Features of the color scheme
Proper color design can solve many problems: visually expand the space, hide some defects, visually increase the height of the room. Considering that hallways are often small and dark, it is better to choose light and warm colors for them. Otherwise, there is a risk of getting the effect of non-residential premises.

It’s better not to get carried away with dark tones; they visually make the room smaller. There shouldn’t be a lot of saturated and bright colors. They are best used as accents. It is better to select the color of furniture based on the walls and floor. Its tone should be combined with the shade of the flooring or walls or be contrasting.

Types of decorative wall decoration
Natural and artificial stone - often used in decorating the corner of a room or wall, fireplace or some other interior detail. This option will allow you to visually expand the room; you can use both expensive and inexpensive stone to lay it.
Laying stone is similar to laying ceramic tiles. By the way, the design of ceramic tiles will fit perfectly into a bathroom or a small corridor; a professional specialist can lay the tiles, but if you have the necessary knowledge, you can install it yourself. Decorating the walls of the hallway in this style, as in the design, will not be the best option, but we will still leave this for other more suitable rooms.
Decorative stone is the most popular finishing material for hallways. There is no need to buy it - sea pebbles brought from your vacation will be useful for decoration.
Metal finishing - modern technologies will allow you to apply metal material to any surface, do not be afraid to decorate plastic, wood, concrete, a suitable shade or any other type of metal. Connect the coating firmly to the base, polish it, subject it to tinting and other operations. In general, experiment and create the perfect design.
Wallpaper - this type of decoration is by far the most common. Today, in addition to the standard paper, vinyl and non-woven materials, new ones have appeared - glass wallpaper. This type is used in difficult-to-glue surfaces with your own hands; in addition, they hide cracks and joints of walls.
Wallpaper made of paper material must be glued with your own hands on the wall, which up to this point has been subjected to the “putty” procedure with glue several times.
Design and decoration of walls from natural materials - these include: leather, wood of natural colors, sisal and wall cork. Most often used in the interiors of luxury homes. It is worth mentioning that each of these materials has its own advantages and disadvantages. For example, wood will hide all unnecessary and unnecessary details, but will not hide the unevenness of the walls, and in order to place the skin on the surface of the wall, you will first need to carefully level it.
The choice of certain materials depends on the style and decoration of the walls, budget and personal preferences. In one case or another, it is important not to forget that this or that material requires special care and work with its installation, which must be carried out by competent specialists.
