A practical advantage with having more space in the hallway is the great access of surfaces in which outerwear can be arranged based on how often they are used. Clothes used on a daily basis could be well stored out on the hat rack. Meanwhile, the rest can be stored further into the hallway for instance on additional hooks or inside a closet. In this way, you’ll get a more natural structure in the hallway and at the same time use the space more wisely. Check out our hat racks here.
