Furniture in the hallway or corridor must be functional and comfortable, and it is also very important that it be in harmony with the overall interior of the room. Entering a house or apartment, people immediately find themselves in the corridor. That is why furniture should be especially carefully chosen in this room, because it will be the hallmark of housing. Next, we will take a closer look at ready-made hallways with shoe racks and other filling, consider their advantages and disadvantages, as well as various design options and ready-made examples in the interior.

Advantages and disadvantages

A hallway with a shoe rack can be safely called multifunctional furniture, because it can store not only clothes and various accessories, but also shoes.

  • The undoubted advantage of this type of furniture is that it comes in a huge variety of models, colors and sizes. You can choose a suitable hallway without any problems for a corridor of any size.
  • Most of the hallway models are made from safe, durable and natural materials, and they are also affordable. Many of these hallways are much cheaper to install than a built-in wardrobe made to order.
  • Shoebox models are usually quite compact, and some of them are also very light in weight. If necessary, they can be transferred without any problems, for example, during repairs.

Of the minuses, it is worth noting that some manufacturers still produce irrelevant "old type" models that can ruin the entire interior of the corridor.

It is worth choosing such pieces of furniture very carefully, giving preference to modern design and models from new collections. And if necessary, use the help of specialists.

Also affordable pieces of furniture of this type, as a rule, are limited by the size range, and their design may be the simplest, for many this moment may also be a disadvantage.

Species overview

Today, domestic and foreign furniture manufacturers offer a huge variety of different models of hallways equipped with a shoe rack. It is a special piece of furniture built into the hallway.

  • Entrance hall with a mirror, hooks for clothes and a seat under which a shoe rack is located. This type of furniture is considered very convenient and practical. Especially advantageous look such models, complemented by a seat and back made of leather or eco-leather with the design of the "carriage tie". They perfectly match the classic style of the interior.
  • Another type of hallway with a shoe rack can be considered a model with a wardrobe, a mirror, a shelf for hats and other hats and hooks for clothes. This hallway can be equipped with an open or closed shoe rack. For small corridors, we still recommend considering a small hallway with a closed shoe rack.
  • For spacious rooms, hallway walls with a shoe rack are suitable, which also include a spacious wardrobe, a clothes hanger, a small mirror, shelves and drawers for storing various things.
  • Modular hallways with shoe racks are in great demand now. Their peculiarity is that they can be made according to individual sizes, as well as independently choose the color you like and the inner filling. The undoubted drawback is the high price tag, with all this, such pieces of furniture are very often designer.

The dimensions of furniture in width, height and depth may vary depending on the model and manufacturer, the same applies to colors and the palette as a whole.The content itself may also differ.

Design options

In order not to spoil the interior of the room, we recommend choosing a hallway that suits it in style, paying special attention to its design.

  • For the classic style of the interior of the apartment, you can consider purchasing a hallway made of light wood with an open shoe rack. Cream and beige shades of wood, as well as the shade of "bleached oak" look advantageous. A classic entrance hall can be decorated with carved décor, and drawer handles or hooks can be made of gold or bronze metal.

The shoe seat and backrest can be made of textiles or leather. From the design, a carriage coupler is welcomed.

  • For a modern loft style, we recommend choosing a hallway made of natural wood, for example, pine, in combination with metal elements. We advise you to pay attention to the option of a modular hallway with open shelves for storing shoes.
  • For a modern high-tech style, in which monochrome shades prevail, we recommend considering a black and white hallway with a closed shoe rack. The advantage of such a hallway is the mass of open shelves on which you can place a variety of interior items.

Such hallways look advantageous with glossy facades and metal handles on cabinet doors and drawers.

  • For hi-tech and minimalist styles, you can also choose an entrance hall with glossy or matte facades and integrated handles. In this case, it is preferable if the shoe rack is of a closed type.

Selection Tips

When choosing furniture for your house or apartment, it is very important to take into account some points that can largely affect the final result in the arrangement of the home.

  • We take into account the size of the room. The hallway should not look too bulky or too inconspicuous. In any case, we recommend that you pay attention to modular hallways, which you can assemble at your discretion, as well as choose the necessary filling for them.
  • We take into account the style. It is very important to choose the right hallway for the finished interior. So, in a classic interior with wallpaper with monograms and parquet, a hallway with glossy facades and integrated handles is probably not suitable. And vice versa: beautiful carvings on the fronts of furniture and a carriage tie on the back of the seat will be out of place in a modern interior.
  • We do not save on materials. This criterion is especially important to take into account if there is a desire to supply furniture not for 1-2 years, but for tens of years. Moreover, when choosing high-quality furniture, for example, solid wood, you can be sure that it is environmentally friendly, durable and easy to clean.
  • As for open and closed shoe racks, then many designers agree that it is best to purchase the second option. This is due to practicality. In closed shoe racks, the shoes will not be visible, and they will not become too dusty. In the end, closed shoe racks look more aesthetically pleasing.

Examples in the interior

We recommend paying attention to the luxurious entrance hall in dark walnut color, equipped with a seat and backrest made of emerald green leather. This combination of shades looks elegant and noble, it will certainly emphasize the special taste of the home owners. The shoe rack is located directly under the seat.

Another hallmark of the home can be an ergonomic and at the same time roomy entrance hall in a light shade, equipped with a wardrobe with shelves, several mezzanines and, of course, a shoe rack, above which there is an ottoman. The peculiarity of the model is undoubtedly the discreet design and leather inserts.

We also recommend paying attention to a compact model of a hallway made of solid wood and veneer with a tall cabinet designed for storing shoes. The undoubted advantage of the model is the presence of several mirrors (one of them is located on the door), as well as multifunctional filling.
