The hallways in any home should not be neglected when it comes to interior design. These rooms are the introduction into your personal style, and should be treated with the same effort and attention as any other space.

Period, or more traditional, properties and houses tend to have plentiful unique and original features. These can often be more elaborate and noticable within the entrances or hallways, as there will be a lot of detail in close proximity. The staircase style, internal doors, door frames, decorative mouldings and trims are all aspects to be highlighted, not hidden, when a new decor scheme is being chosen. All of these features give an amazing opportunity to showcase a dazzling interior decor scheme, as soon as you, or visitors enter the home.

I would suggest making the most of every aspect. Choose your paint colours carefully to give maximum impact, and to help beautiful qualities and characteristics stand out. Use contrasting colours to create differentiation between various surfaces and draw the eye to particular parts of the room, that you want people to notice.

 

Furthermore, wallpaper is also another great way to add a classic nod. Insert this into panelled frames, above a dado or picture rail, or even on the hall and landing ceilings. An eye catching pattern really adds interest to your walls and also gives a cosy and homely feel.
