The entrance hall and corridor are the “clothing” by which an apartment is greeted, so the importance of a carefully thought-out design cannot be underestimated. This is the room that you see when you return home, and you want it to look welcoming and cozy. In addition, the hallway has an equally important practical function: There should be enough space for outerwear, shoes and other accessories.
However, the practical function of the corridor should not contradict the decorative one. There is a huge area for decorating the corridor, which perhaps not everyone takes seriously. We're talking about a wall. Having vertical space where clothes don't hang can completely change the atmosphere in your hallway.
Decorating the corridor with wallpaper
The right wallpaper can work wonders. Whatever design option you like - classic style, bright colors, elegant restraint - nothing limits your possibilities. Huge selection colors, patterns, textures! Whether you prefer stripes or floral motifs (by the way, there are very cute samples on the website http://www.mirpola.kiev.ua/oboi-dlya-korridora), loud colors or pastels, you will always find your ideal wallpaper for the corridor.
Decorating the corridor with wall panels
Wall ones always look impressive, including in the hallway. Here you can choose not only between natural and geometric patterns, but also among a large palette of colors. Do you prefer natural materials? Noble wooden panels will create a warm atmosphere in your hallway.
Decorating the corridor with wood
The wood can be left in its natural form or painted in any color, or combined with wallpaper or painted walls. Classic option: place wooden panels only on the lower half of the wall, and cover the upper half with wallpaper.
Painted corridor walls
Don't have a passion for wallpaper or panels? Good old wall paint always comes to the rescue! It is easy to apply and does not require much time to carry out repairs, especially considering that there is usually very little furniture that will have to be removed. Choose solid color pastel shade or combine calm and bright colors. Minimum costs and amazing results!
Corridor design idea: mirror
A mirror is an integral part of the corridor, otherwise where should you look when you return home unplanned? :) If you are not sure about the style of your hallway, opt for a simple mirror without a frame. It will fit into any style without attracting unnecessary attention. And the mirror panels as in the photo can be arranged in any order. Get your own custom mirror.
If you want to emphasize a particular style, then a properly selected frame will come to your aid. For example, the carved frame in the photo above harmoniously complements the classic style of the hallway.
Interior stickers for the hallway and corridor
Perhaps the easiest way to change something in the environment without resorting to drastic measures is to use interior stickers. Great idea: you can use them with coat hooks. It turns out cheerful and reduces the degree of seriousness :)

Home is the place where you want to feel as comfortable as possible. Eat various ways make it even more cozy. But it’s especially nice when the decorative elements are made by yourself. Decorative panels in the interior always attract admiring glances, and making them from scrap materials is not difficult if you follow the technology correctly and follow the instructions step by step.
What it is
The panel is a decorative element and its purpose is to decorate the interior and fill empty space on the walls or ceiling. Sounds a lot like the description of a painting, doesn't it? How does it differ from a painting, if both decorative options are designed to decorate the room? The answer is simple: a painting is a subject of painting art, and a panel can consist of anything. Dough, plastic, plaster, beads, fabric, wood - there is no limit to imagination when it comes to making panels and the material for decoration can be anything. If you want to make your interior unique, then the panel will do it perfectly!
Determining the scope of work
The first stage in creating a wall panel is to decide on the design of the future product. If you already know where it will be located, then this complicates the task. You need to weigh the color scheme, size, what it will have, whether the material from which it is planned to be made fits into the overall picture of the interior.
So, we decide: size, color scheme and what materials will be used. This is the first step. If this is possible, then it is worth drawing a sketch of the planned product. This will help take into account all the nuances in completing the task.
If a piece of cardboard, canvas or any other hard surface is taken as a basis, then markings are made on it: where and how the decorative elements will be located. If the base is fabric, then it is stretched onto the base (for example, onto a piece of plywood, board or plastic), and the rest of the fabric is secured on the back side. After the craft is completed, it is placed in a frame and hung on the wall.
There is another option for making panels on a fabric basis. You will need to take a solid base, for example, plasterboard sheet the right size and glue foam rubber to it. The fabric is stretched onto the resulting soft base. In this case, you can do without a frame.
After all the preparations, you can begin the main part of production: decorating.
Types of panels with your own hands
Let's look at the main types used in decoration:
| Fabric | These are all variants of embroidery, applique and tapestry techniques that are made on fabric. The technique can be anything: from hand embroidery to machine embroidery, made in mass production. |
| Stone | Often made using mosaic technique. Natural stones that are considered noble are used: basalt, marble and others. Less often, such products also contain artificial stone. |
| Made of ceramics | They are made using ceramic tiles and are usually placed in the bathroom or kitchen. |
| Sculptural | A volumetric version of the product, which is made of special plaster, gypsum or metal. |
| Graphic | Everything done with various types print. These can be reproductions of paintings, photo printing. |
| Other types | Here you can find handmade products made using any available materials. Salt dough, wood, dried flowers and plants, shells, clay, beads - there is no limit to your imagination for decoration. |
Here are examples of manufacturing different types of panels:
From prints of fruits and vegetables
A child can also participate in the creation of this panel, as it is very simple to make. The bright, colorful design of this creation is ideal for the kitchen.
For production you will need:
- Solid vegetables or fruits (this could be apples, any citrus fruits, pears, cabbage, etc.);
- Paint (gouache, oil, acrylic);
- The basis on which the decoration will be made. It can be cardboard, board, fabric stretched over a sheet of drywall.
The surface of the base is pre-degreased and painted in the desired shade. Cut fruits and vegetables into halves and dip them in paint. It is best to pour the dye thinly into a plate. We apply the cut side of the colored fruit to the base and get a stamp.
Stamps can be made anywhere on the base, but images that are positioned symmetrically look best.
From paper
There are many options for making paper creations. Let's look at the main ones:
Made from round paper designs
This product can be made with your own hands in an hour and is an excellent way to decorate the interior, as well as get a lot of positive emotions.
Let's prepare materials:
- Colored paper;
- Paper clips;
- Scotch;
- Pins;
- Stapler.
Procedure:
- A sheet of paper is folded like an accordion, like a fan.
- We bend the accordion in half.
- Using a stapler, we secure the edges at the fold so that the accordion does not fall apart and you get a small fan. We connect three such fans and get a circle.
- Accordions different colors can be combined into one circle, then the panel will turn out even brighter.
- Connect many circles together, attaching them to the wall with safety pins. The size of the circles and the composition itself can be as large as you like and take any shape.
From photographs
Essentially, this is a collage of photographs or artistic pictures, which can either have a specific theme or be completely abstract. Photos are combined into one composition and mounted on a wall or other base. Design option: combine multiple images of sea and sky.
From colored paper
There are a lot of options for making crafts from colored paper. Today we offer the “Flowers from Hearts” option, which is suitable even for a children’s master class. It is very easy to make, is an excellent tool for developing a child’s fine motor skills, and looks amazing!
We will need:
- Office colored paper;
- Basis for panels;
- Pencil;
- Scissors;
- Cardboard;
- Paints;
- Tassels;
- Frame.
Let's get started:
- Cut out a heart-shaped template. To make one flower, we need eight such hearts. All hearts in a flower must be the same size.
- Fold the heart in half and get a petal.
- Glue a flower from these petals onto the base. This could be cardboard or a wall.
- To make flower leaves, you need smaller green hearts.
- We arrange the flowers in any order, depending on general form desired panel. It can be a heart shape, or you can arrange flowers in the shape of a tree. Let's show your imagination and bring it to life!
From newspaper tubes
Newspapers can be great for making your own panels.
Necessary materials:
- Newspapers;
- Knitting needle;
- Glue;
- Wire;
- Brush;
- Knife;
- Acrylic paint.
Procedure:
- We cut the newspaper sheet into two parts with a knife.
- Apply a thin layer of glue to these parts.
- We wind sheets of newspapers diagonally onto a knitting needle. You should get thin tubes.
- Let's take it acrylic paint and paint the newspaper tubes in the desired color.
- We coat the resulting flagella with glue again and wrap the ends of each newspaper tube so that we get a spiral. Both ends need to be twisted in opposite directions if you want to get the shape of a seahorse. You can make a circle: to do this you just need to roll the entire tube in a spiral.
- We secure the spirals with rubber bands and leave them to dry for 24 hours.
- We remove the rubber bands and make up the desired pattern from the resulting elements. The elements can be immediately mounted on the wall, or a panel can be created on a pre-prepared base.
Circles made from newspaper tubes can be painted different colors, combining several shades in one circle. Circles with a gradient look interesting: a transition from one color to another.
From wallpaper
This is an interesting solution that will enliven your interior and give it even more comfort.
There are several ways to make a wallpaper panel yourself:
- Shred technique
Cut out fragments from existing wallpaper. The pieces can be of any shape, but must fit together. Consider general form the entire future composition. For example, you can cut out squares with flowers from three different types wallpaper and combine them together in several rows in a certain sequence. In this case, paired elements do not have to be arranged symmetrically.
- Whole wallpaper technique
We take wallpaper with the desired image (for example, a sakura branch), carefully cut it out and insert it into a frame, or glue it to the wall and decorate it with moldings or panels.
- Combination of styles
Here the design is limited only by your imagination! Combine solid pieces of wallpaper with small cut out pieces. This is a modern and inexpensive way to decorate your home.
Important! If you can’t decide on the style of the future composition, then you should take a closer look at the images of flowers and plants in soft shades. It is always appropriate and looks beautiful.
From salt dough
This type of panel is one of the most budget-friendly, since its production requires a minimum of material and usually everything you need is always at home.
We offer a version of a molded panel where your child’s arms and legs will be imprinted. This creation will allow you to decorate your baby's bedroom in an original way and preserve the memory of his childhood for a long time.
We will need:
- Flour;
- Salt;
- Colored gouache (optional).
Procedure:
- We take flour and salt in proportions of two to one. Two glasses of flour are mixed with a glass of salt, then water is added. The approximate volume of water for this amount of flour and salt will be 125 ml.
- Knead the stiff dough. If it sticks to your hands, then add more flour. The dough should be elastic and not stick to your hands.
- If you want to make the panel colored, then it’s time to add gouache, decorating the dough with it.
- Roll out the dough. Its approximate thickness should be about 2 centimeters. The shape of a piece of dough can be any.
- We bring the dough to the baby and gently press his palm and foot into the mass. The pressure should be light, but sufficient to leave a mark.
- We make two through holes in the dough - this is for the future ribbon, on which the panel will then hang.
- Place everything on a baking sheet and cover with baking paper.
- Preheat the oven to 90 degrees and put the dough there to dry. This will take approximately two to two and a half hours. It is necessary to carefully turn the dough once, halfway through drying.
- We paint the resulting panel with colored or white gouache, thread the tape through the holes - voila! A very touching and cute decoration for your home is ready!
From fabric
Decorating panels with fabric came into fashion not so long ago: only in last years handmade lovers paid close attention to the fabric. This product is ideal for a Provence style interior. Let's look at the main types of fabric panels that you can make with your own hands:
Patchwork
Various techniques are used to make such panels, but they all have one thing in common: the use of scraps of fabric in the work. There are many patterns for such products on the Internet. Panels can be either on a fabric basis or on rigid structures. You will need any fabric for making: from pieces of tulle to scraps of old bed linen.
Felt for creativity
Felt panels are one of the most popular among needlewomen. All you need are pieces of felt of different colors, a pattern for future parts of the picture, thread and a needle or glue and a base on which you plan to attach all the details of the panel. Felt is a very beneficial material for creativity: it will help bring all your fantasies to life. A felt panel will be an excellent decoration for a living room or hallway.
Burlap looks like an extremely inconspicuous material, but it begins to play with completely different colors when craftswomen use it in their work. Burlap can be used to cover a frame for a panel; it can be used as a basis for other materials: beads, lace and others. This rough material perfectly emphasizes the delicacy and sophistication of other fabrics.
A wool panel is the simplest product using the wet felting technique. This is an interesting process in which wool is compacted in a specific way to create felt. The design on such a panel can be anything: it all depends on the skill of the needlewoman.
If you want to take a single-color piece of fabric and draw a certain picture on it, then keep in mind that this is not as simple as it seems. It’s worth practicing on a rough draft, and then moving on to the fabric that you plan to use on the panel.
From beads
In this version of the panel, all or part of its elements are made of beads. First, the elements themselves are made, and then they are fixed to the base and, if desired, framed.
From threads and nails
This is far from new, but very interesting way make a panel with your own hands! Minimalism reigns here in the choice of materials, but this does not make the panel bland and boring, but, on the contrary, attracts admiring glances.
The whole point is that cloves are hammered onto a solid base. This can be done chaotically, or it can be done according to a certain pattern, which can be successfully found on the Internet. Threads are stretched between the nails in several layers. Thanks to this, a certain pattern is created.
From buttons
Ideal for beginners! You can use buttons to decorate a panel made of fabric or paper, or you can create a product made entirely of buttons. For this you will need
- PVA glue;
- Buttons;
- The basis.
Execution order:
- Draw a sketch on the basis: where the buttons will be located and what pattern they should represent together.
- Glue the buttons to the base with PVA glue.
The design can be anything: inscriptions, abstraction, flora and fauna and others.
Mirror panel
A modern panel created from pieces of mirrors. Complex versions can only be made by specialists, while simple ones are very accessible for independent work. The mirror panel will become additional lighting in the room.
Necessary materials:
- Mirror tiles;
- Liquid Nails;
- A base with wooden planks, if you plan to stick the mirrors not directly on the wall.
The principle of operation is clear: we combine various mirror pieces and attach them in the required order to a wall or other base using liquid nails.
Usually made in an abstract style from the most different breeds tree. Very profitable in classic interior wooden panels with inlaid semi-precious stones look great.
Dried flowers and leaves
Great for children's creativity. We decide on the plot of the future work, and then glue dried flowers and leaves (juniper branches, tree leaves - any flora will do) onto a solid base (cardboard, fiberboard) using glue. Grains, seeds and twigs would be an excellent addition.
Cereals and seeds
A sketch of the future painting is applied to a solid, already painted base. Then, cereals and seeds are attached to the base using PVA glue. Large grains should be glued individually, and small grains, for example, rice, should be poured onto the glue already applied to the base.
Wanting to make their home not only stylish, but also cozy, everyone probably thinks about what decorative details should be added to it so that everything looks harmonious. A wall panel is one of these options. This is a picturesque piece of decorative art that will help fill your home with colorful accents using a wide variety of materials. With our review, we will demonstrate various ideas for wall panels, as well as the features of their stylistic design.
Mirror panel on the wall
Modern designers quite often use mirror surfaces. Moreover, sometimes these are the most unexpected decisions. A mirror panel on the wall is made not only from natural mirror, which is quite difficult to process. Now there are a lot of substitutes, for example, mirror wallpaper, film, wall tiles, “pseudo-mirrors” made of polycarbonate. They are in no way inferior in their effectiveness, but they make it possible to design a mirror panel on the wall (see photo below) of the most extraordinary shape.
Wood panel on the wall
For centuries, wood has been a raw material for the manufacture of many household items and decorations. This is a readily available material, yet easy to process and durable. A decorative wood panel on the wall can be made using any part of it. The photos show us original works made from dry branches, the design of a large wall with “nickels” of a trunk sawn across, as well as the presence of practically an entire array as wall decoration. Wood panels on the wall must be processed so that various bugs do not appear, and dampness and temperature changes do not affect the material.
Glass panel on the wall
They will help fill the interior with wonderful highlights and bright accent points. various elements glass decor. If you have a photo frame lying around at home, it will allow you to create a glass panel for the wall. You can apply a design to the outer side of the surface, then open it with varnish, or stick the design on the reverse side, placing it in a frame. It’s very good to decorate the kitchen work surface this way. By the way, this treatment of an apron in glass is called “skinali.” Frequent drawings on them are vegetables, fruits, landscapes, photographs of megacities.
Light panel on the wall
An LED garland will help you create a spectacular light panel on the wall. The main materials of the canvas can be cardboard or canvas. Apply any design you like (special stencils are available for sale). Carefully cut out using a utility knife. Then the canvas is attached to the frame, and a garland is placed on the back, which is also covered with plywood or thick cardboard, bringing the power cord out. A light panel on the wall will serve as an original night light in the evening, and during the day - an equally beautiful art decor.
3d wall panel
A new trend these days is three-dimensional images, which are often present when decorating: 3D wallpaper, tiles, curtains. Their price, of course, is an order of magnitude higher than the materials we are used to. A more budget-friendly option would be to design a 3D wall panel yourself. In the photo below you can see examples of this design: a voluminous clock, floating butterflies and a landscape painting made with plaster. “Soft” 3D panels on the wall and voluminous paper applications look beautiful.
Mosaic panel on the wall
The first mentions of the creation of mosaic paintings have been known since ancient times. Now this art is no less relevant. If you are interested in it, try, first, to create a small mosaic panel on the wall yourself, and then you can begin more complex work, decorating the interior with large luxurious drawings. The work is quite painstaking. The mosaic panel on the wall is laid on a degreased, cleaned surface using a binder primer. It is impossible to make small mosaic elements yourself - they are sold in special sets that contain everything you need. On your part, a painstaking, correct sequence of work is required.
New Year's wall panel made from scrap materials
When decorating the interior of an apartment for the New Year, in addition to a lush Christmas tree, it is worth decorating the empty walls. At the same time, the simplest household items are taken, creating three-dimensional compositions. A New Year's wall panel made from scrap materials is often decorated in blue tones, and to emphasize the “winteriness” of the holiday, artificial snow, cotton wool or foam balls are used.
Children's wall panel made of paper
To prevent your child’s room from looking uncomfortable and deserted, you can decorate a children’s wall panel made of paper. Involve your baby in this work - together you will create the most interesting compositions. Perhaps these will be applications depicting various cute animals and fairy-tale creatures. It is not necessary to use stencils; come up with characters yourself. A branchy paper tree with voluminous flowers and foliage will perfectly complement the room, as the photo shows.
How to make a panel on the wall, following the style of the interior
When an apartment is decorated in strict adherence to a certain style, the decor must certainly correspond to it. To create a stylish wall panel yourself, we suggest you familiarize yourself with the main criteria inherent in a particular direction.
Wall panel in classic style
The classic direction involves a touch of luxury in any element of the interior. At the same time, there is aristocratic restraint. For example, a mirror panel on the wall. Modern technologies allow you to create a variety of effects on mirrors, including artificial “age-old” abrasions, which will give the canvas a particularly valuable look. The frames of paintings and compositions can be well decorated from figured baguettes with relief designs.
Wall panel in Provence style
The originality, grace, and comfort of ancient French country life can be complemented by a wall panel in the Provence style. Dishes will be a good material. Look at the photo where a luxurious composition was created using painted plates. The colors of landscapes, as if faded in the sun, combined with the lightness of the French character, plant motifs, and rough wood elements are appropriate here.
Wooden wall panel in eco style
Decorating a room in an eco-friendly manner involves using natural natural materials. Of course, wood takes first place here. A wooden wall panel in eco style can be “woven” from branches, preserving their original appearance, using varnish compounds or painted to match the color of the interior. One of the options shows a vertical panel on the wall in the form of a branched tree, obtained by sawing solid wood.
Art panel on the wall
The modern art deco direction is sophistication, flexibility of lines, alternation of contrasting colors, geometric shapes, multifaceted lighting. An art panel on the wall can be decorated with glass, mirror surfaces, elegant compositions with additional lighting, as well as abstract paintings.
Options for wall panels in modern directions
Modernity dictates its own rules. Popular trends of minimalism and high-tech offer us to almost completely abandon decoration, but in an apartment, we still want to somehow diversify the empty space. Modern wall panels have a laconic appearance, but, nevertheless, are not devoid of originality. Just look at the high-tech chessboard decorating the office or the extraordinary mirror composition of minimalism.
Panel on the wall of a loft interior
The stylish loft stands out sharply from other trends - it is simply impossible not to recognize it. Brick walls, bare concrete interiors require additional decorative details that will give a “lived-in” look. To decorate a panel on a loft wall, large meter-long canvases (often wooden) with various images are often used: social posters, symbols, works of contemporary artists, black and white photographs. The photo shows a successful design of a wall panel made from a wooden pallet.
It is impossible to imagine a home interior without wall decoration.
Painting or wallpapering seem like boring options for modern designers.
That is why decorating walls by installing various clockwork, game mechanisms, carpets and so on.
Purpose
Paintings are a universal decorative element. They perfectly enliven the room, cover unsightly places and add their own zest to the overall interior.
Panels are a decorated surface, the drawing on which always has a frame.
The largest panel models are full-fledged panels with large-format images or interesting ornaments. The advantage of this kind of composition is that they do not have to be solid.
Thus, modular panel options help to effectively distribute accents not only on one wall, but on all of them at once.
The main task of such a wall painting is to decorate the room. At the same time, the panel may well distract attention from the place of inaccurate wallpaper gluing or unevenness on the wall.
In offices or offices, panels are used to disguise safes.
Varieties
Unlike ordinary paintings, the image on the panel may be far from classical painting.
The subjects of the drawings are not limited in any way, as is the choice of materials from which the decorative element is made. Therefore, designers identify the following types of wall panels:
From textiles. Woven paintings typically have a wooden frame and are made in the style of art reproductions and antique tapestries. Often such panels depict geometric patterns and floral appliqués.
The advantages of textile decoration are a variety of colors, three-dimensional images, and interesting texture.
Inexpensive panels are made in conditions mass production, but you can also find original versions, for which you will need to pay more.
Made of wood. These paintings have a wooden base and look quite expensive, despite the laconicism of the subjects. The price of the product corresponds to its high originality.
From wallpaper. Great option for those who use regular paint for wall decoration, but wants to correctly place accents in the interior. With the help of such decoration you can get rid of the remaining parts of the wallpaper that are not suitable for repair.
The advantage of this option is that it is easy to perform even at home.
Free size (free size). This type of panel has free dimensions and, as a rule, the image has some incompleteness.
Most often, this type includes modular panels that can be constantly expanded by adding new elements.
Mirrored. A panel of several mirrors. An excellent option for ultra-modern and laconic apartment interiors.
Contrary to general ideas, mirror paintings are not distinguished by the severity of their forms, since you can even take those mirror surfaces that seem uneven and chipped.
Placements
Decorating walls with decorative panels is possible in various parts of the apartment or workplace.
The main thing is to select paintings to match the overall atmosphere and not forget about the importance of maintaining the proportions of the room.
To place panels in the hallway, it is better to choose small models in bed colors with calm themes.
You can purchase a modular composition with natural landscapes or a bouquet of flowers.
If you install panels in the corridor, you can focus on more contrasting and brighter shades.
It is advisable to highlight the picture if there is not enough bright lighting in this area of the house.
Often designers suggest placing mirror panels in the corridor to visually increase the space. Panels depicting all seasons and wooden compositions are very popular.
For the kitchen, it is advisable to select a light panel that will stand out against the background of the overall cozy interior.
It is worth paying attention to wallpaper compositions with various patterns in golden, heavenly, pink tones. IN Lately Tile panels depicting reproductions of famous still lifes are in demand.
The main hall, as a place for evening relaxation, should be decorated with calm paintings that induce tranquility.
For this part of the house, it makes sense to purchase large panels depicting marine sketches and floral patterns.
The emphasis in such decorative elements for the living room is not the plot itself, but the material from which the composition is made. Harmonious options: wooden or fabric panel.
In the bedroom, wall decorations are placed opposite the bed. It is better to choose panels with limited dimensions, which depict relaxing landscape or space sketches.
Fans of long-term water procedures will find a bathroom panel suitable.
But here it is important to pay attention to the moisture-resistant qualities of the painting.
There is no point in installing panels made of wood or paper. It is better to choose decoration with elements of stone and marble.
How to make a panel yourself
To decorate your own apartment with a unique wall decoration, you first need to decide on a specific image of the panel.
You also need to choose a location for installation. The simplest composition can be made from a large piece of chipboard and the rest of the wallpaper. You will need a saw, glue and sandpaper.
First of all, you should give the painting the desired shape.
For example, you want to make a modular panel from several elements. Then the outline of each fragment is first drawn on the boards, and then all the plates are cut out. The blanks and chipboard are applied to the wallpaper and outlined. Having cut out the images, you can proceed to processing the panels.
It is necessary to sand the wooden parts to even out the edges. Then round the corners.
Remove the fragments from various irregularities and degrease so that the wallpaper sticks well. Already at this stage, it is advisable to think about how you will install the panels.
The easiest way is to hang a picture on double-sided tape, but if the composition is very heavy, it makes sense to think about brackets.
The production of panels ends with the installation of wallpaper. There is no need for special glue, so buy regular PVA or Moment. However, be prepared for the fact that too thin sheets of wallpaper may become damaged.
A self-made wall panel is an organic economical option home decoration. A unique picture gives positive emotions and transforms the space.
Photo of a decorative panel for the living room
Paintings in the interior of the hallway are a worthy design element, regardless of the chosen style of the room. In order for the painting in the corridor to fit harmoniously into the overall decor, it is important to choose the right plot and color scheme. Compatibility between the style of the hallway and the image is achieved by choosing the appropriate form of execution. Photos and handmade with a cross are radically different in perception, even with identical plots. They deserve special attention. Familiarization with the variety of design solutions will help you competently design your own corridor interior.
Choice of colors and design
There are many nuances to choosing a painting for a corridor or hallway. Let's start with color scheme. The dominant tones and plot of the canvas as a whole should be in harmony with the interior of the room and be visually pleasing. Designers recommend avoiding the use of gloomy and dark colors in the entrance area; pastel shades will help achieve a cozy atmosphere.
A win-win option when the color scheme of the painting and the hallway are on the same plane, but differ slightly in shades. If the ultimate goal is to form in the interior psychological comfort, priority is given to calm tones. Dynamic people and creative people prefer contrasting combinations.
Comment! When choosing a painting for the interior of a corridor, be sure to take into account the presence or absence of a pattern on the surface of the walls.
Wallpaper with a large pattern and a bright design are unlikely to find harmony with each other. The canvas looks much more impressive against the background of plain walls. A bright image will successfully cope with the function of an accent element of the interior.
The design of the hallway also influences the choice of design. There are several main solutions:
- Traditional oil painting is suitable for Art Nouveau, Shabi Chic and all areas of classicism.
- Modern modular paintings are universal, it all depends on the subject. Scandinavian, eco-style, Mediterranean and Japanese, art deco - there is a suitable option for any hallway interior.
- Photo images are relevant for high-tech, minimalism and other solutions for laconic hallway design.
Less often, handmade work in the form of beadwork or cross stitch finds a place in the corridor. If you want to demonstrate your own skills, you can hang a unique collage made from scrap materials. Hand-made art is organic in the interior, where national or rustic notes dominate: country, Provence, Chalet.
Another point worthy of attention is the presence or absence of framing. Frameless panels quickly gained popularity and are not losing ground.
Various paintings in the interior of the hallway in the photo below:
Priority Stories
The plot of the canvas is no less important than color palette and form of execution. Elaborate portraits, demonstrations of devastation and other apocalyptic themes are best explored in an art gallery. It is recommended to choose peace-loving themes for your own corridor. City or country landscapes, images of animals, macro photography of wildlife are the most suitable solutions for the hallway. Photos of family members captured in happy moments of life are also appropriate. The laconic modern interior of the corridor will be complemented by an intricate abstraction or canvas by an avant-garde artist.
The plot of the picture should not only be a semantic addition to the interior of the hallway, but also appeal to all the inhabitants of the apartment. Sometimes a harmless and neutral picture causes inexplicable irritation. Listen to your own perceptions and avoid internal disharmony.

Designer tips for decorating the hallway interior with paintings
In order for the interior of the corridor to benefit from the presence of paintings in it, it is worth listening to the recommendations of the designers:
The interior of the hallway is devoid of natural sunlight, so there is no point in being afraid of paint fading due to exposure to direct sunlight. Successful decoration of the corridor with paintings is demonstrated by the following photos:
Modern photos or timeless classics
Becoming the owner of an original oil painting is not always affordable in terms of financial costs. And the functions of the corridor are not entirely suitable for contemplating artistic masterpieces.
