The hallway is the first thing a person sees when entering a house. Much depends on the first impression: both the mood of your guests and your own, because you enter your hallway every day.
It is necessary
- - Continuous carpet with a bright pattern;

- - lamp with rheostat;
- - console table or shelf;
- - large mirror;

Instructions
Step 1
Place a solid carpet in a large hallway with a bright and large pattern. The purpose of this interior detail, like all details with a large pattern, is to make the hallway visually larger and lighter. However, for a small hallway, such a solution is not applicable, it will be as inappropriate as a dress with a large pattern on a petite woman.
Step 2
Cover the hallway with wallpaper with a large pattern, if its size allows it. Choose a lamp that will brightly illuminate the entire space. Install a light with a rheostat so you can dim and dim the light when the hallway is empty, but don't leave it completely dark.
Step 3
Install a small console table or shelf for small items. This will not only help to keep things in order, but also decorate the interior. Remove all the little things from the console table and install a vase of flowers or other decoration in case of receiving guests.
Step 4
Hang a large mirror in front of the door; this can be done even in a small hallway, provided that other things will not cover it. In bright light, this will visually enlarge the room.
Step 5
Place a bench or a low stool against the wall at the entrance, you can put a bag there, freeing your hands from things immediately upon entering the house. Make the bench comfortable enough to sit down and rest a little.
Step 6
Follow some general rules to visually enlarge a small hallway: give up wall decoration with wood, stone, thick plaster, use smooth vinyl or non-woven wallpaper.
Step 7
Use light colors in the decoration of walls, floors and ceilings: white, milky, gray, coffee. If there is no specific overall color scheme, the best color for the ceiling is white.
Step 8
Attach a hanger with hooks to the wall instead of a closet or a hanger with shelves and a bottom shelf if the hallway is narrow and long. Don't force her with furniture. Hang several sconces in such a hallway for local illumination of several places.
