The entrance of your home is the first area that catches the sight of your guests. It welcomes them to your abode and it welcomes you each time you walk through the front door. Does your entryway have a style? Is it modern? Traditional? Arty? Tasteful? When it comes to decorate your foyer, there are many possibilities for this inviting space. Explore here, a range of ideas that will help create a grand entrance at home.
When it comes to specific decor ideas, it is an ideal option to start with the artistic potentials your entryway holds. No matter how big or small, your entry likely gives you some wall space to work with. Even if your entryway is nothing more than a gallery, enjoy this area of your residence to the fullest. Start your makeover with a spectacular piece of art. Sometimes one large piece makes the biggest statement and a style icon.
Console tables, benches and stools are three standard furniture choices for the entryway. Continue your makeover by selecting a new furnishing. Of course, what you add to your entry will depend on the amount of space you have available. For example, larger areas can accommodate substantial pieces like the chest of drawers below, which also serves as a bar cart. If you’re pressed with space go for floating consoles.
A curvy chest that too hand wrapped in Belgian linen can add the dramatic effect to your foyer. Make your neighbors go wow with this surprising element. Install a king size mirror on the main foyer wall and watch your foyer doubles in size. Even the artless mirror will dress up the entire set up.
Don’t forget about the icing–the accessories and exceptional touches that really support your space come together! In fact, your front entrance may already hold the basics. Perhaps your makeover will consist of filling in the gaps with a few flourishes. For instance - pendant lighting. There’s nothing as unusual as a grand light (or two) to set elegance in the air.
Patterned rugs can be a very lenient option to give a serene look to your foyer. Not only does the well-chosen pattern add visual appeal to a space, which is often the decisive factor but it also hides dirt and grime momentarily until you have an opportunity to clean the rug. For most entryways, multiple colors and an interesting pattern extend the aesthetic life of a rug much longer than if the rug were of a simple and solid design.
