Cloakroom ideas for a stylish hallway
Back to nature
For nature lovers, the entrance area becomes a quiet pool: a wallpaper with filigree painted trees and two mounted birch trunks create an arrangement that brings nature into the house.
Upcycling deluxe
A cloakroom can be built from old sleds in no time at all. All you have to do is mount it on the wall – and your hallway will shine with nostalgic charm.
Well laced
The filigree work of art offers the opportunity to showcase selected items of clothing. To do this, you can stretch a string criss-cross over hooks on the edge.
Simple and minimalist
If you prefer a minimalist hallway, you can rely on straight shapes and reduced colors. Simple round wooden poles with rope and hooks can be used as a cloakroom.
Boho style wardrobe
For a serving of boho style, a rustic driftwood branch is ideal. The loosened bark and the rounded, greyish surface give the natural product its very own charm.
Living in industrial style
Brass pipes as a wardrobe become a stylish eye-catcher. In combination with white furniture, the open cloakroom is given a calm contrast.
Cloakroom ideas: the highlight in the hallway
The first glance when entering the apartment is usually the cloakroom. It is logical that this should not exactly expose chaos! That’s why we have a few tips for you on how to turn your wardrobe into an eye-catcher:
- Be sure to match the size of the wardrobe with your choice of clothing: Put away clothes that are not needed seasonally and only leave the clothes in the hallway that you really need. So everything stays nice and tidy. According to the number of clothes, the size of the cloakroom or the hanging options or hooks should be planned.
- Create enough shelf space and storage space next to the cloakroomif you have shoes and small items such as B: Want to put a scarf, cap, hats, scarves, etc. in the hallway. If you want to stow a lot of small things in the entrance area of the hall, you should rather use lockable storage options, whereas open shelves are suitable for a few selected things that have to be quickly accessible.
- In addition to the aesthetic aspect, make sure that the wardrobe is functional: If necessary, there is space for an umbrella stand or a mirror to quickly check your outfit. A small seat next to the shoe cabinet can also be an advantage if there is enough space.
- Integrates the cloakroom design into the design concept of the hallway. In a small hallway, a filigree, straight wardrobe is ideal, which creates structure. If, on the other hand, there is more space available, a larger cloakroom with offset hooks and more furniture for storage space can be accommodated.
