The entrance is a separate room much like your living room or your bedroom. This can sometimes turn out to be quite small or, on the contrary, huge. However, this transitional space is not always easy to remodel with decorative storage. Based on your taste and preferences, you can either create a purely functional space or enjoy creating a truly original decoration with colors, patterns and several other elegant pieces of furniture.
{1} Install practical storage compartments
If you do not have the opportunity for a wardrobe, coat hooks are an attractive alternative ideal for hanging your bags and coats. Here, Muuto The Dots draw hooks together form a beautiful graphic installation; worthy of a scandinavian apartment. What's more? You can find them in different surfaces and colors!
When it comes to furniture, we can consider integrating a closet, some storage pockets (very suitable for getting rid of keys and other papers), and how about a small armchair for an extra touch of comfort, if space allows.

{2} Enter the various sections
Why not enjoy creating a real set? We could play on different materials for the floor: here the carpet with cement tiles gives the decoration a special charm. Make it a more architectural structure where the wall frame and the extra height are two very beautiful ideas that can be brought to life, for example, during renovations.
If not, a strip of wallpaper or even a painted frame with a different color would also be perfect!

{3} We can invest in custom storage spaces
Say goodbye to common beliefs: There are many solutions at affordable and reasonable prices, available in the market and ready to optimize your compartment, such as Centimeters, for example 100% made in France. The advantage of customized products is that it makes it possible to use every corner. Shallow depth but full height Cabinets are more preferred for entrances. Together with doors, boxes and not to mention an ornamental niche: everything goes!
Should you have larger rooms, you can create a really custom dressing room with all integrated storage spaces: a side cupboard for coats, shelves for bags and shoes, and why not a little room reserved for the "daily hotchpotch" (for the vacuum cleaner) and cameras for example!) .
A good idea: We can consider integrating some hidden electrical outlets designed with aesthetics to charge these devices!

{4} Don't forget the decorations!
Although your entrance may be quite small, it must still be a welcoming and appealing place. And for this to come true, some colorful decorative accessories are really important!
A mirror, a small console table where you can place a pot plant, a table lamp and some other attractive items: all this will make your room warm and welcoming, and will entice your visitors to enjoy seeing the rest of your apartment or house!
