Your hallway is the first "hello" your home gives to anyone walking through the door. It's that all-important first impression so why not make it a good one? With the right mix of clever design, beautiful finishes, and personality, your hallway can set the scene for the rest of your home.

As an interior designer, I love when form and function come together seamlessly, and conversation pits are exactly that. They’re social, sculptural, and surprisingly versatile, whether you’re planning a living room renovation or reimagining your patio area.
