Ceiling

When choosing a material and color for the ceiling should consider its height. If the ceiling in the corridor is high, then dark tones are suitable for its design, and if the ceiling is low, then only light ones. To finish the hallway ceiling in the apartment you can use:

3. Decorative plaster. This material is more expensive than paint, but it does not require prior leveling of the surface. Decorative plaster can be applied with a master or with your own hands. There are mixtures on sale that are simply applied to the surface and after drying they form a beautiful and unusual relief.

Floor

1. Natural stone is a luxurious and durable material, but very expensive. It is more suitable for private houses that have spacious hallways, and not for apartments.
2. Ceramic tile. It is not afraid of moisture, it is easy to fit, it can be monophonic, imitate externally natural wood or stone. It should be borne in mind that the tile is a cold material, in addition, you should choose among the matte options, glossy models are slippery, so it will not work for the hallway.
3. Porcelain tile is a beautiful, durable, reliable, wear-resistant and durable material. It withstands exposure to moisture, low temperatures and chemicals.
4. Linoleum. Popular due to its affordable price. For the corridor it is worth choosing among semi-commercial models.

In addition to the budget types of linoleum, made of artificial materials, there are more expensive, natural models for sale. They are made from cork and jute.
5. Parquet. It looks stylish and durable, pleasant to the touch, but requires special operating conditions. Parquet is afraid of water, periodically requires varnishing and is expensive.
6. Laminate is a material that can imitate the texture of natural wood. It does not require such careful care as parquet, and looks expensive and beautiful.
