By definition, we think of the hallway as a functional, architectural element that connects one room to another; a space meant simply for passing through. However, this idea of movement, or passage, can — and should — be elevated into an experience, however brief. Think warm lighting, an elegant bench, or a sculptural console. A few objets d’art, an accent chair, a pair of stools, a statement ceiling lamp, a small folding screen, or a hand-embroidered tapestry… The short journey becomes an invitation to linger a little longer. A preview of the interiors that unfold beyond.
