Hallways may seem minor, but after a renovation such as fresh paint, new flooring, or improved lighting they can significantly influence a home’s flow. Staging ensures these transitional spaces feel purposeful and polished.
The first step is lighting. Renovated hallways with sconces, recessed lighting, or updated fixtures should always be bright during staging. Proper lighting ensures the hallway feels open, not cramped.
Artwork can add personality. A series of framed prints or photographs along the walls provides interest without overwhelming the space. Staging with cohesive art emphasizes style and continuity.
Runners or rugs highlight flooring renovations while adding warmth. A well-placed runner also guides movement through the space, subtly drawing attention to its length and layout.
Mirrors can make narrow hallways appear wider. If part of the renovation included wall niches or accent lighting, mirrors paired with subtle décor maximize their effect.
Décor should be minimal. A hallway table with a small lamp or plant works well in wider areas but avoid cluttering narrow spaces. The goal is to showcase openness and flow.
Conclusion
Staging a renovated hallway transforms it into more than just a passage. With proper lighting, art, and minimal décor, it becomes a polished, stylish link between rooms. Staging ensures hallway renovations are appreciated as part of the home’s overall design and function.
