Just two colors are enough for a stylish hallway design. Surprisingly, black and white does not always mean restraint and classics, in some cases it can look very modern and fashionable. Let's see together how to beautifully decorate the corridor in black and white.

The black and white entrance hall looks very bright and clean.

Black and white entryway design

Contents

The contrast of black and white is a proven classic for those looking for a sophisticated and elegant way to decorate an entrance hall in an apartment. The two-tone design is well suited to rooms of any size due to the ability to vary the percentage of colors. For example, in a small room, it is recommended to use more white, and in a large room, you can add more black.

This is a very unusual decision, which not everyone will decide on.

Large entrance hall

Spacious room does not need to visually increase the space, and therefore it can be completely black walls, floor or ceiling. Today, a hallway with a dark floor is considered a fashion trend that is easy to implement at home, it is enough to lay a laminate or linoleum in a suitable color. To make dark walls, paint or plain vinyl wallpaper of the desired shade is useful. The black ceiling is a modern solution that can be implemented using tension structures.

To create such an exclusive interior, you need to understand all the subtleties and follow the rules.

Small

For a small corridor, choose white as the main color for decoration, and choose accessories and furniture in dark colors. A small black and white corridor will become more spacious if you use a minimum of furniture and mount an arch instead of a doorway. Even in a small room, you can organize a black floor or ceiling, but on condition that the walls are white.

The fundamental point in this design is the successful expansion and contraction of space.

Important! To prevent the black design from looking too gloomy, use multi-level lighting and accessories of different colors and textures.

Advantages and disadvantages of a black and white entrance hall and corridor in terms of design

Despite the fact that the black and white entrance hall looks beautiful and fashionable, it has disadvantages that should be considered when decorating:

The last point means that the design of the corridor should match the interior of other rooms, and if they are dominated by light shades, then the black hallway will be dissonant with the overall appearance of the apartment.

All dark things will be visually narrowed, and light things vice versa. This can be very well used for such a small room as a hallway.

The advantages of contrasting design are more significant than the disadvantages:

A win-win solution is a contrasting design with a predominance of white, as it can be used even in the smallest apartment.

If the hallway is small, light shades should be used more.

What colors go well with a black and white corridor: a choice of decor and furniture

Silver, gold, as well as bright accents, such as yellow and red, go well with black and white. When choosing accessories, pay attention to paintings in gilded frames, metal clothes hangers, bright vases, lamps, black and white posters.

More black shades can be afforded in a large space.

Choose decor according to the style of the room, for example, bright colors will fit in art deco, but will be inorganic in classic or hi-tech.

The only black option that enhances any space is bright high-gloss black.

For a corridor in dark colors, as in the photo, furniture with glossy facades or a metallic texture is suitable. Be sure to pick up a mirror in a rectangular frame, this shape is best combined with the severity of the range. Mirrors can play the role of decor, as well as glass and metal elements. A full-wall mirror panel will make the area of ​​​​the room endless.

Using black, you can make the texture of the surface somewhat multilayered and multifaceted, turning everything into an unusual black mirror.

In a large hallway, you can install a mirror cabinet, and in a small hallway, small metal or wood hangers are enough. A beautiful bench, ottoman or armchair with velvet upholstery will complete the design.

White can be used on floors and ceilings to give the room a little lift.

Important! Furniture should be in harmony in color with the decoration of the corridor, but accessories can be shiny, colored or matching the walls, depending on the chosen style.

In what style can a black and white hallway be made

A beautiful hallway in dark colors can be made in different styles, but the most popular are:

Art Deco is characterized by matt textures, painted wood, gilded and colored accessories, velvet for furniture upholstery, carved legs of benches, consoles, chests of drawers, dark floors, glass lamps.

White ceilings are almost a classic because they make the room look taller.

Neoclassicism is characterized by the laconicism of furniture, the rigor of forms, the choice of paintings and photographs as decor, the use of pendant and wall lamps in a classical style.

It is recommended to make one of the colors leading, and the other only its complement.

In a modern style, you can use different combinations of textures, colors, colors. Bright contrasts and unusual lighting, posters as decorations, a bold fluffy carpet, a hanger and other fantasy-shaped furniture are allowed here.

Most often, white is chosen as the main color so that the hallway does not look small, heavy and gloomy.

Floor decoration in black and white hallway

In a corridor with white walls and ceiling, a black, checkered or original floor with a pattern looks beautiful. For the last two options, a tile that fits well into the design due to its glossy texture is suitable. Evaluate how the hallway looks in black and white in a photo with a dark or checkerboard floor. But also wooden parquet, board or laminate will fit into the contrasting corridor. Moreover, the color of the wooden floor can be natural.

Important! The white painted wooden floor is typical for the Scandinavian style of the interior. Elements of Scandinavian design can also be used when decorating the corridor in the apartment.

Choose the color of the ceiling

Black stretch ceiling with lighting - an option for a room in a modern style. It goes well with white and dark walls, as well as with mirrors and metal elements as accessories and decor. The white stretch ceiling with a glossy texture is in perfect harmony with the black floor, creating a stylish contrast, while the walls should be light.

It is recommended to immediately choose furniture that is as closed as possible. So that various clothes, shoes and accessories do not spoil the whole harmony of the interior.

To support a dark ceiling, paint one of the walls to match, this is a compromise for a small hallway where it is not practical to paint all four walls black.

Hallway furniture can be bought ready-made or you can make a unique design.

At the same time, the white color of the walls in the hallway, as in the photo, goes well with any design of the ceiling and floor. But black walls will not be in harmony with the light floor and ceiling, this is important to consider when repairing.

A monochrome hallway is a great opportunity to express your design imagination.

Now you know how to create an interior design in contrasting colors, taking into account the size of the room and the chosen interior style. Follow the recommendations and create an original design that will make your apartment stylish and modern.
