Hall with a carriage coupler: features, design options

The entrance hall is considered a special room, so the overall impression of the entire dwelling depends on how it is decorated. Since most hallways have a small area, the possibilities to create an interesting design in them are limited. A win-win option in this case will be the choice of a classic style with a carriage screed, which will create an original interior.

A hallway with a carriage screed is found in many modern design projects. The main characteristic of this design is the decoration of the walls of the furniture with embossed soft capiton upholstery. You can decorate the surface of hangers, doors, vertical and horizontal surfaces of walls. With the help of such a design technique, you can create a stunning effect, filling the house with a special atmosphere of comfort.

For the first time in the interior, the technology of such decorative upholstery appeared in the middle of the 18th century in France, when nobles wanted to emphasize the chic and luxury of their homes. For today The design of the corridor in this design is gaining popularity every year.

To create a carriage screed, use expensive textiles, crystals and tight buttons. If furniture and walls are upholstered independently, then the buttons are usually sheathed with the same material as the surface itself. If the hallways are small, the furniture is finished in light shades, while the soft decor elements should be monophonic.

The main advantages of a carriage screed (capitone) include practicality and a beautiful look. It can be created using various technologies:

• in a classic form with rhombs;
• with a square harmonious pattern;
• with changing geometry, where there is a decrease or increase in the selected rapport.

Thanks to the Kapiton technique, one can safely experiment not only with the seat on the chairs, the walls of the cabinets, but also with the surface of the walls, where the volumetric coating can have an abstract, asymmetric or rectangular shape. If you select the relief of the upholstery material, then You can achieve an interesting visual effect, ennoble the room and visually expand it, filling it with comfort and domestic warmth.

Before you start decorating the corridor with a carriage screed, you need to choose the right decorative material, which can have a different texture and color. The capiton of taffeta and silk looks gorgeous, but these fabrics are too thin and can not withstand the pressure of nails and buttons when sheathing. Therefore, it is best to choose thicker materials and an elastic lining. Good for decorating hallways are several types of fabrics.

• Jacquard. It is characterized by a large relief pattern, looks luxurious in any style and holds folds well.
• Eco leather. It has high wear resistance, excellent shape retention and easy to fit.
• Flock. Fabric with a pile, which is represented by a chic selection of colors.
• Genuine Leather. Refers to durable materials that can last a long time.
• Velours. It is often called velvet fabric, due to its plasticity, you can create deep folds from it.
• Shenill Relates to natural materials, it is easy to care for and affordable.

As for carnations, they should be chosen, given the design features of the room. In the spacious hallways, furniture buttons look perfect, they give the interior luxury and sophistication.

Creating a design with a carriage screed in the hallway is not particularly difficult, so you can cope with it yourself. The main thing is to carefully prepare the foundation that you plan to decorate first. In rectangular corridors, direct modules are usually installed, which are decorated with vertical panels. You can also arrange furniture horizontally around the entire perimeter, including including the door trim.

In those places where the fastening will be done, you need to make awnings, and install a panel on them. To create soft panels, the base should be given the desired shape, for this it is ground. Then it is duplicated with foam rubber and synthetic winterizer.

After the base is ready, a sketch of the screed is transferred to it. If such decoration is done for the first time, then the process can be simplified by drawing on a sheet of cardboard, marking is drawn and applied to the cabinet wall, then holes are drilled. This stage ends with the fact that all three layers (synthetic winterizer, foam rubber and plywood) are glued together alternately.

The panels obtained in this way are left to dry for 6-8 hours, and then proceed to create a three-dimensional drawing. Clippings are applied to the panel, and the thread is threaded through the holes alternately without applying much effort. It is advisable to start cladding from the center of the structure, gradually shifting to the edges. Great attention must be paid to the folds located between the recesses, they are usually formed from fabric using a thin stick. Durable narrow cords that pass through holes can also be used.

After the manufacture of the decorative structure, they begin to fix it to the furniture modules, where hinges are hung in advance and holes are made. If everything is done correctly with strict adherence to technology, you get a durable and chic finish that will last a long time.Despite the fact that the soft panel at first glance may seem vulnerable to mechanical stress, she is quite capable of withstanding heavy loads.

Any hallway is a small direct or corner room located directly behind the front door. In order for the guests to create a pleasant impression of all the housing, the corridor should have an original and memorable design. For this, there are many options for decorating the halls, among which the carriage screed is very popular.

• In straight corridors the carriage screed on the walls with a size of 1445x745 mm will look good, in addition it needs to be arranged on the seat of the folding chair and the walls of the cabinet. As patterns, you should choose voluminous rhombuses, they should match on all the details of the decor. To do this, the dimensions of the rhombuses and the margins along their edges are made the same.

• For spacious straight corridors you can choose any color palette, but it is best to give preference to delicate beige, golden and light brown shades. Soft square panels in hallways decorated with genuine leather look good in small-sized square-shaped ones; a laminate on the floor will harmoniously complement them.

• In the corner hallways It is important to visually create the effect of free space, expanding the boundaries of the room. Therefore, designers recommend designing such rooms in hi-tech or minimalism style. The main task in the arrangement of such hallways is the filling of the interior with interesting ornaments and geometric patterns, which should be placed both on wall panels and on furniture. Facades of furniture and other decorative details should be covered with a matte varnish, and the interior surfaces of the modules should be decorated with a carriage screed. Glass shelves and volume mirrors will harmoniously look with a soft leather screed.
