The most necessary furniture for the hallway
Each room in your house or apartment has its own meaning and function. In the living room you relax, meet guests, communicate with your family. The bedroom is designed specifically for sleeping. The kitchen is for cooking and eating. Well, the hallway is needed in order to leave street clothes and shoes in it. And let's pay attention to the hallway this time, because this room is also needed and important, and the right arrangement will make this room as convenient as possible for use.
In addition, this room is the first thing your guests will see and appreciate. And the arrangement of the hallway is a simple and inexpensive process, since in this room there is no need for an abundance of furniture or extensive, cleverly placed decor. Although, if you ordered the design of the whole apartment for yourself, then you should talk about this room with the designer - perhaps you will be offered an interesting non-standard option.
Wardrobe/hanger
Undoubtedly, this room must be equipped with furniture where outerwear could be placed - a coat, a fur coat, a down jacket, as well as hats. For this, two options are used - a standard hanger and a cabinet. The standard coat hanger consists of tightly spaced hooks that are attached to some surface, which, in turn, is attached to the wall. Also, on the hanger there is an upper shelf on which hats are folded. Such a hanger greatly saves space and is relevant in cases where the hallway cannot boast of size. In addition, on such a hanger things dry much faster. But its minus is such that things will constantly hurt, knock down. The closet is often similar to that placed in the bedrooms, but it also has an internal hanger in the form of a metal tube, on which hangers with clothes are hung. This option is more massive and suitable for spacious rooms. The main plus is the fact that clothes will not interfere with anyone, no one will throw them off the hanger and the cat will not hunt for them.
Shoe shelf
When choosing a shoe shelf, it is better to give preference to two or three tiered models. Indeed, even for a single girl, one tier will not be enough, to say nothing of a family with children. Wooden shoe racks in the hallway, although they look good, and they are often moderately priced, you will still put wet shoes, dirty shoes, etc. on the shelf. And wood does not tolerate moisture, so it can quickly swell and crack. The best option is a metal shelf made of stainless materials. Such a shelf will be more stable, it will be able to withstand more weight, and will not be so affected by moisture. It is better not to use shoe racks with doors, as this is simply inconvenient.
Ottoman
It is customary to see an ottoman bowl in the living room than in the hallway. But in the hallway, he can play a very important role. It is needed in order to be able to sit on it. Sometimes you need to lace up your shoes, or wait for your companion to get ready. And standing up to do it is quite tiring, especially if you are wearing a full set of outerwear. A similar situation will arise if someone ran into you for a minute and he just needs to pick up some thing. Of course, the ottoman can get in the way, but if you put it near the shoe rack, then its effect on the room will be much less.
Bedside table
The importance of a bedside table lies in the fact that you need to put useful things in it. For example, keys. Or shoe polish. And also a shoe spoon, a comb, hair ties, an antiseptic, a pack of wet wipes and other important little things that are suddenly needed before going out.
