It is the space you walk through, not the space you sit in. So, it usually gets whatever paint colour was left over and whatever light fixture came with the flat. But if your corridor looks dark, narrow, empty, or crowded, you don\u2019t need to break a wall to fix it. A few practical changes can shift how it looks, whether you are working on an entrance corridor, a long interior hallway, or a simple house front corridor design.\u00a0<\/span><br><br>\n\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Here\u2019s the thing most homeowners only notice after moving in. A corridor connecting the entrance to the living room in a Noida or Gurugram apartment is generally 900mm to 1200mm wide, with one or two doors along the way and barely any direct light. Then furniture, shoes, and a shoe rack move in,\u00a0 the walking path narrows further. And you are left with one part of your home that\u2019s the first thing guests see.<\/span>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-7079589 e-flex e-con-boxed e-con e-parent\" data-id=\"7079589\" data-element_type=\"container\" data-e-type=\"container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"e-con-inner\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-118a050 elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"118a050\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h2 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">Why Does Corridor Design Matter?<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-ae1b4e7 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"ae1b4e7\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The design of a corridor is important as it sets the feel of the home and how easily you move through it.
