Owners of apartments in multi-story buildings often complain about the layout. For unknown reasons, useful space sometimes turns into useless space.

An example would be a huge balcony or loggia against the backdrop of a small room or a long corridor. But this can be solved if you use your imagination.

Here are some ideas to help you transform your hallway into a functional space.

1. To make the hallway seem shorter, you shouldn't over-clutter it, because it's often narrow. Therefore, there should be a minimum of furniture, it should match the color of the walls, and the design should be functional.

2. Lighting. The problem with dark corners cannot be solved otherwise, but it must be done, because dark corners hide volume.

3. An excellent solution would be to place art objects. These could be photographs and paintings, maps and other objects.

4. To hide the flaws, you need to perform a distracting maneuver. This can be done with the help of bright and contrasting elements, different textures, in other words - make it so that the eye cannot concentrate on the visible flaws of the room.

5. And finally, a great solution would be to place a library in the hallway. Bookcases do not require as much space as wardrobes, and they can also serve as an interior decoration.
