What is a typical hallway like? Cramped, uncomfortable, darkened.

In most cases, this space has little light and free space.

And everything would be fine, but the front door is the “face” of the apartment!

This is the first thing we see when entering a home. This is where guests first appear.

Therefore, the hallway needs to be made more comfortable, cozy, beautiful and bright.

Obvious measures: installing several lamps and replacing the chairs with a bench or ottomans.

In addition, you need to hide shoes that you definitely won’t need at the current time of year.

And you also need to choose the right color for the walls and furniture. Yulia Tychino, an expert in the field of design and interior design for the online publication BelNovosti, told us about the three best options for color design of the hallway.

Ideal colors for the front

According to the specialist, the background in this part of the apartment should be light.

In this case, the space will no longer seem narrow and dark.

The best colors for the hallway are the following:

  • white;
  • cream;
  • light gray.

You should avoid motley colors. Perhaps this design option would be suitable for a bedroom or living room. But the hallway should be decorated neutrally. Otherwise, there will be a feeling of disorder and untidiness.

Earlier, the designer named a color that is not suitable for the bedroom.
