Small and narrow spaces are the trickiest for decorating but that doesn’t mean we can’t make them stylish and functional. Small and narrow entryways seem to be the most difficult ones to style as they should meet a lot of requirements: make a cool impression, provide storage space and look nice. Today’s roundup is about narrow entryways and ways to decorate them to achieve maximum.
Styles And Colors
Decorating a narrow space is close to decorating just a small one, and there’s a list of points that help to deal with it. First of all, rock neutrals and avoid dark colors as they will make your entryway smaller. Get a bright accent wall or make the entrance door bold to break the monotony of the long corridor. Stick to laconic and minimal styles to avoid cluttering the already small space.

Furniture
The furniture you are going to add should be as functional and sleek as possible. Prefer sleek consoles and benches, or get small poufs and stools. If it’s a bench, choose a storage one, and if you are using a console, make it floating to save some floor space. A sleek shoe cabinet like Trones by IKEA will be also a very nice solution, and its countertop can be used for storing small stuff like keys. Wall-mounted shelves and ledges are a perfect way to store and decorate, and you can make some shelves around the entrance or over it. A wall-mounted rack is always better than a floor one, and an umbrella stand isn’t that obligatory if you are tight on space. Got a radiator? Place a shelf on it.
