  • Prepared for Anything

    Prepared for Anything

    Hallways are convenient places to neatly and creatively store some of those household items the whole family might need on a rainy day such as umbrellas seen here in a tall wicker hamper.

  • Make it Cozy

    Make it Cozy

    An ornate mirror flanked by framed art transitions this hallway into a cozy passage.

  • Don't Neglect the Nooks

    Don't Neglect the Nooks

    With bold character and bonus storage space underneath, a once-underused space is now a warm and inviting niche at the opt of the stairs. For a dramatic touch, the window seat is framed by chic black panels that graceful puddle at the floor. And we love the way a simple plum pillow boasting a cool graphic and a handsome black-with-white piping seat topper give the hideaway some extra polish.

  • Hone in on a Centerpiece

    Hone in on a Centerpiece

    Harness the focus of tall, airy hallways with an anchor piece that decorates and inspires the tone of the house.

  • Pile on Pattern

    Pile on Pattern

    A mix of floral, trellis and stripe patterns on furnishings, fabrics and walls says "fun", as seen in this hallway. Look closer—even the solid colors have subtle washes and stripes for added visual texture. The energetic wallpaper helps unify and connect spaces with common color and pattern, bringing the space to life.

  • Don’t Overdo It

    Don’t Overdo It

    An earthy-toned chair rail draws the eye up to the low-hung tapestries perfectly sized for this traditional hallway.

  • Cool Runnings

    Cool Runnings

    In the right hue, a well-chosen runner highlights the staircase and makes it the focal point of any grand entry.

  • Define with Draperies

    Define with Draperies

    Use layers of draperies to help mask imperfections, define spaces and soften surfaces, like in this hallway nook. If you lack a guest room, reclaim a closet and create a petite retreat that can bunk overnight visitors. Simply measure the floor space, construct floor mattresses to fit and pretty it up with pillows and wall decals.

  • Diamonds are Design's Best Friend

    Diamonds are Design's Best Friend

    A glass-paned door looks out onto a garden and is accentuated by dramatic black and white diamond-patterned tiling and large baseboards in the hallway.

  • From Top to Bottom

    From Top to Bottom

    It's all about vertical storage in this miniature hallway just big enough for a coat hanger and a few accessories.

  • Hanging Around

    Hanging Around

    Give everyday necessities a place to hang in your hallway by making many uses out of traditional wall-mounted hangers.

  • A Work of Art

    A Work of Art

    Amplify the scale of a wide hallway by keeping furniture slim and drawing the eye toward the entrance with intricately crafted glass panes.

  • Make it an Anchor

    Make it an Anchor

    Similar pieces of furniture keep symmetry in this long hallway so as not to distract from the rooms branching off.

  • Twinkle Twinkle

    Twinkle Twinkle

    Recessed lighting in the walls and ceiling beget an atmosphere of walking among the stars in this modern hallway.

  • Set the Scene

    Set the Scene

    Wall sconces set the scene for this stately hallway marked by pillars, dark woods and traditional patterns.

  • Problem Solved

    Problem Solved

    Character and storage are the effect when built-in shelving units replace a blank wall in open hallways that can provide decorating dilemmas.

  • Spotting Style

    Spotting Style

    Pops of quirk such as bamboo blinds, track lighting and a bright green door help this funky hallway stand out.
