The entrance is a separate room very much like your living room or your bedroom. This could at times turn out to be quite small or rather the opposite, immense. This space of transition is however not always easy to redesign with decorating storage. Based on your tastes and your wishes, you can either create a purely functional place or enjoy setting up a truly original decoration with colours, patterns and several other pieces of stylish furniture.
{ 1 } Install Practical Storage Spaces
If you don’t have the option of a closet, coat hooks are an attractive alternative ideal for hanging your bags and coats. Here, the Muuto The Dots coats hooks together form a beautiful graphical setup; worthy of a Scandinavian apartment.What’s more? You can find them in a variety of finishes and colours!
As for the furniture, we could consider integrating a shoe cupboard, some storage pockets (very suitable to get rid of keys and other papers), and how about a small armchair for an extra touch of comfort, if space permits.

{ 2 } Outline The Different Sections
Why not enjoy creating a real set? We could play on different materials for the floor: here, the carpet with cement tiles adds a particular charm to the decoration. Renders it a more architectural texture where the wall frame and the extra height are two very beautiful ideas to be brought into life during renovations for example.
If not, a strip of wallpaper or even a painted frame with a different colour would also be perfect!

{ 3 } We Can Invest In Customized Storage Spaces
Say goodbye to common beliefs: There are plenty of solutions at affordable and reasonable rates, available in the market standing ready to optimize your compartment, like Centimeter, for example, 100% made in France. The advantage in customized products is that it renders the possibility of making use of every corner. Shallow depth but full height Cabinets are more preferred for entrances. Together with doors, drawers and not to mention an ornamental niche: anything goes!
Should you have larger rooms, you could create a real customized dressing room with all the integrated storage spaces: a side closet for coats, shelves for bags and shoes, and why not some room reserved for the “daily hotchpotch” (for the vacuum cleaner and cameras for instance!).
A Great Idea: we could consider integrating a few hidden power sockets designed with aestheticism so as to recharge these devices!

{ 4 } Don’t Forget The Decorations!
Even if your entrance is perhaps rather small, it must still be a welcoming, heartening place. And for this to come true, a few colourful decorative accessories is certainly an essential!
A mirror, a small console table where you could place a houseplant, a table lamp and some other attractive objects: all this will make your room warm and welcoming, and will tempt your visitors to enjoy seeing the rest of your apartment or house!
