Please help us design our front entryway!
We would love some ideas for our front entryway - love Scandinavian/Rustic Design. We are thinking of changing the handles on our closet doors to black levers.

Help me design/decorate our front porch entry
Comments (10)Maybe a outdoor rug and some metal art on the back wall. Paint a turquoise blue or some brighter color. Or a wreath even if you like them. Like this:https://www.wayfair.com/decor-pillows/pdp/three-posts-4-piece-wall-decor-set-thps3885.html Even if you find something thats more for indoor use a coat of Rust-Oleum spray paint would give it enough protect in that covered area. I would definitely paint the entryway white or some other much lighter color to brighten it up. A colorful pot with dried flowers or pine cutting for fall/winter. You can paint a red clay pot with any acylic indoor or outdoor paint. It weather's off a bit over time and looks "rustic"....See MoreHelp design level entry for wheelchair access at front door
Comments (9)I'd consider landscape architects who are especially interested in the hard-scape aspects of design. In a city neighborhood near me, there's a small house and yard that handled the issue beautifully. The walk from the street divides. Straight ahead, the walk continues level to a couple of steps up to a porch that is perhaps 8 feet deep. The path to the right curves through the plantings. The ground has been sloped so that it is at the same level as the porch at the right end of the porch. When I first saw it, I was more interested in the porch roof and plantings. It took a moment to realize that the path was for accessibility....See Moreplease help us To design a front porche
Comments (1)These are not the pictures that explain the conditions. You need to be standing as high as the deck when taking the pictures and a bit more to the right, so that he roof parts can be seen. You probably need to stand on a step ladder or find another way to take a picture from higher up. But from what I can see, I suspect you will not be able to make a gable roof as it looks like you're experimenting with, on account of it squeezing roof drainage to a very narrow channel which, of course, would cause water problems with the roof, especially if you are in an area that freezes....See MoreHelp with front entryway design

Hello! I’m submitting some inspiration pics to show you the shades of soft wood which would look great in your home! It’s a hard choice choosing between the table and the bench, I think a wooden bench would add more to the effect of rustic and help take the whole place away from the so formal structure it has, but then your entry does have that great art lighting fixture to highlight a piece really nice above a table. With a high gloss paint white on the doors, it could offer your home that nice shine look we all strive for, if your keeping them white. You have the setup for a nice piece of art with the light but I think a small gallery wall would look better, black frame, matted, black and white photo.char1986 thanked Me Ora
