How to properly design a narrow corridor in a house

To visually expand a narrow corridor, it is best to choose large floor-to-ceiling mirrors. This will make your space seem wider.

The mirrors will reflect all the interior items of the hallway and the sun's rays, thereby making the room “airier.”

It is also important to use small photographs or paintings.

In a narrow corridor, it is necessary to use a glossy light floor and a reflective ceiling surface.

To increase the area of the corridor, it is also advisable to choose the floor and ceiling in a single color scheme.

A suspended two-level ceiling, as a rule, also visually aligns and expands the narrow space of the corridor.

Finish the far walls with colors darker or brighter than the nearby ones.

In a narrow, elongated corridor, it is necessary to place furniture along one wall.

This will help not make it difficult to walk through the space. It is better if it is a single set that will help support the overall style concept.

On the opposite free wall of the corridor it is better to place a large flat mirror without shelves and in a beautiful frame.
