front entry door facing long hallway, any suggestions?
Comments (4)It's hard to tell from yr picture where the hall bath ends. If it ends behind the toilet, with a nook on the other side, then I think if you just take out the stub of a wall and place a nice sideboard there instead, the hallway will shorten by a few feet. That would also be handy for coming and going in the garage, a place for keys, outgoing mail, etc. and provide a focal point for the eye, instead of the hallway. Unless you make major interior changes, that hallway will still be there. Solatubes, even just one in the middle of the hall, can make it feel much more open. An attractive runner on the floor gives it a sense of a room. Eta: you could also put a small solatube in the windowless hall bath.

Comments (34)The table in the front hall looks great! Yes, I would use 2 ottomans. Are these colors that you are using in other rooms? The front hall sets the tone and those colors should be use in some measure throughout the home. You could put art in the tall space if you want. I don't think a mirror would be an issue with our central vac, though....See MoreHow to decorate front entryway
Comments (5)You have an outlet for a lamp on the right (longer) wall facing your closed door. That is where I would put the console. Measure from beyond the swing of your front door. You don’t want your door slamming into your console. Hang art above it and place a nice lamp there. If you feel a bench is necessary, place it on the shorter wall across from the console, or centered on that wall....See MoreRelated Professionals
