Appearing in the Italian Renaissance and fully formed in the Victorian era, classical style today has firmly entered our lives.
Having stopped on it your choice, do not forget thatThis is a brilliant front door style with straight, clear lines, a pull to geometric shapes - from niche design to furniture selection. This style is most suitable for the hallway of the correct form, without oblique corners and rounded edges. The interior of the hallway in the classical style in a small "Khrushchev" will require considerable redevelopment, in order to increase and rationally use the available space. It is desirable in such a compact room to stay on a less refined style.
Most of all, it suits those who appreciate the luxuriouscomfort, solidity and exquisite taste. Such people do not adhere to fashion trends, do not like frequent changes in the interior and redevelopment. Classic style involves the use of bronze or gilding in combination with white color. For those who do not like white, it can be replaced with light shades of yellow, green, beige, which also look good with gilding.
The hallways in the classical style are distinguished by the presencelarge mirrors, various screens and niches, along the perimeter they are usually lined with moldings, which look particularly impressive in spacious rooms. It is these details that create the desired design of the hallway. Classics are molded curbs and rosettes, silk screens, wooden massive frames for mirrors, chasing, carving, expensive parquet floors or granite or marble tiles (it is more functional).
It is better for him to use chandeliers or chandelierswith imitation candles. Classic chandeliers are usually conical in shape. They are decorated with a lot of crystal pendants. Often used and chandeliers with floral motifs. But for the sake of justice, it should be noted that the modern classic style will fit well and conventional point lights.
If your hallway is not distinguished by largedimensions, then the furniture in it should be as small as possible - on the wall there is a classic coat hanger, a narrow small chest of drawers for gloves and other small things that can simultaneously play the role of a table. More spacious halls in the classical style can be equipped with a built-in closet, which is better to decorate with plaster decor, or in the form of a large screen, so that it fits into the overall stylistics of the room.
The main advantage of the classical style is,that it does not go out of fashion, the use of high-quality and expensive finishing materials allows for many years not to change the interior. The same can be said about furniture for the hallway in the classical style - it will not have to be thrown away after a decade, like the good wine, it becomes more expensive with the years.
Hallways in the classical style are inconceivable withoutsoft furniture made of natural wood, curved legs, with magnificent upholstery from furniture satin, velvet or silk. It can be an armchair, a sofa or an ottoman - it all depends on the size of the room.
The premise, sustained in classical style,speaks of the impeccable taste of the owner and his high social status. Essential, although the only drawback of this style can be considered only that it organically looks only in spacious and high hallways.
The hallway in the classical style representsspace for the imagination of the designer. He has the opportunity to apply a wide variety of finishing materials. Today, the walls of this hallway are often decorated with decorative plaster (for example, you can use the "Venetian"). You can use natural stone or tile from it.
In recent years, often the walls in the hallway inclassic style pasted fabric wallpaper with a heraldic pattern or a small, low-key ornament. Some directions of the classical style are allowed in the design of the walls to use painting.
Quite often in the classical interiors forged elements are used. For example, the elegant outlines of the staircase rail leading to the second floor, are also the frame of the entrance to the living room.
Hallways in the classical style can becomplemented by a variety of decorative details - floor vases, statues, fire mantels. If they have windows, they should be decorated with heavy expensive fabrics.
As already mentioned, create a classic interiorin a small room is much more complicated than in a spacious room, besides, and it will look different. However, quite often the owners of small apartments dream about the classic hallway. What should I do in this case?
The main task is not to miss a centimeteravailable space, make it all a small space to work for the homeowners. For example, if your hallway has a niche, then it's a sin not to use it to create a built-in closet, in which you will create offices for clothes and shoes. If there is no such niche, then it makes sense to make the necessary cabinet for the length and depth and place it along a blank wall. No matter how compact the room of your hallway, you need to provide an open shelf - a hanger - after all, you will not be able to hang clothes wet in the rain from the closet.
If you have nowhere to put away seasonal things, thenUse plastic containers and put them on the mezzanine. In case you do not find a place for storing various accessories, then use the reverse side of the cabinet mirror, placing there a small frame with shelves and drawers.
Classical style is considered universal, but notbecause it can be used everywhere. In this case, it is about the fact that the classics do not age, the fashion whims do not concern it. This is its clear advantage over ultra-modern styles.
Anteroom in the classical style - the pleasure is not cheap, but it can be considered a purposeful investment in the future.
