The entrance to your house is your home’s equivalent of a handshake: it’s the first impression that gives visitors an idea of your personality, priorities, and lifestyle. However, as a foyer or entryway isn’t often a space where you spend many of your waking hours, it’s easy to let your entrance fall into mediocrity. Take the opportunity to reassess the message that you’re sending to your guests when they walk in the front door (unorganized? bland?), and use these examples from homify's interior designers to see how you can upgrade your entrance to make a positive statement about both your home’s atmosphere and your personal sense of style.

1. ​Minimalist

DOM W MAGADALENCE, INSPACE INSPACE オリジナルスタイルの 玄関&廊下&階段

For those who love to have everything put away neatly in its place, a clean and simple foyer like this one provides a fresh and inviting space with plenty of room for conversation.

2. ​Sophisticated

A palette of brilliant white and silvery grey makes for a stunning and sophisticated entrance, well equipped with closets, bench, coat hooks, and mirror to provide a seamless entry and exit.

3. ​Well-travelled

A collection of cultural and artistic artifacts will serve as an instant conversation starter when you place your interesting souvenirs and treasures on display.

4. ​High energy

The polish, pop, and shine in this entryway communicate a dynamic personality and high-energy disposition, using a striking mixture of geometric patterns and shapes to create interest.

5. ​Traditional

6. ​Elegant

This artistic, spacious entrance enjoys ample space, leading visitors through a bold blue door and past a series of stylish features, from the illuminated ceiling to the zig-zag tilework to a collection of polished furniture and decor.

7. ​Artistic

Upcycling an old vanity or dresser can allow you to create an artistic entrance that shows off your crafty side.

​8. Majestic

This foyer is nothing short of regal, with an ornate framed mirror, plush velvet cushion, and elaborate molding that runs along the walls of the room.

9. ​Down-to-Earth

Set a natural and honest tone with the addition of organic materials. As this entrance demonstrates, the simple combination of wood and white walls can go a long way!

​10. Adventurous

Rarely find yourself at home? If you spend more time on the trails, slopes, or waves than you do inside, an entrance like this will harmonize with your adventurous, on-the-go lifestyle.

11. ​Welcoming

This eco-inspired wall mural and picture gallery sends an open and communicative message to guests, revealing a bit about your personal story as they walk through the entrance hallway.

12. ​Open

Many urban apartments and lofts don’t have a proper foyer – if this is the case for you, an open entrance like this one can be just as striking. As guests enter through the open room, they are invited to take off shoes and coats with the addition of a bench that acts as a gesture of hospitality.
