Choosing the color of the walls in the hallway

The choice of color in the design of the hallway plays a very important role. It depends on how spacious and comfortable the room will be. When choosing suitable finishing materials and colors, you should take into account both the advice of designers and your own wishes.

Both dark and light colors are suitable for decorating the walls in the hallway.

Many people note the attractiveness and practicality of dark shades. A corridor decorated in blue, dark green or brown looks very stylish.

In a small room without windows, light finishing materials look good. The universal colors are gray, beige and white. They look great both on their own and in combination with other shades. To make a room made in such colors look not too empty, its walls can be decorated with beautiful pictures or photographs.

Various pastel colors are also often used to decorate the corridor:

• pistachio;
• olive;
• lilac;
• blue;
• mint;
• peach.

Such delicate shades make the room cozy and inviting. It is worth noting that the lighter the decoration of the room, the fewer sources of artificial lighting you need to install in it. In addition, such finishing materials help to hide various wall defects.

Many designers refuse to use bright colors in the interior of bedrooms due to the fact that such a color scheme puts too much pressure on a person. In the corridor, it is quite possible to experiment with unusual shades. You can use grassy green, turquoise, yellow or orange to decorate the room. Saturated shades of red, for example, burgundy or coral, look beautiful in the interior of modern hallways.

When decorating the entrance group, it is also important to think about the correct combination of different colors.

It is recommended to use contrasting colors when decorating a room only in spacious hallways. To make the corridor seem cozy, it is worth choosing a warm palette.

A room with a simple geometric print also looks beautiful. The strips can be placed both horizontally and vertically.

Often, when decorating the walls in the corridor, one of them is made bright, and the rest are painted in a light color. At the same time, the two selected shades should be well combined with each other, as well as in harmony with the floor and ceiling. One of the walls can also be decorated with decorative panels.

For wall decoration in the hallway, you can also choose wallpaper with simple prints. The colors on them should be in harmony with each other. For example, blue, coffee or gray patterns look great on white or beige wallpaper.

When choosing colors for finishing a corridor, designers are advised to take into account several main factors.

1. Room area. If the room is small and narrow, it is better to use light finishing materials and furnishings for its decoration. This finish perfectly expands the space. Dark shades, on the contrary, conceal the area. Therefore, they should only be used in spacious lobbies.
2. Configuration. In a hallway with low walls, wallpaper with vertical stripes is often used. They help to visually pull the room up. The spacious corridor can be divided into zones using different colors. Typically, designers allocate a space at the entrance and a separate space next to the closet or built-in wardrobe. The rest of the room in this case is decorated in a different color and is a walk-through area.
3. Materials used. If the room uses a finish with an interesting rough or patterned texture, do not make it too bright. In such a room, it is more appropriate to paint the walls with pastel colors. It is also important to consider in advance how the wall covering will be combined with the floor and ceiling finishes.

The choice of style also plays an important role in the design of a small room.

The entrance lobby in a classic style looks good both in a small apartment and in a large one. To decorate such a room, you can use different shades of brown, as well as colors such as cappuccino and beige. The combination of blue and gold also looks good in a small hallway. This option is great for spacious lobbies.

In a luxurious room with an abundance of decorative elements, the background can be made both light and dark. When planning the design of such a corridor, you can pay attention to different shades of pink, blue and purple. This color scheme goes well with copper or gilded furniture fittings.

This style perfectly combines various monochrome shades. A room made in white, black or gray looks restrained and attractive.

This style attracts all lovers of French classics. For the decoration of the room, pastel muted colors are usually used, for example, pistachio, lavender or olive. They go well with furniture and decorative finishes made of light wood.

Wallpaper with a simple plant print also looks beautiful in such a room. It is desirable that it be light and unobtrusive.

The walls in the loft-style hallway can be painted, masonry or plaster. A dark color scheme works best for this style. As a background for furniture and decor, you can use a gray concrete or dark brick finish. Decorative inserts in black or brown also look beautiful. They go well with glass.

Today, not only modern trends are popular, but also retro style. For the decoration of such a room, light paints or faded wallpaper are used. The color range can be gray, pink or blue. Striped wallpaper or finishing materials with a checkered pattern fit perfectly into this style.
