Lighting
There is no place for darkness and gloom in a bright hallway. Lighting creates a mood, so you have to work on it. The main element is a crystal ceiling chandelier. There are sconces or candle lamps on the walls. They must be installed next to the mirror.
Niches or decorative moldings on the walls also need to be illuminated with spotlights. All lamps should be not only luxurious, but also practical, since in the hallway the lights turn on and off very often.

When implementing such a stylistic direction, pieces of furniture play an important role. Choose mainly structures made from natural wood. Cherry, maple or walnut species are excellent. If the budget is limited, it is possible to replace expensive natural materials with MDF analogues with a special coating that imitates wood texture. The model for such halls should be decorated with gilding and carvings. Marble and bronze overlays are used as decoration. Carved gilding is suitable for decorating mirror frames. Especially if the area is small, a large mirror would be an excellent solution. It helps to visually expand the boundaries of the room, fill it with light and space.

For high ceilings, choose stucco and baseboards. A crystal chandelier with many pendants will complement the design. A popular solution for flooring is parquet or laminate, which has a texture reminiscent of oak. If you want to emphasize your status, decorate the floor with marble. Venetian plaster is suitable for walls. If you prefer wallpaper, then choose models with geometric or floral patterns. Wooden panels are suitable for decoration. You can make a mixed design. The bottom is in darker colors, the middle is in light colors and the composition ends with white stucco molding under the ceiling.
Finish options
The color scheme of a neoclassical hallway should be light. In accordance with this, finishing materials are purchased in pale shades of brown (including cream and coffee), beige, as well as light green and bluish-green. The ideal floor finishing option would be parquet. According to style requirements, it should also be light. It is laid in such a way that the pattern created by the parquet board is complex. The traditional “herringbone” in the apartment is used only in extreme cases.
If you prefer wallpaper, then choose a floral pattern, large and discreet. Panels made of glass or mirror will add a touch of originality. The most budget-friendly wall decoration is painting. This will require additional finishing in the form of snow-white moldings and pilasters. The ceiling can be painted or you can order a suspended version from specialists. Choose a glossy surface of the canvas for low hallway ceilings. A decorative frieze along its perimeter will look impressive. A canvas with a pattern imitating an old painting is not prohibited.

Light colors and bright decor in the hallway interior.
It is acceptable to use a light gray color. The range should look noble and elegant. A successful combination is to combine white or light colors with gold.
This style does not accept sharp and bright contrasts. The corridor should reflect integrity, be uniform in everything, from the palette to the accessories.
Interesting options
Plants add a special atmosphere. They are ideal for a cream colored hallway. A dark table stands out in bright contrast, on both sides of which two large vases with living plants are installed. The mirror wall duplicates them, which makes the greenery visually appear larger.
The mirror in the hallway can be very large, and its frame can be simply huge. Gilded and carved, it looks incredibly luxurious and rich, in harmony with the surrounding interior items.
Properly selected paper wallpaper looks beautiful and expensive. Moldings are used everywhere: on the walls, when framing doorways, on the ceiling. In this version, the frame of the mirror is quite laconic. The chair on curved wooden legs gives the interior a special appeal.
Furniture can be very elegant: unusual shapes, with a glossy surface. Since the style involves the use of symmetry, identical floor lamps are placed on the table on both sides of the mirror. This hallway is filled with sparkle.
The hallway, decorated in gray tones, looks unusual, impressive and stylish. The interior is almost monochrome. Despite this, the mirror surfaces give it lightness and airiness. A black table under the mirror serves as a bright accent. Its design is unusual: the furniture is equipped with two curly legs.
This unusual solution will appeal to those who prefer original design.
Textiles and other accessories
The center of the visual composition in the corridor is a blue closet.
If the corridor is designed in a neoclassical style, then you can use the following textiles:
- Handmade carpets;
- Carefully selected furniture upholstery;
- Tapestries;
- Introduction of decorative pillows;
- Curtains and drapes. The materials used are satin, silk, and organza.
Furniture upholstery should be selected from dense fabric. In addition to textiles, it is recommended to use various accessories. Neoclassical details include:
- Porcelain;
- Wall paintings;
- Large vases;
- Sculptures and columns.
Cabinet decor using sculptural columns, decorative baseboards on the wall of the room.
The latter help maintain the overall spirit of the antique atmosphere in the room.
An important step is the organization of lighting. You need to pay special attention to this point. There should be no darkness and gloom. Therefore, the central element will be a large chandelier. Crystal is better, but other expensive glass will do. Additionally, there are sconces around the perimeter and lamps stylized as candles. Built-in soffits can be used. If the corridor is narrow, choose lamps of classic models. Everything should look high quality, luxurious, cozy and functional. The latter is relevant due to the high traffic volume of the hallway.
Decor elements
The corridor is furnished taking into account its area. A mirror should be a mandatory element of the interior. If you prefer the option with a frame, then keep in mind that the frame should be rich. Gilding, carving, inlay with rare types of wood - all this must certainly be present. This product is a real work of art. It not only adds a touch of luxury and chic, but also makes the hallway brighter and visually enlarges the space. The mirror can also be built into the closet.
In a large hallway it would be appropriate to place large floor vases. The interior is enlivened by flowers and paintings. If the hallway area allows, then a false fireplace is placed in it. Marble tiles are used as its cladding. The portal is designed discreetly. On the mantelpiece there is a place for candlesticks and figurines.

Ceiling
The ceiling can be painted a light color or a stretch fabric can be installed. The lack of height is compensated by glossy shine - matte canvases are not suitable for low rooms.
If the ceilings are high, then you should definitely take advantage of this and add stucco molding and ceiling plinth to the decoration. An ideal complement to the neoclassical style in the hallway interior would be a massive crystal chandelier with many pendants.
It is recommended to select curly furniture models

If the corridor area is small, it is important not to overdo it with massive objects. Otherwise, the space will look overloaded and heavy. Therefore, use no more than 4 similar elements.
Neoclassicism will appeal to lovers of tradition and modern trends at once. The style perfectly combines the features of new and old interiors. Elements of antiquity and modern details coexist perfectly and are combined in one area.
Bedroom
For the bedroom interior, choose a neutral palette that adds airiness to the room. They adhere to zoning rules, that is, doorways are replaced with arches, decorated with columns and half-columns with antique patterns. The number of household appliances is kept to a minimum.
Neoclassicism involves finishing the ceiling with a stretched glossy or matte fabric. You can paint it with milky paint, after dividing it into rectangles with panels.
The floors are covered with parquet or design boards, ceramic tiles. It is a mistake to lay linoleum or carpet on the floors, which create an appearance of savings.
The interior assumes the main role of illumination - the sun's rays from large windows are complemented by soft artificial lighting.
According to the laws of neoclassicism, a large crystal chandelier is hung in the center of the ceiling, and wall lamps are installed at different levels of the walls to illuminate every object in the room. Expensive lampshades of a calm palette are selected for floor lamps. Furniture is arranged symmetrically; paired armchairs, bedside tables or poufs look interesting.

Furniture arrangement:
- The central part of the bedroom interior is reserved for a double rectangular bed made of precious wood. The furniture will be decorated with handmade carvings; floral patterns are chosen. You can hang a canopy made of heavy fabric over the sleeping area. Silk or velvet is used to cover the headboard. The bed is placed along the room, avoiding a transverse position.
- Bedside tables with lamps are placed on both sides of the headboard.
- A dressing table with a pouf is placed near the bed. A pouf with a table is selected to match the interior; the use of contrasting colors is unacceptable.
The bed takes center stage
- The remaining pieces of furniture are placed along the walls. It is recommended to place a low sofa near the window and surround the coffee table with chairs or armchairs. Choose bedspreads, curtains and upholstery of the same color.
- Tall cabinets are placed separately or built-in. Neoclassicism suggests decorating cabinet doors with mirror or glass surfaces.
- Large window openings are covered with expensive curtains with lambrequins.
- The center of the room is covered with a soft fleecy carpet.
The idea of a neoclassical interior is to make a mirror finish on the walls with floral patterns. One large mirror in a gilded frame will add airiness to the room and expand the room. Marble floors or natural stone wall decoration will transform the bedroom.
