DECORATIVE HALLWAYS

COLOUR, PATTERN, FURNITURE, LIGHTING AND ART... THE FOLLOWING SENSATIONAL SPACES USE ALL OF THESE TOOLS TO CREATE PERSONALITY AND DEPTH
DECORATIVE HALLWAYS
ORIGINAL STYLE

‘One-off unique pieces create interest in awkward or small spaces,’ notes interior designer Natalia Miyar, who designed this scheme. ‘I have a few favourite locations for sourcing objects but I also design bespoke pieces that make a statement using interesting colors and textures. A strong piece of art is also a great way to draw focus to a space – often you need little else to bring life to the walls and it can create a talking point in a spot like a hallway where you pause to greet someone.’ If the space is large enough, do make sure to include a surface for the practicalities of everyday life, such as a pretty catch-all for your car keys or a decorative coaster if you always have a coffee cup in your hand.
