Please help- Long narrow hall & feature wall design.
Comments (5)I would take out two of the middle framed art near the center of the hall and add a large mirror. At the very end I would do some sort of single panel wall paper mural. And then, depending on the style of the rest of your home an interesting stand on which will sit a single vibrant colored vase with something tall and sparse. Or, a floor to ceiling mirror while keeping the continuous wall of art....See MoreNeed help with paint colors for entry and hall!
Comments (2)Pictures & dimensions would help, sounds like you already have three different colors going on so far so maybe just the same as the living & dining rooms? Is the entry open to the hall? If not, there are some interesting wall coverings now that look great in entry’s........See MoreHallway rug advice please for long hall/entryway
Comments (7)and nothing in the hallway? I do feel I need the foot trafficked areas to have rugs to protect my floors. I like the idea of a wider rug in the entry area, but I still want a runner in the hall. I guess I’m just lost on how to approach mixing and matching rugs in a contiguous area....See MoreNeed help with long entry hall
Comments (17)Looks like you have a lot of space to work with and could implement several differents ideas. Love the ones others have mentioned above. A mirror would help bounce the light around hall so it doesn't feel too dark. I would recommend a long horizontal one if possible. If you have access to an Ikea they have great options for shoe cabinets. Add a few hooks and you've got yourself a mudroom of sorts. I also agree that a narrow console table would make a nice drop spot and the sconces would help to brighten the space. A bench would make a nice addition too. It may be helpful to think of each section as a "zone". Determine how you would like each space to function, based on how you live, and then decorate accordingly. For example: Zone A: a shoe cabinet and mirror. Zone B: a bench and some wall hooks, or a coat tree. Zone C: sconces, a large framed piece or gallery wall, and a narrow console table. Our personal favorite is the hemnes one pictures below but they have lots of options to suit different styles....See MoreDaesha Backey
