house.
