Why are hallways still so impractical and kitchens so white?

Have you ever wondered why hallways often seem so impractical and why so many kitchens still stick to white? Let's take a closer look and maybe we can find the answers!

The front room — first impression, but often last on the list

The hallway is the first place you see when you enter the house and also the last when you leave. Nevertheless, it often seems that when designing interiors, the hallway is the last on the list of priorities. Why? Maybe because it's a transition zone that you pass quickly. But that's exactly why it should be as practical as possible!

Lack of storage space:

Hallways often do not have enough space to store shoes, coats and other things you need when you leave or come. Built-in wardrobes or smart storage systems are the solution.

Poor lighting:

The vestibules are often dark and narrow. Properly selected lighting can significantly transform the space and make it more pleasant.

Impractical dispositions:

Narrow corridors, little space to sit or put things away — these are common problems. Try adding a bench with storage space or a mirror with a shelf for keys and small things.

White kitchen - a classic that does not get tired?

White kitchens are beautiful, clean and timeless. But why are so many kitchens still in white? Is it just because it's the safe choice?

Optical effect:

White color visually increases the space and gives it freshness. In smaller kitchens, this is a great advantage because the white surfaces reflect light and the space feels larger and more airy.

Versatility:

White is a universal color that is easy to combine with other colors and materials. You can afford to get creative with accessories, appliances or kitchen utensils.

Minimalism:

Contemporary trends in design often prefer a minimalist and clean look. White color perfectly complements this style and gives the kitchen a modern and elegant look.

How to change it?

If you are already bored with a white kitchen or an impractical hallway, do not be afraid of changes. You can add color accents to the kitchen with tiles, kitchen utensils or even colored appliances. You can make your hallway more comfortable with smart furniture, better lighting, and storage solutions to suit your needs.
