A bold, modern hallway on a budget – no drill needed!
While you may dream of making big changes to your hallway, if your home is a rental, your options might be limited. So how do you put your stamp on a place, and make it fun and homely, without drilling into the walls or spending lots of money? Here’s our take on an easy Scandinavian hallway that comes with extra pzazz.
Get time on your side
Channelling the spirit of an old Swedish Mora clock, this eye-catching timepiece has a hidden secret. A handy cupboard that makes for perfect key storage, meaning no more time-wasting key hunts every time you’re ready to leave the house. The deep blue colour sets a strong Scandi style statement that always stands out, wherever the clock finds its home.
Calm the shoe chaos
With nowhere to go, piled-up shoes can cause havoc in a small hallway, so give them a home in this MACKAPÄR freestanding shoe cabinet. As well as being a hot spot for your footwear, it has a side hustle as a handy shelf. Complete the hallway with a small lamp and a mirror to add light and depth – and to be there for last looks as you head out.
A grab-and-go trolley
Glide a trolley into your hallway to create room for all those smaller things you need to gather as you leave the house. Compact storage boxes divide up the space so things like umbrellas, sunglasses and gloves don’t have to get mixed up. Build on the classic blue and white colour palette with different tones of blue to keep the uplifting mood.
A small hallway that makes a big entrance
A touch of paint and some easy pieces in coordinating colours transform this small space into a playful, welcoming Scandinavian hallway. The bold blue is coupled with flashes of white furniture to create a fresh and uplifting look that’s guaranteed to raise a smile every time you and your visitors enter or leave. Even better? When it’s time to move on, simply take your hallway with you!
