Whether you call it a foyer, an entryway, or a passageway, your home’s entrance deserves its own style of interior decor and, of course, layers of character. After all, it has the power to positively impact the visitor. Plus, in the truest sense, it is symbolic of the overall design of your home and sets the right expectations. If you’re looking to give your passageway a decor makeover, this blog is for you. Let’s get going.
If you have wooden flooring in your passageway, you can complete the look with an antique wooden cabinet and a gorgeous painting to go with it. Take a look at the image above. Every element is in perfect sync with each other and gives this passageway a hip and cool vibe. The wooden walls on either side only to the texture of the space and make it look inviting.
If you have a small entrance hallway, why not go for a Scandinavian design (as shown here). If you’re someone who loves plenty of natural light, give your passageway a makeover by infusing fresh, vibrant green plants. You can add a furry rug and go for a subtly-designed wooden metal bench to elevate the design’s aesthetics and give your passageway a personalized touch.
For those who do not have a lot of space to experiment with, this simple yet elegant design works wonders. Depending on the space, you can place a lightweight cabinet that’s not too bulky to look at. It’s a functional piece of furniture that serves as a storage space-saver within your passageway. To complete the look, add a compact bench on the other side, and as add-ons, place soft, light-coloured rugs. Your passageway will be transformed in no time!
If your hallway is even more compact (think: NYC-homes-type compact), the design aesthetics shown above can help. All you need to do is pick a cohesive colour–black in this case–and place simple furniture in the same tone and shade. In this case, you have a gorgeous black rug that perfectly complements the blue-black bench as well as the long mirror and hooks. This kind of industrial design is an evergreen choice. It’ll never get boring!
If your passageway is intrinsically all-white, adding wooden flooring, a wooden framed mirror, wooden hooks, and a wooden bench can blend well with the all-white furniture. Take a look at the image shown here and let inspiration strike!
If you’re someone who prefers something more modern, this passageway decor is worth considering. You’ve got an intricately-framed silver mirror that sits well with a wooden cabinet. The use of a wooden tile in that specific area makes sure that the passageway stands out. Even though you have an exposed brick wall and wooden tiles all in the same space, this design doesn’t look cluttered!
A rather unusual choice but a great one! Use a heady combination of black and white decor elements to give your passageway a retro vibe! Notice the unusual seating style in the image above, which makes this passageway a cut above the rest. The space not only looks beautiful but is highly functional as well! Add bold soft furnishings and you’re good to go!
The placement of shelves can add layers of character and class to your entrance. Take a look at the image above. The two asymmetrical shelves, ironically, add symmetry to the space. You can place modern pots or any other decor items of choice, which will double up as statement pieces. A textured grey wall in the back with a grey pouf on the side completes the look in terms of the colour palette.
Your entryway is literally the gateway to your warm and cosy home. It should set the expectation in terms of design and aesthetics and reflect your home’s intrinsic style through thoughtful design.
