When you live in a property that has a double volume space, it could be quite challenging or even distressing for some people when it comes to designing the space, especially the extensively tall walls. Double volume space is a luxury to a property if you know how to make it work and turn it into a gorgeous, coveted space. The tall ceiling and windows that let in more light can give the illusion of extra space and do wonders for your home.

The walls alongside a hallway offer two giant, blank canvas for you to unlock your creativity. Since it’s a double volume space, it provides you with more wall space than usual for decoration. To keep it simple yet sophisticated, choosing a large-scale painting on each wall will be a great way to decorate the walls in a hallway.
6. Staircase Architectural Element

The staircase attached to the wall creates an architectural element and accentuates the height of this transitional living room. The smart choice of the black stairs works together with the colour palette of the space and adds a lot of visual interest to what would otherwise have been a sterile wall space.
