Home Decorating Paint Hallways

hallway colour suggestions?

4 years ago

Hello

We have a dark hallway that needs lightening but would also like some warmth from it too. It’s currently white and I’m not a fan. We will be adding spotlights and glazed doors to add more light, but it needs repainting. Any suggestions other than white? We will be getting wooden and glazed staircase in the hall as well.

Thanks

removing the door to kitchen would be easiest & cheapest way to open up & brighten the hall area. Next best, but more costly would be replacing door with one with glass panels. Look for used one in 2nd hand or @ your local Habitat for Humanity store. Keep the one you take off just in case other one gets damaged and needs to be replaced. Replacing only two panels would not achieve much I don't think. A mirror should only be placed where it can reflect something of interest & expand the room. If I recall, the staircase is what would be reflected? A photo collage frame? I think more colour is called for here. Your home, your choice. Bottom line is you decide what is right for your space. As you have likely noticed everyone has a different opinion, professional or not. Most important in re-styling a space is what the home owner wants to use the space for & to be their taste.

I love dark walls and I think your hall with the shiny floors and the right finish on the wall make it special. You already have the wrought iron, which definitely dictates a certain look. I hesitate to recommend a specific color from my monitor, but look at the BM colors in the 1037’s through the 1078’s and see if there is something there which looks good with the tile.

I love colors and most of your plan sounds fun and great but...that paint color looks very purplish and i would say maybe go lighter, more grey tone. Be cautious.

To me, painting is the last decision to make. Do your spotlights and wooden/glazed staircase as you say you have planned and then when that is done you then paint according to how it looks then. At least thats what I'd do
