a big light fixture centered over the doorway. large format art up the stairs and a long console with a mirror, lamp below the rail

Any pictures would be great so I can visualize it? Thanks so much

Your question is pretty vague.

First thing I would do is paint the walls a very light color. Then I like the suggestion given above for a large, bright light fixture.

Maybe it’s because of the lack of lighting, but in these pictures the surfaces of the floor and the stairs don’t look the same. Are they?

I’d get a much larger soft rug to nearly fill the space between the bottom stair and the double doors.

Yes they’re white color - the stairs and floor are same color - prolly the lighting in the photos is different. Wanted to know what I can do on the wall above the stairs.

Also how to Desgin the hallway?

I think molding would be stunning there.

I would have large wall sconces installed on that big staircase wall…would be gorgeous. adding a large oversized piece off wall art or big floor mirror at the entrance..long lower staircase wall..add a long slender console…than accessories after those decisions are in place.

I was thinking of a loveseat on that wall under the stairs not a console table.

A tall potted tree like palm or ficus tucked behind the newel post there will be the focal point-- plus screen the upstairs upon entering from the front door.

Add an area rug for the loveseat. Place a side table with a table lamp between the plant and loveseat.

I like the gallery wall on the landing but only at normal wall height level as shown....not going up the stairs.

The concept is to draw the eye down to living level so the staircase is incidental in a way. Like maybe get a larger striking doormat...that sort of thing.

You could look at doing a console table with mirror or art by the door or near the bottom of the staircase. Then you could update the chandelier in the staircase. You could look at doing wainscotting on the walls, add sconces, a gallery wall, etc. Please take a moment to look through some ideas we've put together for you.
