Corridor · Art New Tab

Open a new tab. See a work of art. One artwork, one memory. One wall color, one mood. One beam of light, one atmosphere. Corridor turns Chrome's new tab page into a quiet museum wall. It comes with 106 public-domain masterpieces, from A Thousand Li of Rivers and Mountains to The Starry Night, each with an original curated note. Discover great works, learn a little about art, or hang your own photos and videos on the wall and bring familiar moments back into view. ■ Five viewing modes * Gallery Wall — art hung as if in a real museum * Immersive — one work, full screen, with optional slow pan * Masonry — a whole wall of works to browse at a glance * Circular Gallery — walk along a curved exhibition space * Filmstrip — frame by frame, with film-edge markings and frame numbers ■ A gallery you can truly shape * 11 frame styles, modeled on real mouldings and lit with offline rendering, not flat textures * 5 mount styles, with Auto picking one to suit the frame * 15 wall colors plus a custom swatch, with saturation and warmth to fine-tune * 31 wall finishes: paint, fabric, digital, stone and metal panels * Adjustable spotlights (number, brightness, direction, warmth); shadows and highlights follow the angle * Each painting's colors are read so the label and buttons pick up its accent ■ Curate your own exhibition * Add local folders or online galleries and hang your travel albums, family memories, your parents' old photos, your child's drawings… * Besides images, it plays mp4, webm and mov videos (with sound and a volume control) and reads SVG, TIFF, HEIC and JPEG XL * Every source has its own on/off switch and its own filters (file name, format, regular expression) Photos don't have to stay buried in folders. Some memories deserve to be hung on a wall. ■ Bilingual exhibitions and optional AI (off by default) * Works with OpenAI- and Anthropic-compatible APIs, and local models such as Ollama and LM Studio * AI can fill in artwork details and translate the interface and notes into any two of 78 languages * Tap the label to flip it: your language on the front, a second one on the back, like a language flashcard beside the work ■ Today's Selection * A few new public-domain works from Wikimedia Commons each day, as many as you choose * With optional AI, details and bilingual notes can be completed automatically ■ Pause Gallery: press Q (or double-click) * Put the gallery away for a while; the tab shows your own sites instead: ones you pin, Chrome's most visited, and open tabs * Three layouts: label wall, closed-gallery notice, directory index ■ Offline and private * No project server, no account, no analytics * API keys are sent only to the endpoint you provide * Settings, favorites and cached images stay on your device; cached works work offline * Local images and videos are never copied and are read only when shown; images are sent out only if you turn on AI enrichment for them, and only to the endpoint you entered ■ Keyboard shortcuts * ← → Navigate · F Favorite · X Remove · Z Detail · I Info · L Library · M Mode · C Clock · D Download · Q Pause Gallery · S Settings · Space Pause · ↑ ↓ Volume (video) · Esc Close ■ What's new v1.25.2 * Fixed: images from your own folders no longer stay blurred after Chrome restarts — one click on Restore brings them back * Picking the same language twice swaps them; the gallery wall starts out warmer v1.25.1 * Custom sources now play videos (with sound and volume) and read SVG, TIFF, HEIC and JPEG XL; each source has its own switch * Press Z or I again to go back; double-click to enter or leave Pause Gallery * Setting details appear on hover v1.24.0 * A new install follows your browser's language, with English as the default * Clear stale entries out of the Removed list v1.22.2 * Added Pause Gallery, with three layouts * The details page switches language on its own; Today's Selection gets its own background color —— Artwork images are sourced from Wikimedia Commons and are in the public domain.
