I'm going to be laying 800 sq. feet of flooring on the main level. I've completed the office and it went well.

I'm not to the point where I need to do the rest of the level at once. I'm going to start at the front of the house and move towards the back. The question I have is as I move forward nailing down the floor I will be going through a hallway on the left and a hallway on the right. I'm wondering how I will meet up to eachother when the room opens up again on the other side of the hallways?

Each hallway has a different length so they will not meet up at the same time? Should I break up the rooms and put transition pieces? One hallway opens up in a spot where I'd rather not put a transition piece.

Does this make sense, It is hard to explain without a picture.
