(Image credit: Future)
When painting our homes, it’s all too easy to forget the hallway; after all, it’s not as if we spend much time in this particular room.
There are a range of hallway ideas out there, but painting the hallway is a great way to transform the space.
The hallway is the first space any guest sees in the home, as well as being an important connecting point between rooms. The hallway deserves some serious design attention, especially when it comes to clever color choices. Besides often being overlooked, they’re also cursed with limited light and no natural focal point, so you need some solid color know-how to transform them into artful spaces.
As well as looking inviting in its own right, a hallway color scheme should set the tone for the rest of your home. Move it up on your decorating agenda: it’s a place to be bold and show your personality. Winning hallway paint ideas pay attention to the mood, size and natural light, so whether you go for something playful or serene, here are some hallway paint ideas to get you started.
Hallway paint ideas – 15 clever color and paint ideas for your home's entrance
Paint is a remarkable decorating medium. What could be easier – or more impactful than paint? Explore our top hallway paint ideas below for some beautiful inspiration for updating your hallway space.
1. Create a striking feature wall

Using paint to create a striking feature wall is a great way to add drama and impact to your hallway space. No matter the size of your hallway, adding a splash of bright color to a wall adds personality and charm. In this hallway, the warming red-orange paint creates a cheerful, inviting atmosphere, with the rug perfectly coordinating with the paint color to elevate the scheme, a great example of red hallway ideas.
2. Embrace neutrals

For a calming, relaxed style, opt for a muted, neutral color palette, with shades of cream, grey and brown working well for neutral room ideas.
These colors can coordinate with an array of accent colors, so are great if you would rather use brighter colors through accessories and furniture, allowing a subtle introduction to other colors used throughout the rest of the home.
3. Pick a pale pink

Pink room ideas and decorating a pink room will always be guaranteed to lift spirits and create an inviting, welcoming space - perfect for hallway paint ideas. If your hallway is on the smaller side or lacks natural light, picking a light shade like pale pink will make the space feel bigger and brighter.
4. Paint the front door

If you would rather your hallway were painted a more neutral color but still want to inject a pop of color, painting your front door is a great way to add character and charm to the space. Pick a contrasting color to the rest of your scheme for an impact, or opt for a tonal color for a more coordinated look.
5. Use a warm yellow

In color theory, yellow is known for creating feelings of happiness and creativity, with yellow room ideas becoming increasingly popular for the modern home. When decorating with yellow, the color is the perfect choice for the hallway, as being greeted by this stimulating color creates a positive and welcoming mood, ideal for that first entry point into the home.
Psychologist and wellbeing consultant Lee Chambers states, ‘entering a yellow hallway is likely to make you feel happy and vibrant…yellow is perfect in a hallway for creating a sunny welcome – and a creative burst as you leave’. See our yellow hallway ideas for more inspiration.
6. Create a harmonious color scheme

When there are clear views from a hallway into neighboring rooms, think carefully about your choice of paint ideas to ensure that the eye is drawn naturally from one space to the next.
Don’t think you have to stick to one hue: instead create a palette out of complementary hues, such as taupe, greige and off-white. One way of linking rooms is through common flooring, while using different papers or paint colors to create separation. Vice versa works too.

The design possibilities with paint are endless. And, thankfully, there is much to be said for decorating in a single color palette, especially when considering small hallway ideas.
'If introducing color in a hall, monogamy serves well and the bold choice of one hue for floor and wall treatments can be very powerful,' says interior designer Tara Bernerd .
Keeping the floor within the same color palette as the walls also helps to blend the room together – if nothing stands out, then your eye will flow around a space and in a narrow hallway this can be key to making it feel larger.
8. Be brave when it comes to color in the hall
(Image credit: Future)
Over the last few years, we have been led to believe that white walls are the only way to go.
A plain and neutral base can indeed be a good starting point from which to build a decorating scheme, but if you ignore the spectrum of colors available in paint, you could be missing out. Many brands now produce paint, so tricky decisions are often already made for you when it comes to creating perfectly coordinated combinations. Be brave and find a color scheme that work for you.
Paint doesn't have to be pedestrian. Look for uplifting shades that make you feel good. Color should be able having fun, and the hallway is the perfect place to experiment with paint ideas that spark joy.
9. Go for an all-grey hallway color scheme
(Image credit: Paul Raeside / Future)
Grey hallways offer infinite possibilities for making spaces feel airy and relaxing, refined, and timeless, or elegantly sophisticated, but its most redeeming quality is the feeling of calm it creates in any space,' says Farrow & Ball's color curator Joa Studholme.
Dark greys can work superbly in light starved halls to create drama on arrival and make all adjacent rooms look spacious and unapologetically bright.
Pale greys provide a softer alternative to whites, while deep dark greys are packed with drama allowing contrasting shades to pop against their bold backdrop. While the darker shades usually have the strongest appeal, when push comes to shove, having such a deep color on the walls may be too much of a commitment for some.
The key is to choose the right undertone for your space. 'With almost as many grey paint colors to choose from as off-whites, finding the perfect grey can be a minefield,' says Benjamin Moore director, Helen Shaw.
10. Use paint to add interest to architectural features
(Image credit: James Merrell / Future)
Shun the default white for doors in favor of a more dramatic approach. Architectural details such as panelling, rails and coving provide a framework in which to explore color.
Mouldings and architraves are easy to add to plain walls and can then be customised in a favorite color scheme. A bold shade always looks very smart – and works wonderfully when contrasted with brilliant white.
11. Reach for the green paint
(Image credit: Simon Brown / Future)
Green hallway ideas promise to renew your connection to nature and is said to evoke feelings of balance and vibrancy. It comes to life with plenty of natural light but can also work in a dark or small hallway.
'Green is incredibly versatile, and the breadth in shade and tone is huge,' says Megan Holloway, marketing manager at Sofa Workshop.
You shouldn't be afraid to pair greens along the color spectrum – all colors complement green. However, choosing accent colors – whether that is the green or another color – needs to be done carefully to ensure there's harmony, which is what green is all about.
12. Paint wall panelling
(Image credit: Brent Darby / Future)
Fitting wall panelling vertically will make a room feel taller, making it a great trick for small rooms, such as the hallway. Painting it in a pale color will further emphasize the room's proportions, and introduce architectural interest and intrigue.
13. Decorate in an all-white color scheme
(Image credit: Alicia Taylor / Future)
Nothing surprising about this, but brilliant white paint has a transformative effect on interiors. For white hallway ideas, use it on walls and ceilings and it will make a star of every non-white piece of furniture – or soft furnishings.
White is a wholly selfless paint shade, providing all the light and energy while reflecting the attention elsewhere – and white decorating ideas are incredibly easy to switch up.
14. Paint your hallway in a tranquil shade of blue
(Image credit: Future)
Calm, cool and collected, decorating with blue is win-win: not only does it make a beautiful base for a hallway color scheme but it’s scientifically proven to be a subconsciously serene shade, making it the perfect choice for an entrance or foyer.
Most colors go well with blue, although introducing warmer shades, such as yellow, orange and red will add warmth to the scheme where it might otherwise be lacking.
If in doubt, revisit the color wheel for inspiration for your blue hallway ideas.
15. Embrace a bold color scheme
(Image credit: Future / Jake Curtis)
Being imaginative with color, a specialist finish or decorative effect is the perfect way to give your hallway individual style.
‘Current trends show a real shift towards brighter colors with a clean-cut finish,’ says Sue Kim, senior color designer at Valspar . ‘When choosing a paint color for an entrance, don’t forget to look beyond the walls – consider the ceiling, skirting, window frames and mouldings and how they can be brought into the scheme.’
If you really want to go bold, then consider embracing this year's biggest paint trend – color drenching. This trend involves choosing one color and painting it across multiple surfaces in one space. The result is bold and thoroughly modern, though its appeal extends beyond its daring aesthetic.
How do you pick a hallway color?
When picking a paint for your hallway it is worth noting that lighter colors will give the appearance of more space, while darker tones will bring the room in, although this can be good if it results in a cozier, more intimate feeling.
The same applies to wallpaper – a large motif will introduce a sense of drama, while a smaller design will be subtle and make the hallway appear more spacious.
Be sure to view the hallway as an integral part of your home, and as such try to make sure it’s in harmony with any rooms leading off it, as well as with the stairway, balustrades and landing (when visible). Don’t treat it as a one-off room: ensure any paint colors or wallpaper designs, even if they are different from those in the surrounding rooms, are in keeping.

Should hallways be painted light or dark?
Whether your hallway should be painted a light or dark color can depend on factors such as the size of the space and how much natural light the room receives. If your hallway is on the smaller size or quite dark, opting for a light paint color will make the room feel bigger and brighter.
Simon Morris, Marketing Manager at The Radiator Company states, 'hallways often have limited proportions but are some of the busiest places in our homes.
We need the space to look great, but also ask a lot from them. A bit of thoughtful planning can help the space feel more elegant from a decorating standpoint'.
Ultimately, it is completely up to you what color you choose. The hallway is a great place to get creative and use colors and paint ideas that reflect the rest of the decorating scheme in your home, whether you opt for a light or dark color, the space should reflect your personality and thoughtfully welcome you into the home.

Painting and drying chambers and complexes | Paint shop with open areas
PAINTING AND DRYING BOOMS AND LARGE SIZE PAINTING SHOPS BLASTSE
We offer pre-project engineering, production and supply of industrial painting and drying booths and lines.
A separate offer includes the organization of an industrial paint shop on the basis of an existing site or from the initial stage of an investment project. Painting booths and large-sized painting rooms are independent painting and drying complexes for painting various metal products, including massive and large-sized structures. nine0003
Advanced manufacturability and reliability, together with European engineering of production and execution, provide the buyer with a modern technological complex for applying industrial paint coatings in accordance with the directives of technical regulations and the requirements of paint manufacturers' specifications.
Design solutions used in the production of equipment guarantee optimal temperature conditions for painting and drying, increase the competitiveness of products due to the procedural acceleration of painting and polymerization of applied materials. The benefits of BlastSE booths and area paint include: significant energy savings through the use of highly efficient ventilation systems and environmental protection through systemic exhaust and capture of harmful substances.
nine0003
INDUSTRIAL PAINTING AND DRYING BOOMS
We manufacture and supply industrial spray booths that provide the user with the opportunity to paint the surface with high quality, observing the regulatory procedures and painting regulations. This is a closed type room, inside which paints are applied with their subsequent polymerization in the established temperature regime.
The structure of the housing can be designed as a continuous or dead end, with exhaust ducts buried in the foundation or without foundation recesses with lateral filtration. With the division into two or more painting zones, not only by an internal partition, but also by spatial zoning of the volume with the functioning of aggregate saturation corresponding to each independent painting zone. Upon request and agreement, a lot of additional optional extensions and engineering solutions are possible, including shot-blasting and painting complexes , designed and supplied with integration into production.
The chamber is equipped with devices that trap harmful components of paint suspensions to protect the natural environment. For these tasks, a dry cleaning technique is used using multi-layer filter cleaning mats that highly effectively retain fine mist and dye particles. For air supply and exhaust during the working process, the spray booth is equipped with explosion-proof ventilation equipment. This is a combined aggregate group mounted in a single block module - an installation for supply, exhaust, heating and recirculation of air flows. nine0003
The number of recirculation units and their total capacity is determined by the initial data, including the intensity of painting operations and the main paint and varnish materials used. Each installation is a complex unit with the following structural elements:
— Supply section with explosion-proof pair of electric motor-radial fan with direct electric drive, installed design capacity (m3/h) and rated electric power; nine0003
— Supply filter compartment for pre-filtering and preventing foreign objects and suspensions from getting inside the unit;
- Exhaust section with a centrifugal fan of rated power and a direct drive motor with appropriate electrical ratings;
- Filtration compartment with pocket filter for filtering the exhaust ventilation passing through the unit;
— Unit with heating heat exchanger and gas, diesel or combined burner with non-contact heating in the heat exchange section.
In special cases, it is possible to pre-install a plate water radiator with hot water supply from an external source of 70–110 ˚C; nine0003
- Unit for redirecting the air flow in heterogeneous operating modes with the Belimo damper, which has a mechanized drive with remote automatic control of the positions according to the current operation of the unit;
- Heat recovery. Each unit is already equipped in the basic version with an integrated cross-flow heat exchanger to significantly reduce heat consumption. The outgoing warm volume, which is removed through an X-type heat exchanger, transfers heat power to the incoming cold volume taken from the atmosphere, generating savings of up to 45-50% of heat energy and, accordingly, the energy carrier spent on heating. nine0003
All paint booth modes are supported automatically. User control is carried out from a single control panel, usually located near the service access door. The process control system is a single programmable structure with a touch screen, with the potential to connect to computer networks.
The control cabinet has IP65 protection and a microprocessor interactive controller with maximum administration of functional modes: lighting / painting / drying / full purge. Hour meter, coordinating ventilation aspiration redirection, monitoring the presence of phases, blocking in case of an accident. Drying timer with time setting and temperature setting. nine0003
Automation bodies manage processes with the implementation of the following functions:
Automatic operation of supply and exhaust ventilation and heating devices of the ventilation group with maintaining a given back pressure and required heating.
Automatic internal temperature maintenance during painting from 15 to 20 ˚C, with drying up to +80 ˚C and accuracy within ±1% of the set values.
Monitoring of operating parameters, accumulation of statistics of operating time of discrete elements and the system as a whole. Blocking in the event of a phase failure of the supply voltage, malfunction of the main damper drive, malfunction of the burner, overheating of the heat exchanger, pressure drop below the threshold.
The possibility of manual activation for adjustment of the main and auxiliary technological equipment is provided. nine0003
Visual indication of the current system status, display of messages, statistical information, set painting and drying temperature with
stored in the non-volatile memory of the controller. Independent operation of the zonal compartments of the USC (the set program of one painting zone does not affect the functioning of another).
Individual setting of values for each painting section and their automatic execution by the equipment on commands from the control cabinet.
The display interface and information labels of the control panel are possible in the national language of the operating party, including Russian with visually understandable conventional pictograms.
In addition, we implement blocking and stopping painting installations upon receipt of external signals "Emergency stop" from a stationary gas analyzer that measures the content of combustible gases, including an indication and switching unit with flammable liquid vapor concentration sensors located inside the chamber.
nine0003
- The amount of solvent vapors is monitored for exceeding more than 20% of the lower explosive concentration limit (LEL), diagnostics of signaling sensors to explosive concentrations.
- If the twenty percent threshold is exceeded, the spraying machines will automatically lock and the painting will stop, and the general ventilation will automatically switch to a full ventilation cycle using the full power of the air handling units.
Installed high-efficiency paint ventilation technology and design allow safe and efficient work in the booth, reducing material losses and speeding up the tasks. Thanks to the proven design of the spray booths supplied, the process operations are significantly accelerated and the production space is used more productively. The operator receives all the conditions for high-quality application and polymerization of primers and paints of a wide range, such as epoxy, polyurethane and epoxy-ester based on solvents and water, applied by airless spray or diaphragm devices.
nine0003
Modern implementation of the engineering configuration, heat recovery, spray booth zoning, gas analyzer explosimeters, require certain investments in the initial period of buying a spray booth. However, even in the medium term in terms of use, BlastSE's technological constructivity not only covers the initial costs, but also constantly generates significant financial savings in the future, bringing substantial savings in electricity consumption and energy resources. In addition, in the long term, such a modern construct, especially when implemented in conjunction with shot blasting chamber as part of a shot blasting and painting complex will save the user from excessive carbon footprint tax, which also leads to increased cost and environmental competitiveness of manufactured products.
ZONE PAINTING INDUSTRIAL SHOPS
The industry of production of large-sized metal structures and large segments of large industrial products requires a special approach to the implementation of the painting and drying workshop, which differs significantly from painting booths with a closed body space.
A large interior painting and drying shop is designed for painting large-scale metal structures with paint and varnish coatings and drying them with the required temperature heating. nine0003
Distinctive features of the produced large-scale painting booths are the creation of the following features:
- The use of a shop crane-beam, moving metal structures in the painting area, as well as the departure of the crane from the painting section to the adjacent shop space.
- Volume zoning using the distribution of supply and exhaust flows with zonal activation of the aggregate subgroup of supply and exhaust heating and recirculation units. nine0016
- Continuous monitoring of the interior atmosphere for solvent vapours. Blocking the pneumatic supply to the spray guns - stop the painting process when an increased concentration of flammable liquids is detected.
- Continuous generation of differential pressure in the involved painting area and the creation of a vacuum in it with protection against overpressure in the workspace of the painters.
- Fitting out of an existing production area with little intervention in the existing building structure. nine0016
- Installation without deepening of floor filtration with the installation of filter cabinets, both built-in and mounted in the form of solid panels.
We realize the production and equipping of workshop painting complexes with equipment and auxiliary apparatus for painting and drying large-sized and complex metal products of various nomenclature of serial production. The complex is equipped with general ventilation, analyzers for monitoring the content of explosive and flammable substances. Provides illumination of the surface of the painted parts in all planes. Lighting devices are installed in accordance with the category and class of application, the ceiling lamps of devices are resistant to mechanical and chemical effects of solvents. nine0003
When the exhaust channels are placed on the floor, the direction of movement from top to bottom is ensured with a uniform direct direction of the purified,
heated air and a dry method of filtering it from paint residues. This determines the best application of layers on the prepared metal structure.
Filter lines are equipped with galvanized steel grids, multilayer filter mats. These elements trap the aerosol mist of paint and its large drops. The paint fog is removed from the paint area, consisting of small particles of paint and varnish compositions. nine0003
PAINT STOP filtration mats feature efficient performance with significantly increased useful life of each mat. Special filter fibers provide the necessary level of compression, protection against clogging and stretching of the material. Air easily passes through the micro-channels, and the entire surface is effectively used to clean it. The filter is made of glass fiber with increasing density, at the beginning of which there are coarser fibers, and at the exit their thickness decreases with increasing density, ensuring filtering reliability. nine0003
Filtration level up to 98% of aerosol particles, flow rate from 2500 to 5500 m3/h/1m2, filtration capacity up to 10kg/m2, initial and final pressure difference 20 and 120 Pa.
At the maximum value, replacement is required.
Version without recesses. The paint shop can be designed and installed at an enterprise where it is impossible to make recesses for ducted air ducts, or when arranging an existing site in order to minimize costs and avoid foundation work. In such cases, based on the initial range of data, we design a filter hood with side placement of exhaust filters and air ducts in two versions: internal free-standing filter panels or built into the side walls. nine0003
No underfloor ventilation ducts in the version without recess. The supply and exhaust system is provided through air ducts and filtering panels arranged near or in the walls of the housing, maintaining uniform air exchange over the entire area and separately in each zone perimeter.
The paint shop is equipped with system equipment that maintains a stable temperature in standby mode, during painting, followed by drying. This allows the highest quality protective layering schemes to be applied under the conditions recommended by leading paint manufacturers, with accelerated curing of the applied coatings regardless of the weather and season.

Air intake from the street is carried out through the supply-exhaust and recirculation heating units, return air is discharged through the built-in heat recovery unit. Recirculation units can be placed both in the covered engine room and in the open area along the walls of the building, including the open area, depending on the design data on the climate at the place of operation.
Unit air exchange modules in the basic configuration consist of filter blocks, centrifugal fans, heat exchange heaters, cross heat recovery, exhaust and supply air ducts, ensuring the maintenance of the required climate standards inside the paint room. nine0003
The automated control system for recirculation units and auxiliary mechanisms monitors the entire infrastructure in real time with information on the current state displayed on the information screen. The interface of the interactive display is made with friendly icons, the inscriptions and text of the monitor interface are displayed in the language of the user's country.
There is a standard functionality of temperature stabilization, protection of engines from overheating, a counter of drying time and hours, an emergency stop button. nine0003
Stationary explosimeter with gas analyzers along the perimeter of the painting room continuously monitors atmospheric conditions in general and in each painting area separately. The monitoring results are synchronized with the control functions of the control board. Based on the emergency impulse from the
gas analyzer, the control controller blocks the power supply of the paint sprayers when the MPC excess sensor is triggered, and the heaters are also turned off. At the same time, emergency ventilation is switched on. When the MPC reaches an acceptable level, emergency purge is turned off. nine0003
The combined technology of the complex with service equipment in any situation, including emergency and unforeseen, makes it potentially impossible for the formation and growth of hazardous concentrations due to automatically controlling emergency functions, as well as taking into account the installed air exchange system.
At the same time, it is possible to use a regular overhead crane for rearranging metal structures, optimal quality indicators of painting with the desired temperature and relative humidity, removal of aerosol and vapors of paintwork materials to saturation below the maximum allowable along the entire perimeter of the paint room. This creates conditions for the application of paint schemes in accordance with the regulatory quality specifications based on ISO standards. nine0003
PURCHASE AND DELIVERY
The purchase and installation of a painting and drying complex gives the enterprise the resource potential for layer-by-layer painting not only of large and small-sized products, but also brings production to a higher level of product manufacturing. Wet painting is a classic, proven and most demanded in the industry method of spraying protective layers on different surfaces with parameters that allow you to get any thickness of the finished paint layer. nine0003
The delivery of painting and drying booths and equipment for BlastSE painting shops is preceded by the preparation of the necessary design calculations for project updating in relation to the tasks of the customer organization.
