So, ready to refresh your hallway? Keep reading!
A Stylish Console Table
A well-chosen console table can instantly add character and style, while providing a practical surface for everyday essentials and decorative accessories. Our personal favourite, and one to watch for 2027, is the Flow Natural Oak Console Table. With interior trends moving towards multi-functionality next year, a console table seems like the most appropriate item of furniture to transform the hallway. Console tables can offer more than a placeholder for an awkward space in an entryway. These tables offer a decorative display which can be filled with ornaments, bowls, vases, foliage, and photo frames filled with happy memories, ready to welcome you through the door. Some designs even feature drawers for additional storage and lower shelving for shoe storage.
A Large Impactful Table Lamp
Next year, it's all about lighting, and while natural light is preferable, artificial light from a table lamp is a great alternative. The Brosna Cream Table Lamp with White Shade (above) would be a wonderful addition to any hallway table. Of course, it is primarily a functional piece and can be switched on to illuminate a dark hall, but it also features some biophilic design elements. Biophilic design is all about embracing the natural world through textures, colours, and materials. While it has been a part of interior design for some time now, it seems that trend is set to continue in 2027. Thankfully, this lamp's earthy base just so happens to be finished in a wonderful, neutral, cream colour, and is contrasted by a bright white shade. With a sand-like texture, it perfectly encompasses biophilic design and looks great too!
An Elegant Mirror
There's nothing like a mirror to make a space feel bigger. If you're struggling for space in your hallway, it's best to focus on a wall mirror, as it won't compromise on floor space but will still make the area appear bigger than it is. If you have a large, light-filled entryway, then a floor-length mirror would still be a great addition to the space. After all, there's nothing like being able to do a quick outfit check right before you rush out the door, and it also works as a decorative piece when not in use. The Kacey Full Length Mirror (above) is available in gold and black, but we love the black for its gothic vibe. 2027 is all about embracing light and reflecting the outside world, and an appropriately sized mirror does exactly that.
Consider Storage Carefully
If you've opted for a console table with no shelving, cabinets, drawers, or baskets underneath, then you'll need to figure out another way to include storage solutions in your hallway. Of course, you could always choose to design a custom-made unit for your entryway with the help of a carpenter, but if you're looking for a cheaper alternative, we've got you covered. Large benches often come with built-in storage, and there's the added benefit of being able to sit down to put your shoes on before heading out the door. The storage compartment can be used for a whole range of things, including shoes, hats, and even school bags. Blanket boxes are also a great alternative to a bench and offer seating and storage but are typically smaller. As mentioned, multi-functional and biophilic design are going to be huge next year, so the Atlas Oak Blanket Box (above) would tick all those boxes!
Now that your hallway is sufficiently furnished and ready to tackle the needs of everyday life, you can start shopping for elegant accessories to set the whole look off! Shop our entire home accessories range here!
