Most often, apartment owners have to put up with a small and inconvenient hallway of an elongated shape.

Expert of the online publication BelNovosti, designer Yulia Tychino, does not agree with this state of affairs and offers a solution that will visually expand the room.

And it consists of non-standard painting of the walls.

A combination of different colors will help to slightly correct the shape and, in addition, attract attention.

A great way out of this situation would be a color block, for which you need to choose two rich contrasting shades and apply them to adjacent walls in such a way that one slightly occupies the “territory” of the other.

However, there is another option, which is to “flood” the room with color.

Try using paint that flows freely from the cabinet to the floor, including the door.

The main thing to consider if you decide to follow the designer's advice is that the paint should be of high quality and versatile so that it can be used on different surfaces, be it tiles, wood or plastic.
