Can I put furniture in my British Colonial corridor?

Most corridors are can be furnished as it doubles up as storage. Corridor furniture comes in a wide variety of designs and styles that are suited for narrow passages and spacious landings.

How do I incorporate decor in corridor?

Most Indian homes have narrow spaces for corridors, so decor should not overwhelm such a small space. Use the narrow corridors to display items that complement the house’s interior. If you want to display a photo collection, group frames in odd numbers, like three or five pieces. Use shadow boxes and art shelves to display quirky, small accessories and try to rotate them out occasionally to keep it fresh and interesting. Lastly, don't forget about your ceilings and floors as well. Ceiling lights, chandeliers or wall sconces can act as additional decor while adding a hallway runner is a way to add colour and pattern to neutral space.
