In this case, you need to rely on the amount of money you are willing to pay for the wallpaper;

• Do not forget about harmonious design.Wallpaper under the brick should be chosen based on the main interior and color of the hallway. For example, for a dark room you should not choose the same dark canvases. Look better at contrasting combinations that look very stylish and fashionable;
• Contact only well-known and quality manufacturers. Too low cost of wallpaper should cause some suspicion, unless, of course, we are not talking about paper options.

In the conditions of a narrow hallway and a long corridor you can paste over not all the walls with brick wallpaper, but only one of them. For example, canvases with untidy red bricks should be glued in front of the snow-white wall in the room. So that the design does not seem too monotonous, brick wallpaper can be supplemented with wall monochrome paintings with white frames.

Mirrors with wooden frames on the walls, light wooden shoes and decorative horns near the doors leading to other rooms will add such decoration.

Also, brick wallpaper can be pasted over the wall, where the entrance door and one of the side partitions are located, having decorated the rest of the surfaces with usual monochromatic canvases. For example, you can decorate a small gray hallway and bring snow-white brick wallpaper into it. Against such a background, a bright parquet floor, a soft caramel rug with antique ornaments and mirrors on the walls will look best.

Do you like non-standard solutions? Then you will like the decoration of the walls in the hallway with coral brick wallpaper, the floor with a light gray laminate, and the ceiling with light plaster.
