Preparing your home for a renovation or a make-over involves a lot of forward thinking as you consider each room in the interior, including the living room, kitchen and garden. The hallways, however, often escapes our inspiration and creativity.

Yet a hallway is often one of the first spaces that people see when they visit your home, setting the impression for the rest of the design. It also connects the spaces of our home, so it should be beautiful and appealing.

Today, at homify, we bring you five examples from top professionals from around the world, which show you how old, tasteless and uninspiring hallways have been converted into stylish and cozy little nooks!

Before: The very unattractive entrance

A young couple who lived in this old apartment realized that their hallway was in desperate need of a renovation. As you can see, it was in a very poor condition.

All that was needed was a little bit of imagination!

After: Monochrome beauty

The designers have exceeded expectations with this truly amazing project. 

An exquisite combination of black and white brings an eternally classic look and feel to the interior. The compact furniture and elegant patterns on the floor along with the cute shelves and mirror all contribute to a very cozy and chic space.

Before: Anguish and chaos

In this very old bungalow, the hallway did not look very promising, yet designers from the ARA studio rose to the challenge.

As we can see, the hallway is very narrow and is made more congested by the amount of objects that have been added to this space including clocks, artwork and other items that protrude from the wall.

The contrast of colors and textures enhances the feeling of tightness so that even the mirrored doors do not save the situation. 

After: Light and spacious

The most effective way to visually expand a space is to go for bright colors. As we can see in this image, this method has worked perfectly.

A lot more white has been introduced to the space, while less detail means less clutter around the area. The designers have also incorporated some smart storage solutions along this space, allowing for items to be stored neatly out of sight to achieve that minimalist look and feel.

Before: Horrible angles

Even in large homes, hallways can be quite tiny. In this two-level apartment, we can see how a team of professional decorators were needed to intervene in this space. The entrance hall is small, intimate and washed out with its grey tones, making for a very uncomfortable space.

After: Modern

At the request of the residents, the grey colors in the hallway have been preserved, but everything else has been completely transformed. 

The designers have utilized every square inch available to them, creating a much more comfortable and spacious hallway. You can move around much more easily in this area now.

Before: A blatant lack of taste

In this small apartment in St. Petersburg, it took a team of designers to transform the hallway.

As we can see in the image, it is a shining example of kitsch with its pink wallpaper, painted floors, old-fashioned moldings, wrought-iron chandelier, gilt framed mirror and ornate door handles. 

What could be worse than than the atmosphere of an old, cheap dollhouse?

After: Charming

The designers have completely visually updated the hallway. During their work, they took into account the love that the owners have for a strawberry color scheme as well as antique furniture. Thus they have embodied this style, but have added thin and graceful lines as well as subtle colors to create an elegant and sweet environment.

Before: In ruins

As we end off this ideabook, we decided to show you the most shocking and spectacular transformation.

In this Moscow apartment, which was built in the early 1930's, we can see that the hallway and the home itself is in a total state of disrepair. Renovating this space was quite a challenge because as we can see, it is ruins.

After: Elegant and classic

The hallway in this apartment has been transformed beyond recognition. 

The pale cream-colored walls make the room very cozy while the unobtrusive soft lights in the ceiling makes this space look welcoming and warm, without hurting the eyes.

The abundance of wood improves the room and adds solidarity to it.
