Design of a Small Corridor. Minimalism Only

Corridor as a Corridor

In a corridor only partially connected to the entrance hall, furniture is rarely placed. In the worst case, a narrow tall console table is installed. However, such a piece of furniture is more of a decorative element than an essential one.

A console table placed in a corridor can serve as a storage unit for newspapers and magazines, household items, and decorative elements such as candles, vases, photo frames, and mirrors.

If there is no space for a console table in your small corridor, focus on the wall and floor design. The ceiling in a small room should ideally be white or covered with a mirror surface.

When it comes to wall design, start by choosing finishing materials: pastel tones and light, not overly bright colors — the best option. After preparing the base, you can proceed to decorate the surface with photographs, posters, wallpaper with optical patterns that expand the space and more.

Corridor + Entrance Hall

In this case, the arrangement of a small corridor is complicated by the need to furnish it with essential interior items: a footstool, a shoe storage console, and a clothing hanger for outerwear and accessories.

If installing a compact built-in wardrobe that would easily accommodate all the above items is not possible, prefer suspended systems over floor-standing ones.

Space can be preserved by mounting several hooks on the wall instead of a floor-standing hanger, and storing home slippers and shoes in boxes built into the console or footstool.
