- Painting low-quality wood doors the same color as the trim can
give a hallway a beautiful facelift without breaking the
bank.
- Utilizing a neutral palette with interesting runners, art, and
light fixtures can prevent a hallway from feeling overwhelming
while adding visual interest.
- Mixing contemporary and traditional pieces thoughtfully, and
potentially eliminating less functional items, can help create a
more cohesive and sophisticated look in a temporary rental.
