Quickly out of the house in the morning, quickly away with friends, just quick to go jogging. One is always there: the key. You usually have a whole collection, ranging from car and mailbox keys to house and apartment keys. Everyone knows how uncomfortable searching can be. Nobody leaves the house without their key. That's why it's worth filing in a fixed place.
Key storage, board and box are possible in different variants. The selection is based on different criteria: The design of the entrance, the safety factor and your own taste are decisive.

Ever since it has existed, the question has been: where to put the key? The first keys have been handed down as early as the late Bronze Age . They were found in the Alps. In the pile-dwelling settlements, robust locking systems made of wood based on bolts were devised. Finding the key was solved by its size: back then, a key was between 30 and 50 centimeters in size.
Keys were used in ancient Greece from around the 7th century BC. 1000 BC Bronze temple keys appeared that were not inferior in size to the keys of the Bronze Age and were carried on the shoulder at a good 50 centimeters.
A safety advance were the since the 5th century BC. BC used Laconian keys, which were forged from iron and provided with a beard. With a maximum length of 14 centimeters, these keys were already significantly smaller.
Celtic iron keys then already have a minimum length of 6 centimetres. However, larger forms such as finds of keys around 30 centimeters from around 450 BC were probably more common. prove.
In Roman times , 6-centimeter keys were already much more common. They were also worn as a ring, which indicates that the ancient Romans were already familiar with the search for house and chest keys. In the Middle Ages , the small key shapes were largely preserved. Only symbolic keys for gates or church portals were made more massive.
Carrying keys on the body has been common since the first keys. Later, the bunch of keys, which combined several keys, appeared. Boxes for storing keys probably already existed in ancient times. They have not been handed down. They were probably made of wood. Key boards are also intuitively obvious. In rural areas, the simple board, nicely decorated, was often used for other important things.
Only with the advent of urban life and the advancement of technology did locking systems with multiple keys appear. Later, there were large key boxes from factories and offices, in which all the keys were clearly arranged. In the upcoming rented apartment, a simple key board or box could be installed directly on the door in the entrance area, so that the key was always ready to hand when you needed it.
Key custody can be resolved in a number of ways. Three variants have proven themselves to this day: the shelf, the board and the key box. They are made from a wide variety of materials and come in a variety of shapes. All three options can be found in a nostalgic design or in appealing minimalist versions made of wood, metal and plastic to match your own style, the furnishings and the intended use.
If you want to clarify the ultimate storage of your key, you can use key racks or key boxes if a tray alone does not do the trick. A board for the key has five advantages in any case:
Quality scores in the details. This means well thought-out overall design, material and processing. Clear, narrow lines allow a wide range of possible combinations . A minimalist designed key box adapts to its surroundings. It becomes part of the architecture. This is an aspect that makes up its sustainability . Ornamental or nostalgic key holders tend to become conspicuous individual pieces with limited compatibility.
A minimalist design clearly follows function. Its simple shapes emphasize the structure of the material and testify to craftsmanship. The deliberate reduction justifies the longevity of the product. Over the years, a key board becomes more and more beautiful. It darkens over time and acquires a unique patina that disposable products will never achieve. With this philosophy, MBK12 competes in general and especially with key boards. Real, solid wood is jewelry in itself and does not require any applied decoration. Especially not with key boards.
Less is more. Decor and ornaments are often fashionable and outdated, then they are replaced. Clear forms are compatible and write their own history.
It is perfectly sufficient if regular dust is wiped. If you set up key racks without decorations, they do not become dust collectors and are easy to clean. Over time, the natural material wood darkens. He gets an individual imprint.
Depending on your own requirements and function, you can opt for open storage for a single bunch of keys, for a board for several keys or a family, and for a lockable key box model if additional security is required.
Floating key racks attach directly to the wall. Depending on the model and load, the use of a drill may be necessary.
Key boards that have become outdated or are made of inferior material are subject to wear and tear. High-quality wood with a long service life and professional processing can last forever. With MBK12 we score with the classic hardwood oak.
Key boards and boxes can be used in private living areas, in the workshop or in the office. It mainly depends on the size.
]]>The following guide provides a good overview of the advantages and disadvantages of solid wood and MDF or chipboard. You will also learn how to bring a unique and at the same time trendy furnishing style into your home with furniture made of solid wood.
At a glance:
Wood "lives". It is a natural building material that is robust and hard-wearing and that reacts to influences from the immediate environment, such as moisture or solar radiation. The characteristic grain and warm color tone make wood a material that radiates vitality and uniqueness.
Wooden furniture creates a pleasant room climate and gives the room a warm and natural atmosphere. The sight of a piece of furniture from the raw material grown in woods or forests with its typical peculiarities delights every viewer. One feels at one with nature when surrounded by solid wood furnishings. Pieces of furniture made of wood have an unobtrusive and harmonious look, which is why they fit perfectly into any room.
Natural wood is a material that can be easily processed and designed by a specialist. There are no limits to the variety of designers. Contemporary floating constructions can also be realized particularly well with pieces of furniture made of wood. With the new ideas of a contemporary design, it is fun to beautify the home while providing the trendy natural look.
Carpenters particularly appreciate the qualities of oak wood. The oak is characterized by a beautiful structure and an attractive colour. The grain and coloring differ depending on the type of oak processed into wooden boards. The color of oak wood can range from light brown or whitish to intense red tones.
A treatment to seal and protect the surface is easy with natural wood. Natural substances such as oils or waxes are ideal for treating the furniture. Especially after applying a wax, the furniture is well protected against the ingress of liquids.
Over time, intensive use can cause small damaged areas in the wood, such as scratches. You can simply remove them by sanding them off. The surface then looks like new again. This ensures that the piece of furniture will last for many years or even decades. A high-quality piece of furniture in excellent carpentry quality can even accompany you for a lifetime.
The abbreviation MDF stands for medium-density fiberboard. To produce the MDF, finely defibrated wood, which is largely free of the tree bark, is pressed into an even wood material.
As this description already suggests, this form of processing the actually valuable raw material wood only retains a very limited amount of its typical aesthetic and natural properties. Rather, the result is an industrial product characterized by uniformity and a matt appearance. Above all, the elasticity of the wood is lost, which can only have a negative effect on the quality and resilience of the furniture and which limits creativity when designing furniture.
The worst, however, is the addition of urea-formaldehyde resins to glue the shredded wood fibers. These synthetic resins lead to harmful emissions from the chipboard and thus have a lasting impact on the quality of the indoor air. A natural atmosphere and a feeling of security and contentment at the sight of the naturally grown material wood with its annual rings, knotholes and its characteristic grain wither away in the presence of these pressboards to a longing memory.
Friends of an unpolluted, pollutant-free room climate will not be happy with MDF or chipboard in the long term. Rather, health damage is to be feared due to the toxic vapors from the furniture made of MDF and chipboard, which impairs the quality of life.
The treatment for wood protection is not quite as easy with MDF chipboard as with natural wood. MDF boards are very absorbent and therefore you need a lot of oil to seal the surface. In most cases, the surface sealing of chipboard is done with paint and, if necessary, an additional nano-sealing, which poses further health risks due to escaping harmful substances.
Damage to pressboards cannot simply be removed by sanding down. If wood veneers are applied to the panels, they are very thin and do not allow several millimeters to be sanded off so easily. So you'll either have to live with the scratches on the furniture, or you'll have to think about buying a new piece of furniture, which is ultimately more expensive and time-consuming than repairing damage to solid wood.
You are faced with the question of which interior items to give preference, solid furniture made of natural wood or those made of MDF or chipboard. At first glance, the living elements made of MDF appear to be cheaper. But if you take a closer look, you can clearly see the enormous advantages of the living elements made of solid wood. You not only bring the wonderful and harmonious atmosphere of nature into your living space, so to speak, but you are making a purchase for a long period of time, maybe even for your whole life. Because damage to the wooden furniture can be easily compensated by sanding and the well-made wooden boards are very durable over long periods of time. Because of its neutral look and combination options with other furnishings, the wooden furniture never loses its topicality, but is always and everywhere perfect for a harmonious room design. In this way, the higher acquisition costs are offset if the wooden furniture is used for a longer period of time. Above all, you are more on the safe side with wooden furniture compared to living elements made of MDF or chipboard because you avoid the toxic vapors from the glues and varnishes.
Solid wood furniture is made from natural wood. The boards are sawn from the tree trunks and assembled from several pieces to form wooden panels of the desired shape and size.
MDF or chipboard consists of wood fibers that are pressed into chipboard with the addition of glue. A thin real wood veneer is often applied to these panels.
The purchase price of wooden furniture in good carpentry quality is higher than the purchase price for furniture made of MDF or chipboard. However, furniture made of solid wood is more durable and durable, and damage to the furniture can be easily compensated. With the purchase of solid wood furniture, you are making a one-off, long-term investment. As a result, the purchase price is relatively cheap compared to buying furniture made of chipboard over a longer period of time.
Can damage to the furniture be repaired?With solid wood furniture, you can even out the damage that occurs over time through daily wear and tear by sanding it down. This is not easily possible with furniture made of MDF or chipboard.
Natural wooden furniture can be well protected from moisture with wax. Protective coatings are usually applied to chipboard.
Yes, you can easily clean them with a duster or a damp cloth.
The solid wood furniture is timeless and can always be combined harmoniously with other furnishings. Their natural look will inspire and delight you for many years to come.

Basically, the more furniture and decorative items you have on the floor, the smaller your room will appear. Therefore, try to attach as much as possible to the wall. There are enough variants for this. Wall shelves and wall shelves are available in countless variants. Look for a rather unobtrusive design in muted colors. A wall console in white, cream or brown ensures that there is no unnecessary commotion in your living room.
It is best to match the color of the wall bracket to your existing furniture. For example, if you have a wall unit in white, the wall bracket in the same shade of white goes very well with it. But you can also create an atmospheric contrast by buying a wall shelf in black. You can mount such wall shelves above the sofa, the sideboard or at any suitable place in the room. They offer space for books, decorations or other items, but should not be overcrowded.
An alternative to a wall shelf are hanging cabinets. They also leave free floor space and can be easily mounted on any wall. Most pieces of furniture are now available in the hanging form. The hanging TV sideboard, for example, is preferable to the standing version if your space in the living area is very limited.
You can create additional storage space on the wall not only in the living room or bedroom. For example, use small hooks on the wall in the kitchen to attach all kinds of cooking utensils. So they don't lie around untidy on your shelf or in the kitchen cupboard and are always ready to hand. Dish towels are also best kept on such hooks. There is another solution for more storage space in the kitchen: get a ceiling bracket, which is best fixed directly above your worktop. There are no limits to your imagination: You can attach wooden spoons and kitchen utensils as well as pots and pans to it. So you don't need any space in your kitchen cupboard for these kitchen needs and you can use this newly gained space in a different and meaningful way.
When buying your furniture, focus on quality and opt for high-quality models. So you can enjoy it for decades. Some companies have specialized in multifunctional furniture. Their advantage: They are ideal for small rooms because they offer additional storage space. The stools and side tables, which you can simply unfold, are particularly popular. Inside, these pieces of furniture offer space for magazines, pillows or other things. A bedside table that also offers storage space makes sense in the bedroom.
If you only have a small bathroom, opt for a mirror cabinet instead of a simple mirror. Behind its doors you will find enough space for cosmetics or your toothbrush. What many do not know: A mirror enlarges the room optically. In small rooms, a large mirror makes perfect sense. If your entryway is very cramped, buy a large mirror if possible. There are now even models with an integrated cloakroom, so that you can use your space efficiently.
Another popular way to style your hallway is the console table. It is usually a quite narrow table that can even be found in a narrow hallway. A console table not only brings more life to the entrance area, but also sets a nice accent in combination with a mirror. Of course, you can also place such a table in the bedroom. Is a normal dressing table too big for you? Then the console table is the ideal alternative and can even replace a bedside table.
Don't you have space for a wardrobe in the bedroom? Be flexible and simply set up the closet for your clothing in the hallway if more space is available here. The classic way to create more space in the apartment is definitely the sofa bed. If you only have a combined living room/bedroom, such a sofa is the ideal solution. During the day it serves as a seat and is simply converted into a bed in the evening.
If you have a rather small apartment, you have to think more practically. So if, for example, a living room table does not fit into your apartment together with a dining table, a single table is sufficient to fulfill both functions. A space that is also often unused is the space under the stairs. It is ideal for storing the ironing board, vacuum cleaner or cleaning utensils. Your book collection will also find space here if the living room does not have room for an additional bookshelf.
Of course you should not do without decoration in your home. Only with individual pictures, figurines or candles does your apartment become unique. But don't make the mistake of filling every free space with a decoration element. This quickly looks untidy and makes your living space appear much smaller. Instead, rely on decorative items that combine the beautiful with the useful and offer you added value. Small example: Instead of individual photos or a photo collage on the wall, you prefer to opt for a picture ledge. Here you can display your favorite photos attractively and at the same time still have space for other items such as magazines or the remote control. Basically, when it comes to decoration, less is more – make sure you design your living space according to this principle.
Continue to use so-called dead corners that exist in every apartment. A mini shelf can be found in every apartment, no matter how small. Here, too, pay attention to a rather minimalist design and opt for high-quality furniture. Shelves made of real wood are more durable and at the same time make your own four walls appear much more comfortable. Another insider tip for creating additional storage space: If you have very high living spaces, you can put a pedestal under the ceiling. Such a pedestal offers a similar amount of storage space as a complete attic. If you don't have one, the pedestal is ideal for storing your winter clothing here.
As you can see, small measures are enough to use even the smallest apartment effectively. One of the most important principles: try to attach as much as possible to the wall, leaving your floor free. This makes your living space appear much larger overall. Continue to use flexible and multifunctional furniture of high quality and use decoration more cautiously.
]]>Hallways can be difficult to organize because they are narrow and space is often limited. For this reason, if you want to create a functional space that you will enjoy being in, you need to be creative. Here are some essential things to keep in mind when it comes to organizing a hallway:
Keep it neat and tidy - try not to have anything out of place or strewn across the floor as this will only make your hallway look messier than it is. Use hooks on the wall for anything that is not used every day, such as B. coats or keys. Very important for sustainable order: Every object needs its fixed place!
Consider adding a shelf for accessories like hats, umbrellas, or shoes. If you have children this can be a great place to store their school supplies so they don't forget anything.
Add some color - You don't want your hallway to look boring, so adding some color will help liven up the space and bring out your personality. Try painting the walls to create a more cheerful atmosphere, or use signs and posters if you want something more interesting. You can even add some plants and flowers if you want an organic look that will reduce stress levels while keeping your hallway fresh and inviting.
If you wish, you can even use coat hooks or stands to neatly display shoes, coats and bags. It doesn't matter where you place them as long as they are functional and look neat.
Use storage devices - using one is a great cue to keep your narrow hallway tidy and organized. You can mount them on the walls or use shelves or boxes that you can put on the floor. The same applies here: Please do not exaggerate the number and size. You'll appreciate how handy these are for keeping a narrow hallway clutter-free.
A solid color rug - this will help you get rid of the hard flooring, plus it will make your hallway look warm and welcoming. Opt for neutral tones like cream, beige or gray over light colors if you want to breathe life into your hallway without making it look cluttered.
The new furniture trend - narrow wall brackets, the practical eye-catcher designer wall brackets made of real oak set surprising accents. A narrow hallway design and slim hallway furniture always pose a challenge: How do you use the available space optimally? How do you make optimal use of all the open spaces so that a hallway can be optimally furnished and designed? With a few simple steps, you can implement a narrow hallway design that is both elegant and practical.
Another challenge is to avoid visual clutter. The risk of visual clutter can be avoided by keeping the hallway as simple as possible. This is especially true when it comes to designing a narrow hallway. Small, but fine and of high quality is the motto.
Narrow wall consoles made of solid wood are also an eye-catcher in the hallway. After all, the hallway is the calling card of the apartment. A beautifully furnished, narrow hallway is a sign of good taste and makes a positive first impression on the visitor. The ideal solution is therefore to use puristic things made of quality materials, such as solid wood or stainless steel. This ensures a harmonious overall picture.
]]>It's no secret that houses are built with many different floor plans. Some have large living spaces, others have more bedrooms than can be counted on one hand. But what to do when faced with a narrow hallway and how to design a narrow hallway?
A hallway needs more than just a door and a few light fixtures. A clever design requires the right kind of furniture to make it as useful as possible. So let's take a quick look at some of the solutions you can implement.
This article will give you various pointers on how to get the most out of your small space, including design tips, furniture ideas, color schemes and smart optical illusions.
Hallways tend to be darker than other rooms in the house because they rarely have windows. It does not have to stay that way! By installing new fixtures, you can install a unique lighting scheme for your narrow hallway.
To add a creative touch to your hallway, consider changing the placement of the lights. For example, instead of placing them directly above the door or on the sides, you can place a ceiling lamp in the middle of the room and add other light sources like floor lamps. In this way you achieve an interesting visual effect when the eye has to discover several light sources. You also light up dark corners better.
So your entire hallway design will benefit if you increase the number of lamps. Also, especially with LEDs, make sure to use a warm color tone. That creates more comfort.
A narrow hallway is certainly a challenge for any designer. However, with enough creativity and attention to detail, you can make even a small space like this look as spacious, welcoming, and most importantly, as bright as possible.
When it comes to hallway furniture, there are many options that you can mix and match to create the perfect cozy space for all your essentials. But choosing the right color scheme is just as important if you want your hallway to be as welcoming and useful as possible. Which brings us to our next topic: Colors to decorate your narrow hallway. Here are a few tips on how to use color to your advantage in a narrow hallway.
Choose soft colors for your walls and floors to create balance. This makes the room look bigger and more inviting.
Light colors are always the right choice for hallways. This is a great way to create the illusion of more space with a mirror without painting the walls.
One of the most effective color combinations for decorating a small space is green and white. The green color will help you relax while the white will add some brightness to your hallway.
There are many pointers on how to maximize space in your hallway, but if your hallway feels a little too narrow for everything you're trying to accommodate, you can try some of these tricks to help you make the most of it , what they have. You can also use mirrors to create an optical illusion and trick visitors into thinking you have more space than you actually have. Try one of these clever tricks and create the illusion of a larger living space.
Use wall shelves instead of floor shelves whenever possible. Because these take up less space and offer more options for height adjustment.
Use the floor strategically so additional items don't take up more space than they have. A great example of this is installing drawers under your bed frame for clothes or accessories. This relieves the hallway of less-used things.
Always start from the top and work your way down when it comes to organization and storage to save space efficiently. This creates an organized look and ensures you don't waste more space than necessary.
A particular challenge when designing narrow hallways is that the hallway should be minimally furnished. That said, it's not advisable to add more furniture if it can be avoided. Especially when you have a narrow hallway, it makes sense to use the space as efficiently as possible. But please only for the things that really belong in the hallway. When space is limited, designer wall brackets work best because they can be placed directly against the wall and don't take up too much space.
It is therefore crucial for a successful design of narrow corridors to place all storage space elements directly on the walls. In general, it is important to ensure that as much floor space as possible remains free. This is especially important in small hallways where it is often difficult to move around. With narrow wall brackets you can store small things in a way that takes up little space and still looks aesthetic! This gives your narrow hallway design a unique flair!
You can choose from many narrow designer wall brackets that are inspired by a puristic design and are suitable for narrow hallways. The designer wall consoles are made of real solid oak wood and look very stylish. They are ideal for regular and small hallways. They allow storing clothes and other valuables in a modern and unique way. Many different types of designer wall brackets are available on the market. There are narrow wall brackets with a depth of up to 30 cm and extra narrow wall brackets with a depth of less than 15 cm. Thanks to their slim, puristic design, they do not form an obstacle and make the hallway appear wider.
If you're looking for ideas on how to furnish your narrow hallway, it's good to be creative and use every inch of space you have. This will help make your hallway look tidier and more inviting. Remember that hallways serve many purposes, so don't limit yourself to just storing things in them. It's also a great place for decorative items like mirrors, rugs, and baskets. Hallways need to be seen as part of the overall picture of your home design. In this way, you create real added value for your home, even with a very narrow hallway.
]]>If your hallway seems to lack wall space, it's a good idea to invest in some decorative hooks. They make the area look light and airy and allow you to hang coats and bags when you get home from work. You can even add a coat-only hook if you want to keep your hallway clutter-free!
Hang pictures on the wall - This is a great hint to set up a straight and narrow hallway. Pictures are also great for adding more color to your hallway while creating an attractive focal point. Be sure to hang them high enough so you don't hit your head walking past them and don't clutter up the wall.
Use hangers and hooks - These are great storage solutions for things like umbrellas, bags or coats when you don't want to hang them up in your closet or cloakroom.
Use Magazine Holders - These are very similar to picture frames. However, they are much more substantial, so they are perfect for displaying photos of your family or children when you want something simple and practical.
Add Baskets - Baskets are a handy cue to store things like shoes or hats that are often left lying around on the floor or under furniture if they aren't put away properly when you get home from work or school.
Hang a Coat Rack - A coat rack is a perfect cue to store items like coats in the hallway without taking up too much space.
Use a New Doormat - A utilitarian doormat can add some extra personality to your hallway. This gives you more decoration options and makes it easier to clean up when the kids come home from school or when friends come over unexpectedly.
Add a rug - This is a handy hint to transform the look of your hallway. Carpets add a pop of color and also help you hide dirt and vacuum cleaner marks that accumulate over time.
Create a Gallery Wall - A gallery wall is an excellent reference to decorate your hallway and give it an instant facelift. It might sound like something that should only be used for larger spaces, but it will make a small space look a lot more exciting and welcoming when done right.
]]>The wardrobe is undoubtedly the most important piece of furniture in the hallway. However, a narrow hallway does not tolerate an expansive wardrobe, even if it is a beautiful heirloom and deserves a place of honor. Instead, opt for a wall-mounted hanging wardrobe with sliding hooks to hang jackets and coats.
Fasten the cloakroom as high as possible so that the walkway is not blocked. Also avoid hangers that protrude into the room, as they make the hallway appear even narrower.
Because we want to have the most important items with us quickly when leaving the house, most people want a wardrobe and umbrella stand as well as a seat and a shoe cabinet. But in the narrow hall this will be a difficult task - unless you decide on high-quality furniture that was specially developed for narrow halls.
One possibility is floating bedside tables or narrow wall consoles that do not protrude far into the room. A wall shelf can be a good alternative to the traditional shoe cabinet. If you mount it a little higher, your shoes will be off your feet and the hallway won't look cluttered either. The height and length of the shelves can be flexibly adapted to your individual needs. If you prefer the shoe cabinet instead of the console, you can also fall back on narrow models here. Compact shoe cabinets with a shallow depth can easily be placed against the wall in the hallway without blocking the walkway. Chic and space-saving alternatives are school dumpsters, in which all shoes are placed with the toes facing forward. You open the individual drawers by folding them forward.
Anyone who can set it up in any way places a chest of drawers in the hallway. If it's narrow, the chest of drawers shouldn't be too deep. A good replacement for the traditional chest of drawers is a hanging sideboard that offers enough storage space. To make the hallway look homely, place a decorative key bowl, a plant or a beautiful vase here. Open, narrow console tables and wall consoles are ideal because they don't clutter up the space. The shoe chest is particularly clever – a contemporary mix of chest of drawers and shoe cabinet.
Here you can store shoes, scarves, hats, gloves and small items such as car keys. Does your hallway have a small niche? Great, be sure to use this space for a shelf. The decorative, narrow wall brackets from MBK12 are made of solid oak and cannot be overlooked with their elegant design. You simply attach the console body to the wall with two screws. The top is formed by three oak trays inserted in a guide, which can be moved sideways. The variant with an integrated magnet at the bottom, to which you can attach the keys, is also very practical.
Corridors rarely have windows, but the lighting effect can still be used for design purposes. Bulky, hanging lights are out of place in a narrow hallway because they make the room look smaller. Ceiling lamps are the right choice and should have a lot of luminosity in the narrow hallway. If you use high-quality designer lights, then they must be the highlights in the hallway and must not be "trumped" by cupboards or chests of drawers. Make sure that the lamps illuminate the room evenly. LED lights and light strips are ideal for making a narrow hallway shine. They are inexpensive and are also suitable for staging a special piece of furniture.
Probably nobody would want to do without a mirror in the hallway, after all we all need to examine our appearance before we leave the house. Mirrors make a big impression in the narrow hallway, because here they fulfill several functions at the same time. Because mirrors reflect the light, narrow rooms appear much wider. If you don't have enough space for a full-length mirror, you can opt for a round or oval mirror above the shoe cabinet or chest of drawers. The reflections give the impression of having much more space. If you prefer the classic, subtle hallway furnishings, you should use the lightest possible wall colors. White and pastel colored walls make the room appear bigger. Strong colors should be avoided, especially in small hallways. With a darker painted front end, however, you can cleverly shorten a long hallway. Expressive colors are by no means a no-go in narrow hallways. If you are brave, you can also paint the floorboard in a strong color, but then at least the floor should be light and not have a restless pattern. An extra large corridor mirror creates additional spatial depth.
When furnishing narrow corridors, every detail counts. Before you start designing, you should make a plan. Always stick to the motto: "Less is more". With the furnishing solutions from MBK12 you get the best out of your hallway and make it a tidy living area where everyone feels welcome. All of our furniture is self-made solid wood furniture and is based on impressive new ideas. Especially in small rooms, they open up unimagined combination possibilities. Whether floating bedside tables, narrow wall brackets or console tables, MBK12 makes no compromises when it comes to quality - you can see that and you can feel it.
Narrow corridors quickly appear cluttered and lose their charisma. Furnish with minimalist, clearly designed furniture. Put shoes away in the shoe closet to keep them from lying around. Narrow console tables and a few, but expressive, decorative elements provide the necessary flair. Do without runners and use a hard-wearing, uniform floor covering.
Light floor coverings, light baseboards and wall colors make the room appear larger. Make sure that the hall furniture takes up little space.
Use two contrasting colors as design elements. The darker color on the narrow side makes the wall look closer, making the hallway appear shorter.
Alternative: Only paint the room halfway up with an accent color. The top half should be a lighter and cooler color than the bottom.
Of course, stiffened wallpapers even have exciting effects. The height of the room is optically reduced with horizontal stripes, while vertical stripes have the opposite effect.
