Foyer Entry Help please!

7 years ago

I have this large wall as you enter the home. I was considering a very narrow lucite waterfall table with 2 narrow paintings above it. I have 11 ft ceilings and the width of this wall is 120 inches from the light switch to the edge of my dining room wall. Any help would be greatly appreciated

I would suggest a small profile console table with two table lamps and a mirror between the lamps. Mirror will open up the narrow foyer ...The other option can be to turn that wall into a gallery wall to feature your art and photo collection...best of luck!

that will help to keep it light - add a walnut side table and lamp where the beer barrel is if you can !

removing the door to kitchen would be easiest & cheapest way to open up & brighten the hall area. Next best, but more costly would be replacing door with one with glass panels. Look for used one in 2nd hand or @ your local Habitat for Humanity store. Keep the one you take off just in case other one gets damaged and needs to be replaced. Replacing only two panels would not achieve much I don't think. A mirror should only be placed where it can reflect something of interest & expand the room. If I recall, the staircase is what would be reflected? A photo collage frame? I think more colour is called for here. Your home, your choice. Bottom line is you decide what is right for your space. As you have likely noticed everyone has a different opinion, professional or not. Most important in re-styling a space is what the home owner wants to use the space for & to be their taste.

Beautiful foyer! I would recommend a narrow table like you mentioned. I'd love to see a big rectangle mirror above placed horizontaly. I see you have a stairwell on the opposite side. Mirror will widen the space and you'll be able to see it from the upper floor. Also your chandeliers will reflect the light in the mirror.

thanks, I never thought of putting a mirror there. Maybe I'll move the mirror from the dining room and actually place the art work on the larger wall in the dining. Any recommendations on the narrow console table? Most are 14 inches.

I also thought of adding some scones on each side if needed
