Adding a mirror in the hallway will give you the illusion of having a bigger space and it's perfect near the entrance because everyone needs to have one last look at themselves in the mirror before heading out.

@Lil S i was thinking either art or a mirror, i think something like this would work. thanks :)

I posted awhile back about the alcove at the end of my hallway, and with the help of the nice people on here, that is looking great. Side note- I do still need to replace the ceiling light. The problem is I now have the rest of the hallway. Do I move the picture to the center (ooops!) and leave it as is? Or do I center the picture and get a skinny black table for under the picture? Or...??? I'm open to suggestions! Thank you!!!

My impression is this hallway is very long & wide - will you please list length x width of each section? My initial thought is that each section of hallway should be treated as separate ’rooms’. First room - entry foyer - looks like another hallway off of it. Without knowing dimensions of any of the spaces here’s my thoughts. Move bench to foyer / entry hall - maybe under item on wall. Is there a ceiling light? If yes, change to a hanging light similar to the one in 3rd section from entry. Add an area rug with lots of color & as large as will fit space. Center section - change console to a much longer cabinet style & hang a large piece of art. Don’t know what’s down that hallway but it’d be great to see the art from there. The last hallway with the mirrored wall - I think two chairs, a table between & another piece of large art on the wall. Add an area rug in this space too - maybe same as what’s at entry. I like @housegal200 idea of moving the sofas to create an open walkway & connection to that seating space.
