Design of a small hallway
Not all have a spacious hall. Especially old houses can not boast such desired square meters. After all, before the hallway was not given such attention, as now. Its area was minimal, so that only the hanger and the shoe shelf fit. But in this space, you can create an original design. You just need to consider small secrets in order to maximize the use of the hall space, place everything you need:

The style most acceptable for smallHallway, minimalism. Unfortunately, to prevent the premises from becoming a landfill, one must abandon the abundance of decor and hide things in the closet. An open coat rack with a heap of clothes does not look aesthetically pleasing.

It is best to put in a small hallwaycloset. All things will be collected in one place, safely hidden behind the sliding door. Thanks to the sliding door, even in the open, the cabinet will not take up unnecessary space. Moreover, the mirror in the door facade visually enlarges the space.

Compact furniture. If the closet is unacceptable for some reason, it is better to put a standard wardrobe with hangers placed across it. This will make it possible to reduce its width to 45 centimeters. If the ceilings are high, then you can add mezzanines to the closet.

Corner cupboard. It takes a place that is usually empty - corners. At an apparent small size, it is very roomy and compact.

Shelf or chest of drawers for shoes. The shoes scattered on the floor in disorder do not create any aesthetic or functional comfort. In addition, furniture for shoes can be made to order any width and height, taking into account its number.

The interior door that opens into the hallway should not be made deaf. With a glass insert it will let light into the hall when closed, which will visually increase it.

Walls and furniture in a small hallway should beLight. But do not overdo it with very light shades, wanting to visually increase the space - they will be visible any, even insignificant, dirt.

Do not forget the importance of lighting. In the hallway there are usually no windows, there is no natural lighting. The lack of fixtures can make it smaller and darker.
Design of a narrow hallway
The problem of a narrow and long hallway is where and howPlace furniture. After all, in addition, how to place things more compactly, it is necessary to solve the task of smoothing a large difference in the size of the walls. If the room is too long, then it can be zoned, dividing into place for clothes, shoes and a hall. With this task are doing quite well Multi-level ceilings, Combined coating of floor and walls.
Visually increase the space will help mirrors,Which are located on longer walls, or wall-papers with a pronounced perspective. A good correction of the space of the long hallway is the absence of an interior door, when the doorway changes to an arch.
You can align the rectangle using colorsolutions. Lighter tones on long walls move them apart, and dark shades on narrow ones bring closer, making the room square and pleasant for visual perception. To beat the length of the room can be lamps, placing them in the center, leaving the end walls in the penumbra.

Features angular hallway
The advantage of the corner cabinet has long been appreciatedOwners of small rooms. This is the most rational use of space. To that you will be pleasantly surprised that besides clothes, shoes, umbrellas and hats there will fit a vacuum cleaner, a children's bicycle or a stroller. The facade decorated with a mirror will make such a roomy closet almost weightless and invisible even in a very small hallway.

If there is a staircase in the hallway
Designers recommend using a ladder inHallway with maximum effect. After all, there is so much unoccupied space under it where the shelves for shoes, umbrellas and hats, hangers for children's clothes and many other necessary trifles can fit. If the hallway Combined with living room, Then under the stairs you can place books or equipment, and, putting a cozy armchair with a floor lamp, spending time in seclusion with a book or favorite music.

Entrance hall in a small apartment
Design of small areas Complicated by their ill-considered planning. The hallway is most often a long narrow room, the placement of doors in which excludes any arrangement of furniture, or a vestibule, a small and burdened pile of doors to other rooms. The solution of the hall space in the Khrushchev square is two: redevelopment, cleaning the door In the hall and To the kitchen, Or a color solution that visually enhancesSpace, with the right selection of furniture. If the first option is not always acceptable, then the second one will bring pleasant troubles and aesthetic pleasure. That the hall in Khrushchevka was compact and functional it is necessary:
- Choose the right color scheme. Furniture and walls should be fairly light, but not white in color, otherwise all dirt will be visible.

What furniture to pick up in a small corridor
The entrance hall requires a detailed arrangement of at least a living room or kitchen. After all, it needs to accommodate a large number of things that are out of place in other rooms of the apartment.
Furniture for the hallway can be divided into three types:
- Functional where you can hide things and shoes. These are all kinds of curbstones, chests of drawers, built-in and cabinet cases, hinged shelves, shoe stores.
- Furniture for rest. These are all kinds of padded stools, benches, chairs or chairs.

- Wardrobe or clothes hanger;
- Chest of drawers, shelves for shoes;
- Ottoman or chair;
