A pastel shade for your hallway is a great choice as they will reflect light, making often narrow hallways appear brighter and lighter. Which pastel shade should you choose? We have chosen five pastel shades from Albany you could use to refresh your halls.

Cornish Cloud

Cornish Cloud is a pale blue shade that welcomes daylight into a hallway. Reminiscent of blue sky, using a pastel blue will add a real breath of fresh air into the space.

Windmill Hill

Windmill Hill is the softest shade of lilac and will work with a range of other colours beautifully.

Top tip: If you’d like your space to feel really cohesive, pick a pastel that works with other paint or wallpaper colours used in adjacent rooms to avoid a colour clash! Find out how to choose a colour scheme >>

Fondant

Fondant is a warm, pastel pink with great versatility. Fondant can be paired with other pastel shades featured elsewhere in your home as another example of a cohesive look.

Overstrand

Overstrand is a beautiful pastel yellow that will provide the warmest of welcomes to guests. If you want to bring a bit of sunshine into your hallway, Overstrand will give a subtle nod to the positive connotations of yellow in your space.

Seaford

Seaford is a pale green which will bring in the natural world through light and leafy greens. If you feature botanical wallpapers around your home, Seaford would be a great way to bring them together by repeating the green colour story in the hallway.

Top tip: since hallways are a high traffic area, choose Albany Durable Matt for a finish that will stand the test of time.
