Can you help me with this hallway to make hallway wider
Comments (7)Removing the console, changing the flooring and creating more interest on the walls, as mentioned above, would help. Also, creating a focal point at the end of the hall, perhaps by turning the bookcase around, or placing the lower cabinet there if it fits, with a painting above and a (faux) plant on top, using patterned wallpaper above the dado rail, perhaps panelling on the bottom part, and a row of mirrors on the long wall or a large mirror are all tricks to make it visually less narrow. https://www.houzz.co.uk/photos/traditional-hallway-and-landing-traditional-hallway-and-landing-london-phvw-vp~12578864 https://www.houzz.co.uk/photos/townhouse-central-london-traditional-entrance-london-phvw-vp~67103968 https://www.houzz.co.uk/photos/malvern-east-transitional-hallway-and-landing-melbourne-phvw-vp~28664422 https://www.houzz.co.uk/photos/monee-ponds-victorian-federation-transitional-hallway-and-landing-melbourne-phvw-vp~49082224 https://www.houzz.co.uk/photos/entrance-transitional-entrance-chicago-phvw-vp~58742561...See MoreHelp: ideas for painting hallway and stairs/landing
Comments (3)I agree the grey-green colour is lovely, and it's quite restful so I don't think it would be too much if you wanted to do the whole lot in that colour. Also it would go very nicely with the parquet. However if you want to break it up, you could consider installing a dado rail and have colour under the dado and white/neutral above, or vice versa. You could even install panelling up to dado height. I don't know whether panelling or dado rails are strictly authentic for 1930s, you would have to check that, but I think it would look ok even if not authentic, as long as the style is simple. One more thought, are you going to carpet the stairs? (They look lovely bare but will be very noisy I imagine). If so I would advise choosing carpet first and then paint to go with the carpet - much easier than trying to match carpet to paint!...See Morewe need furniture in our hall with these colours. any ideas?
Comments (6)Hi Steve, What a lovely hallway you have! It looks like your home has got somewhat modern rustic feel with the beams and panelling so I would continue to use that style for the furniture. Here's a couple of options which could work: https://www.neptune.com/furniture/living/console-tables/suffolk/suffolk-console-table/ Or this one: https://www.neptune.com/furniture/living/console-tables/arundel/arundel-console-table/ In terms of colours, do you want a paint fo the walls and panelling or just the walls? If its the latter I would go with a soft light grey to contrast the existing colour on the panel. Something like Cornforth White or Elephants Breath - Farrow & Ball. Hope that helps? Let me know what you think? Thanks Rukmini Patel Interior Design...See MoreIdeas for a narrow hallway in Victorian terrace
Comments (5)Your hall will never be very light but but dark areas always feel so much brighter if you can see natural light. It's the light at the end of the tunnel effect. I would remove the wall between the two reception rooms and the two doors. This will give you a site line through to your dining room window and preserve some separation for your front room. I think you will struggle for a downstairs loo as I expect drainage is all at the back of the terrace. You will probably prefer to keep views of your garden. Side return extensions if done well are very expensive per square foot and can darken the existing middle room. Only make commercial sense if property prices are very high....See More
