Front entry closet to mudroom - whole hog or just widen door?

I'd like to open up this entryway closet and turn it into a mudroom. We're in Hawaii so no need for coats but I've come to despise the space hogging bifold doors and I don't want to relegate it to vacuum cleaners and such. People here do remove their shoes before entering and we don't have a good spot for that. I'm thinking a nice bench and some presentable shelves or display items that spark joy. My question is, would it look ok to remove the entire closet door wall all the way to the ceiling, or better to just widen the door so it balances with the front door design-wise? You can see the front door in both of these pictures - red on the outside and white on the inside. Any design feedback would be much appreciated before I approach our contractor. Thank you!
