Are you going to have window treatments on the windows in the adjoining rooms? That would change the balance.

Also, a more dramatic and colorful entry rug.

I agree the sides of the doors don’t need anything at all.
You can add a large hanging light fixture or maybe some wallpaper or moldings to the space if you want more oomph

Yes! I am adding window treatments … good point.

Would you add tall round tables or anything to the sides of the door?

No. What’s on the other side of the staircase. Meaning coming in from outside what’s straight ahead to your left? Empty wall? That’s the spot for your console table if you feel your missing one.

This is what you see from the door

What’s with the foos ball table?

Chandler and Joey had a foosball table in the kitchen, so why not air hockey in the foyer? Great use of a space that sees little use. :) (Just having fun; it looks like the air hockey game is in transit)

I would also leave your entryway: “as is”. I think most of the time: “less is more”. Your entryway is beautiful with nice architechtural details in the door, window, and bannister; they are the “stars”!

Thanks everyone!!

Drapery panels will 'fill' the space as much as needed. For sure nothing behind where the door will swing! Right now it appears you have a DISASTER in the making!!

LOVE what you see from the door. Looks perfect. Nicely done

Properly hung drapes in the adjoining room will take up a lot of that space. You might find room for a piece of art centered 5'above the floor at the foot of the stairs if that light switch doesn't impede placement.
