boring hall, no budget apart from paint
Comments (11)There are several ways to visually widen a narrow hall and shorten a long hall. Floor: To widen a narrow hall use a diagonal floor treatment, e.g. stencil large diamond pattern on floor. To shorten the hall, use two or three runners to break up the length of floor rather than one long runner. Walls: Long walls can appear shorter by breaking up the horizontal lines.. This can be done by arranging pictures in groups rather than distributing them along the length of the wall. Hang a large painting, print or tapestry on the end wall or paint your door an accent color to create a feature. Another way to shorten a wall is create vertical sections on the wall. Trim can be used to create panels, groupings of art can create sections or large objects such as a mirror can define the segments. Directed lighting illuminating these section will also de-emphasize the length of walls. Ceiling: Minimize the visual impact of a long hall by bringing attention to the ceiling. One approach is to align the panel wall sections with ceiling panels or coffers. Or hang interesting pendant lights or a bold chandelier to redirect visual interest away from the walls....See MoreHelp with colour for hall, stairs landing

Comments (3)It's impossible to tell from a photograph. I think it's fine. I do recommend 3 things - View the paint outside, or at least in natural light - View the color next to other taupe paint sample squares... to make sure there's no pink or green cast. - Make sure it is fine with adjacent rooms - for "flow". I hope this is helpful?...See MoreJudyG Designs
