Your entryway is the first impression of your home—and one of the most overlooked opportunities for great design. It's the space that welcomes guests, sets the tone for what's to come, and greets you at the end of a long day.

Entryways are one of our favorite places to introduce personality and create a memorable moment. While we tend to put more importance into living rooms and kitchens, entryways are not to be overshadowed!

The Swanson Project gave us a clean slate to add some personality into. We added art, a console good for dropping their items, and some fabulous little stools that tucked perfectly to the side.

Whether it's a vintage bench, a striking piece of artwork, an oversized mirror, or a thoughtfully designed storage solution, this small space can make a big impact.

Above and below are some entry inspiration worthy of sharing. Both beautiful and functional - storage keeps everyday essentials organized, while layered lighting, collected objects, and meaningful art in. Bringing in this warmth and character is an opportunity to tell a story from the moment people enter.

Statement furnishings or bold wallpaper or sculptural hooks or a curated gallery wall could be just the move. Don't be afraid to have a little fun here! Below, we added sculptural art alongside a dreamy chandelier to fill the walls of the Cedar Lane Project.
