Owners of modest apartments rarely get the chance to change their apartments to more luxurious and spacious premises. But it is worth showing a bit of cunning to get rid of the feeling of a tight hole forever. The right furniture in a small hallway is able to visually push the walls apart, while fully fulfilling its direct functions. In fact, no one will put up a beautiful bedside table just for the sake of the bedside table. In any case, it is supposed to store a variety of things.
Therefore, when compiling a list of pieces of furniture, think in advance for what purposes this or that element is needed. So you eliminate absolutely unnecessary extra furniture. In a small hallway, be sure to take a closet, cabinet for shoes, a hanger and a mirror. This list can be varied, supplemented (for example, a chest of drawers).
The main principle when choosing models is their compactness. Too bulky designs will eat up such precious centimeters. Thereforewe will abandon a full-fledged wardrobe in favor of a narrow wardrobe with sliding doors. One of them can be made a mirror. So you will have a chic mirror in which you will see yourself in full growth. Plus, the reflective surface will visually expand the boundaries of the room.
Be creative thinking by choosing furniture in the hallway. A small room should not be forced with lockers and bedside tables. A low cabinet-shelf for storing shoes, at the same time performing the function of a bench - that's enough. But for hats, bags and gloves, a weightless hanging rack will do. Do not refuse a simple hanger. If you are not attracted by the sight of hanging clothes for everyone to see, then use special swivel cabinets.
Take a closer look at the corner structures. Sometimes some nook turns out to be empty, into which a tall chest of drawers will fit perfectly. Or put a floor hanger in the corner. She will not take up much space, and the clothes thrown over her will not be conspicuous.
But from the mezzanine, located above the entrance to the room, designers are advised to refuse. Such furniture puts too much pressure on the head.
It is not recommended to put models of dark shades in a small hallway, because they narrow the space. But light colors give a feeling of spaciousness.
Also, do not get carried away with the abundance of decorative elements. However, interesting, semi-antique bronze handles on a whitewashed corner chest of drawersare quite capable of bringing zest to the interior. True, you will be required to fully maintain the style of the room in the chosen key.
As for the quality requirements that furniture in a small hallway must meet, everything is standard here. Reliability, durability and safety are the main characteristics. However, in this room, wet cleaning is more often carried out, so the material must also be moisture resistant. Street dirt and reagents brought along with shoes should be easily removed from the surface without damaging it.
If you did everything right, it will seem to you that you have not such a small hallway. Furniture (photos of the most successful interior finds confirm this) is able to give you such a desired freedom. You will no longer stumble over numerous corners, beat your elbows and knees against cabinets, bedside tables, shelves. At the same time, all your belongings will be neatly laid out and hung.
