Hallway: as a couple, without arguing
You do not agree on the style.
What gets in the way
The argument is rarely about taste: it is about not seeing the same thing in your heads. And in a hallway in particular, it is a dark corridor where coats get dumped.
What seeing it first changes
You look at both versions of the same room side by side, and you decide on an image. What moves is the storage, the mirror and the light fitting — the walls, windows and doors stay exactly where they are.
Try it on your hallway Your photo, your walls. Not a catalogue image.
