Pep Up<br />

Your Hallway<br />

Give your entrance a stylish update with new furniture or accessories.<br />

SAY HELLO TO HALLWAY STYLE<br />

• Choose a runner that leads guests from the front<br />

door to the heart of your home. Consider how its<br />

colours and patterns interact with adjacent rooms<br />

– and avoid light colours that show the dirt.<br />

• Shoe and coat racks, console tables, benches<br />

and the like can be selected with an eye for style<br />

as much as storage. An upcycled or vintage piece<br />

could really make a statement.<br />

• A hallway mirror is not only an essential but can<br />

really up the fashion stakes. All sorts of designs are<br />

available, and a rattan frame is very on trend.<br />

• Include a row of hooks for more impact, whether<br />

rustic or traditional, industrial or modern. They<br />

come in a multitude of shapes, sizes and colours.<br />

• Add an accessory or two, such as a work of art, a<br />

table lamp or a pot of succulents to complement<br />

and enhance your hall’s colours and textures.<br />

Ensure that the combination of pieces makes<br />

you feel happy when you come home.<br />

A clean-lined shape and subtle<br />

colour makes this a useful piece<br />

for any style of hallway.<br />
