We strive to create a home that is special to each client by thinking through all of the design details, including those in the forgotten spaces such as hallways and landings.
These type of pass-through rooms can sometimes take a backseat to the main living areas, but they are the perfect spot to add a personal touch.
Here are a few design tips to turn your hallways and landing into warm and inviting spaces.
1. Create a focal point
In this new home we designed, we transformed what could have been a cold, boring upstairs’ landing into a beautiful extension of the main living areas.
We also added a unique focal point to catch your eye before you walk down the stairs.

2. Soften the space through rugs, fabrics, and furnishings
A great way to pull together a hallway is through layering the space. Here’s a great example from 2018 our Atlanta Homes & Lifestyles’ Southeastern Showhouse space.

3. Add a personal touch though art or family photos
My clients will tell you that I love using a hallway to create a personal photo gallery. I asked this client for some black and white photos that were special to their family, and we took it from there….

So the next time you are walking through one of your hallways and it seems a little bare, incorporate these design tips. Be sure to let me know how it transforms.
As always, if we can help you turn your house into a home you love, give us a call at 205-938-4848 or email us here.
Have a great day,
Dana
