Invest in your entrance

Make first impressions count with your hallway. The hallway decor is often left to last but should always be considered as it sets the tone for the rest of the house. Often smaller spaces with less sunlight than other areas, hallways are the perfect place to use colour and details.

By adding panelling you can add character and personality to your walls and with clever paint details you can draw the eye through the hallway and towards the places you want people to go.

It helps protect walls from scuffs in high-traffic areas, and the visual divide allows for creative decoration, such as using contrasting colors or textures above and below the rail.
