The entrance gives visitors an impression of the prevailing decor in the home and reflects the owners' taste. Therefore, great attention must be given to its design to exude luxury in every detail. In this context, We provides a set of helpful tips for designing an attractive entrance.
Key Elements of Luxurious Entrance Design:
In the following paragraphs, you'll find a collection of essentials to consider when designing a luxurious entrance.
- If the entry is open to the reception area, achieving color and material harmony between the two spaces is essential.
- Wood, glass, and marble are among the most common materials in modern entrance design.
- Opt for light neutral colors to paint the entry walls, as they are trendy this year and convey spaciousness and comfort.
- In a narrow entrance, decorative elements should be limited to the walls. In a spacious entrance, a small seating area or various items are welcome.
- Adorn the walls with soft wallpaper to enhance the sense of luxury in the space.
- Mirrors are essential elements in the entry. Placing a mirror above the console table or covering an entire wall achieves captivating reflections.
- Consider adorning one of the side walls with a large abstract painting in light colors.
- Shade-loving plants, especially succulents, rejuvenate the entrance. Distribute large plant pots in empty corners or small pots on the console table's surface.
- Opt for a ceiling design using “gypsum board,” in the form of a low box-like structure below the main ceiling and in a light color. Concealed lighting units should be installed in the ceiling to create reflections on the walls.
- Modern entry accessories include artwork, floor lighting units, vases, scented candles, as well as a rug that can appear as an artistic piece. The rug could be richly patterned and colored or modern and abstract.
The Allure of Lighting:
Lighting plays a crucial role in the entrance, similar to any indoor space, and includes:
- Modern lanterns made of iron and glass. Place them in varying sizes on the console table or in a corner if available.
- Chandeliers are indispensable in a luxurious entry. They serve as the main focal point in the design and can be made of glass or brass, appearing ornate. [All photos from shutterstock.com]
