The hallway is one of the hardest-working areas in the home, needing to strike the perfect balance between style and practicality.
Aesthetically, it is the first space guests see, and sets the tone for the rest of the home. But from a functional perspective, it’s an incredibly high-traffic spot that is prone to scuff marks, walked-in mud and scratches from the zips of discarded school bags.
According to the experts at independent tile retailer Porcelain Superstore, the key to a statement hallway is choosing the right wall coverings and flooring.
Abbas Youssefi, Managing Director of Porcelain Superstore, said: “Durable, hard-wearing tiles are an ideal choice for hallways.
“Not only do they look incredible but they can stand up to everything modern living can throw at them. Unlike wooden flooring, they aren’t prone to water damage or scratches and while wallpaper and paint might look the part, they can be easily marked by a mis-flung school bag.”
Porcelain Superstore’s range of floor tiles are perfect for statement hallways.
From classic black and white chequerboards to bold patterned designs, Porcelain Superstore’s extensive collections deliver durability and easy maintenance without sacrificing style.
And when it comes to wall tiles, Porcelain Superstore’s beautiful Cavendish White Panels mimic the timeless beauty of wooden panelling but requires none of the upkeep. Crafted from ceramic, they boast a slightly satin sheen to complement a wide range of interior styles.
Abbas said: “The hallway needs materials that can balance style with practicality. While other wall coverings and flooring can quickly start to look tired in such a high-traffic space, tiles are simple to wipe clean and help the hallway stay looking fresh, polished and welcoming for years to come.”
Porcelain Superstore’s range of hallway tiles are available now, with prices starting at £30 per m2.
