Wide trim and complementary near-neutral walls create the effect of nesting dolls leading to a secret prize.

1. Let the ceiling lead the way. Changing the shape of the ceiling can certainly make a big difference, especially as it emphasizes the linear quality of the space.

Considered hallways. So many hallways are treated as afterthoughts during the design process. Rather than being considered spaces that can enrich our daily experiences, these hallways make us feel like the proverbial mouse scurrying to and fro. This doesn't have to be the case, as these glorious hallways attest.

This home is filled with a rich and interesting array of shades of green, from neutral almost-beige to pea soup. In this view down the hall, the subtle variations in color lead the eye pleasantly into the next rooms.

The myth: Every room must be painted the same color to feel of a piece.The truth: "Rather than all the same color, I prefer layer varying shades of a color room to room," Williams says. "Rooms can all be tied together with a common trim paint, but varying the shade ever so slightly can help with the flow of the house. This is easy to do right on a color wheel or by creating custom colors at the paint store."More: Color guides for every roomHow to live happily ever after with a colorphobe

Do we need a nice runner on the floor up there? Not this one....this is just the inspiration...

looks like a lit-from-the-ceiling hallway - maybe at the top of the stairs? - and bookcases on landing....like the peaked ceiling (with light) and the sconce at the end and the view down the hallway - with different but very compatible colors down the hall....nice....

These are flush 4 1/2" side and 5 1/2" head casings -- flush with the baseboard too (7/14"). The trim is from 1x poplar which is 3/4" thick. 1x8 poplar finishes to 7 1/4

interesting effect for an upstairs hall -- vaulting it. There is a skylight, or at least a tube skylight, that is bringing light into the interior here.

Trim, colors, baseboard...

Love the neutral that white (or light) wood trim offers. More color choices for the rest of the decor.
