What to pay attention to

Any apartment, like a theater, starts with a hanger. Or rather, from the hallway. This is the room that greets us. And this space gives us the first idea of the house. This means that the furniture in the corridor should be appropriate to the interior of the entire apartment, set the tone.

But that’s not all. It is in the corridor that the main storage place is often organized. Unlike the bedroom, where only clothes, linen and home textiles are usually stored, the wardrobe in the corridor functions as a mini-pantry. There they place clothes, shoes, hats, bags, suitcases, as well as vacuum cleaners and ironing boards, tools, sports equipment, up to bicycles, various household supplies. A well-designed, roomy storage system is a necessity here.

And we must not forget that the corridor is the place where we go from the street. There is always more moisture and dirt. And this is a walk-through space, through which we bring into the house, including dimensional objects. So the cabinet, like other furniture, must be resistant to water, to mechanical damage, made of durable, easily washable materials.

You can also provide a place for household items, for example, tools, a vacuum cleaner, an ironing board. Sometimes even washing machines and dryers are placed in the closet in the hallway. It will be convenient to lay the dimensions of the compartments in accordance with your appliances or household accessories. 

If you like sports, do not forget to leave a place for your sports equipment: balls, rackets, snowboard, skis or even, if the room allows, a bicycle. Examples of filling cabinets in the hallway in the photo below.
