After your front door, your hallway is the first part of your home that you see when you get home, it is the first interior you present to your guests. Too often, halls are relegated to becoming thoroughfares, where coats and shoes are dumped and not enough thought is put into their decoration. The right paint colour or wallpaper can brighten and lift the darkest or smallest of spaces. Include elegant storage to cut down on clutter, enliven your floor with a vibrant rug or runner or use the walls to display an art collection. If your hallway receives a daily bashing from your kids, why not consider hardwearing tiles or wall panels? We've found the most enthralling halls and corridors from our archive for __design ideas to inspire you…
