Small-sized housing can also be stylish and comfortable, the main thing is to choose the right design for it and plan the space. A Scandinavian-style hallway is suitable for small apartments, adding a sense of spaciousness to them, helping to organize storage of things and adding modern order to the entire apartment. The interior design of a small corridor in the spirit of Swedish minimalism goes well with the space of a studio or one-room apartment, a cottage, a townhouse. There is nothing superfluous here, light colors are used in the decoration, and familiar cabinets can be easily replaced with modern shelving storage systems.
A modern narrow hallway in Scandinavian style or a spacious hall-dining room looks different, but such an environment always goes well with light spaces, devoid of abundant decor and decorations. Such solutions can be created without the help of professional designers, choosing ready-made furniture and finishes in the budget segment of the market. This is the advantage of the Scandinavian style - it is available to everyone and always looks dignified.

Features of the Scandinavian style for the hallway
What should a Scandinavian-style hallway look like, and what rules will help bring such projects to life? To turn a corridor into a convenient room for storing shoes, clothes, accessories, you just need to follow certain rules. The features of the Scandinavian style or Scandi, as the designers call it, are customary to include the following.
- Plenty. All unnecessary is simply removed, leaving as much free space as possible. The trend is narrow cabinets and racks, transforming furniture and roof rails. Furniture and furnishings create a sense of one whole.
- Light gamut of colors. Basic white can be presented in its pure form or present in the bleached shades of natural woods. As an addition, beige, cappuccino, heavenly and forget-me-not tones, mint, pale gray are used.
- Natural materials. Natural wood, leather, metal, rattan provide an interesting and at the same time not too catchy design.
- Practicality. Each element of the hallway has a purely practical purpose. Laconic forms, ergonomics of storage systems, multi-tiered shelves and racks.
If there are niches in the interior, they are 100% used.

Interior design ideas
By creating an interior design in a Scandinavian style, you can realize the most daring and interesting design ideas. A totally white hallway will look bold and unexpected, especially if you make it matte and fill it with bright details of the same color. Red, yellow, or orange are suitable for contrast.
A recognizable detail of any Scandinavian-style interior is gray-white natural wood or taupe. It is tinted, preserving the natural texture, and is used in the decoration of floors and furniture. The lower part of the walls can be made a rich gray, the top - white, visually stretching the room. If you paint one wall in a graphite tone, you get the effect of expanding the space. Another Scandinavian favorite is the olive-tinted hallways with wooden floors and white furniture. They look calm and harmonious, provide a feeling of coziness. Several shades of olive and green in one room will add volume and complexity to the interior.

Small hallway in scandi style
Especially often in the Scandi style, a small hallway is made out. Where modern furnishings fail to cope with their tasks, the traditional orderliness of northerners' dwellings comes to the fore. A compact narrow hallway should be as free of bulky parts as possible. You should not install a huge wardrobe or a full-fledged chest of drawers here. Lightweight hangers and wall rails will do the job just as well.
Hanging shelves are used to store hats in a small Scandinavian-style hallway, and a narrow cabinet can be installed for shoes. Mandatory in the interior are mirrors in oval frames or rectangular, along the entire width of the wall. With the choice of backlighting, you should also focus on minimalism. Several bright directional luminaires will provide the desired illumination intensity.

Scandinavian style hallway in a cottage
In a country cottage, the entrance hall most often combines the functions of a hall or is combined with a kitchen-dining room. In this case, it is better to leave full-fledged wardrobes for a dressing room or pantry. In such a hallway, racks for shoes and small things - gloves, scarves, hanging shelves or a special hanger for hats, baskets for umbrellas will be relevant. Homespun carpets in gray or beige tones will look cozy on a wooden floor. It is better to make the walls neutral - white, gray.
In the interior of the cottage, you can turn a spacious square hallway into a small living room. If it is connected to the kitchen, it will be useful to add a bar counter and several high stools to the decor, as an element of zoning. A small soft sofa for visitors and a low coffee table would also be appropriate.
In general, the Scandinavian style is rather informal and leaves a lot of freedom in choosing a design solution.

Finishing materials
In order to make a Scandinavian-style hallway, you will have to choose simple, textured and natural materials in the decoration. It is better to buy wallpaper on the walls for painting or white, textured, with geometric ornaments.Wood or brick surfaces can be partially retained as bright accents. A prerequisite is perfectly flat surfaces. You can use plaster, whitewash to achieve the desired effect.
Only natural wood and its imitations are suitable for finishing the floor - laminate, parquet board. For high traffic, rectangular porcelain stoneware modules that imitate wood are suitable. The ceilings in Scandinavian interiors are always white, with a pure natural color. You can use the usual whitewash or choose stretch matte canvases - this option is suitable if you cannot completely level the coating.

Organization of lighting
Scandinavian style means pretty bright lighting. The ideal solution would be the presence of windows or no openings. But in a typical apartment, you will have to artificially create the required backlight intensity. In the false ceiling, you can mount spotlights with energy-saving energy-saving lamps. You can embed long narrow lamps into furniture bodies or hang laconic LED lamps in flat shades on the ceiling.
Chandeliers-balls made of natural materials look interesting in the interior of the hallway - there can be several of them in a row. Spot lighting will be created by sconces on the walls. It is very important to avoid excess color. Matte white shades and lampshades will fit much better into the decoration than bright or gilded ones. Design lamps or industrial lamps go well with the Scandinavian style in the interior, you can also use directional spotlights or original wicker floor lamps.
If there is a window in the room, it should be equipped with horizontal white blinds. They will allow you to vary the intensity of the lighting and will not be discordant with the interior.

Scandi style furniture
The selection of Scandinavian-style furniture implies the use of simple in form and functionally filled structures. Among the options that can fit into the interior:
- white wardrobe to the ceiling with mirrored doors;
- narrow corner cases (important if the front door is located in the middle);
- shoe rack-sofa;
- cabinets and poufs with storage space inside;
- narrow dressers;
- a dressing table with a large mirror placed in a niche;
- banquets at the entrance.

All these elements do not overload the interior and at the same time make it interesting and stylish. The presence of transforming, folding, roll-out units makes storage systems in the hallway especially convenient. If the apartment is small, this may be relevant due to the lack of other places for storing things. Narrow shelving will be a good way to delineate space, especially when it comes to a studio where there are no partitions.
White modules or taupe-colored structures up to 1 meter high will help to separate the hallway area from the rest of the space.
