Homebuilding & Renovating features advice from Nick Duggan on how to design the perfect hallway space.

“When deciding where to put the radiator, try to ensure it is not obstructed by furniture, shoes or coats, as this will impede the flow of warm air. Vertical radiators are a good choice for a hallway as they provide ample heat while not taking up too much wall space, which is often needed for coat hooks and storage furniture.  There’s a huge range of slim or vertical designs available allowing homeowners to select a finish to blend in with their interior scheme or stand out with a bold colour or design.  Another great option is a mirrored radiator design, many of which don’t appear as a radiator at all, serving a dual purpose and making the hallway feel lighter and brighter.”
