Arrange a hallway room
Arranging a room that looks like a hallway can quickly become a real challenge.
Whether it's a kitchen, a bathroom or a living room, a narrow or long room sometimes makes you want to push out the walls. The rules to follow to maintain an impression of space.
A LIGHT AND BRIGHT CORRIDOR
In order to give a feeling of lightness, we choose low furniture that gives the impression of enlarging the space. We select a light color and smooth materials that reflect light. We therefore forget the old bulky and dark furniture, inherited from our grandmother.
Glass and mirrors are also great ideas to consider to gain lightness and light.
If you need height, choose low furniture, and if it's the opposite, install suspended furniture (niches, boxes, shelves to fix to the wall).
On the textile side, you will have understood that light materials will have their place (linen, cotton, etc.) we forget velvet for example.
THE DINING ROOM
When you have a small space to use, it is a great idea to install a large table. Indeed, these days, we spend less time in the dining room. Dinners with friends often turn into aperitif dinners on the sofa or in the kitchen.
Here, to reduce the corridor effect, wallpaper has been installed in the background, the illusion of seeing the background closer, resizes the room.
But be careful not to weigh down your decor, a rested eye perceives a larger space. We opt for furniture on feet, which lightens the decor.
If your dining room is narrow, installing a bench on one side of the table can save space.
A SEPARATE KITCHEN
Some people choose to open up spaces and others to partition them. This is certainly the case in this beautiful Parisian apartment. By creating a new partition, the owners have created a kitchen adjoining the living room but closed.
The trick here to have storage without taking up too much space is to create a matching narrow piece of furniture that faces the kitchen. This way, you keep a real space to move around.
A BABY'S ROOM
The family grows but not necessarily your house, so often we create new rooms to accommodate a new baby.
His room may not be the size you wanted, but rest assured, a child doesn't need much. And I'm sure this picture will quickly change your mind.
By installing dressers at the back of the room, as here, we create an optical effect that reduces the impression of a corridor. The decorators chose to leave the walls white to enlarge the room. In return, the ceiling was covered with wallpaper with a linear pattern, which was deliberately installed lengthwise.
