Hallway
This indoor bridge is illuminated by a glass-block skylight that follows the exterior walls. With indoor bridges, it is often the case that what lies at the end is of some importance, such as the master bedroom, so the special journey is appropriate. A bathroom at the end of this hallway, for example, wouldn't make much sense. This bridge sits below a long skylight that brings light to the path and the larger space. The glass block helps make the bridge and the movement across the space special.
Lighting can definitely be used to make hallways more special, and in this case rhythmic. Often the doorways that line hallways can be unrelated, creating a random effect (not the case here), so a strong element like these lights can instill its own rhythm. Note the sliding door in the distance, a nice touch that enables the window to frame the end of the hallway when that room isn't occupied. http://www.houzz.com/ideabooks/641717/list/Hallways-With-a-Beckoning-Beauty-All-Their-Own
Moving to double-loaded corridors, we can see that spatially and in terms of natural light they are not as dramatic or special as single-loaded ones. But often they are necessary. This one is treated minimally, with a white wall opposite a wood wall with matching closet doors. http://www.houzz.com/ideabooks/641717/list/Hallways-With-a-Beckoning-Beauty-All-Their-Own
This hallway does a good job of opening views to the landscape of trees, but note how it also rises in the distance to follow the topography. An exterior stair visible through the glass in the center of the photo shows that this consideration of site extends to the spaces outside as well. http://www.houzz.com/ideabooks/641717/list/Hallways-With-a-Beckoning-Beauty-All-Their-Own
And avoid the tunnel effect with some gentle natural light introduced from the side.
