Hallway

The darkest room in most houses, and the one nobody stands in long enough to water anything. That makes faux less a compromise here than the only thing that works. It is also the first thing anyone sees on the way in, which puts two requirements at odds: enough height to register, but a narrow footprint so it does not catch bags and coats. Around 120cm in a slim vessel solves both. Where there is no floor space at all — and most hallways have none — the wall and the stair turn are the answer instead.

Where it goes

Where it goes in a hallway

Getting the size wrong is the commonest mistake in this category. Heights are approximate, but the constraint each surface imposes is not.

  • The floorstanding

    The first thing a visitor sees and the darkest spot in most houses. 120cm and up, in a narrow footprint so it does not catch bags and coats.

  • The console tableabout 80cm

    Passed at speed rather than studied, but at close range. One tall stem does more here than a full arrangement.

  • The wallabout 150cm

    Hallways rarely have surface space to spare, which makes wall-mounted and hanging pieces the practical answer rather than a decorative one.

  • The stair turnvaries

    A half-landing is usually the only spot in a hallway with any natural light. Worth using for the piece you want people to notice.
