When designing for #project_goingheights, the hallway that connects the living spaces with the bedrooms provided me with a big challenge. This narrow space was too bland and too long. To elevate the look of this hallway I carefully curated pieces that could make a big statement. I brought in a sculptural console, two bold artwork pieces, and a long rustic runner to create a warm and inviting atmosphere. The combination of three elements transformed a rather boring space into a focal area that now leaves a lasting impression.

1. The Power of a Sculptural Console:

A console table is more than just a functional piece of furniture. Here, it serves as a focal point, drawing your eyes to this scene and making a bold statement. When selecting this console, I consider the style and material that best complemented the overall theme of this home. The iron top with the distressed finish helps bring some character and warmth into this long hallway. I also like the contrast of this piece against the white walls.

2. Creating Visual Impact with Art:

Art can evoke emotions and add depth to any space. Here two large artworks were carefully selected so they could complement each other. Their colors and textures create a visually stunning focal point on this wall.

3. Harmonizing Console and Art Selection:

To achieve a cohesive and harmonious look, it is always important to consider how a console table and art selection will work together. I always like to pay attention to the scale of the console in relation to the artwork. A large console like this one can accommodate not one but two statement pieces of artwork that command attention. And this is exactly what we needed here.
