Shabby Chic Entryway & Hallway Interior Design
Ideas, layouts, colors and materials for a shabby chic entryway & hallway — plus the pieces that make the look work.
Designing a shabby chic entryway & hallway
A shabby chic entryway & hallway blends the shabby chic look — faded + relaxed, washed linen, painted timber, pine, creamware — with layouts and details that suit a entryway & hallway. Start with the palette, anchor the room around a focal point, then layer in texture and lighting.
Shabby Chic entryway & hallway palette
Let warm chalk and flax occupy most large surfaces. Weathered pine supplies structure, faded sage can define one cabinet and dusty rose should appear in only a few washable textile accents.
Color roles
A creamy wall color that stays soft without reading as brilliant or bridal white.
The grounding neutral for linen, rush, rugs and unbleached cotton.
A restrained accent for one cushion, faded print or bedside textile.
A useful painted-furniture color that cools cream and warm timber.
The natural wood note that prevents the pale scheme from losing depth.
