Welcome home - an entrance area that makes you feel good

Transform your entrance area into an oasis of well-being

The most important room for the first impression of an apartment or house: the hallway! The entrance area tells your visitor a lot about a person and their living situation. With just one glance, you can see how many people live in the household, whether there are children, whether it's chaotic or whether everything is clinically clean. An inviting entrance area is the first step towards making your guests feel at home. We reveal tips and tricks on how to create a pleasant atmosphere in the very first room of your home.

Shoe cabinets and wardrobes

Hallway furniture is your organization helper! Whether you have a narrow entrance area or a long hallway - with a shoe cabinet or coat rack, you can create important storage space for jackets and shoes. There is often a matching hallway chest of drawers that can also be used as storage space. A shoe bench or wardrobe bench is also perfect if you like to sit down to put on your shoes. Hallway furniture should be well chosen and create a harmonious overall look. With a room full of solid wood furniture, you create a warm atmosphere that can be perfectly accentuated with the right lighting. A clothes rail or coat rack can also be used for the narrow corners to provide more space for jackets if required.

A hallway lamp to set the mood

A lamp in the hallway is the be-all and end-all when you come home. Ideally, it should also be equipped with a sensor so that your path is illuminated as soon as you enter the house. You can also set small accents with the right hallway lamp. For example, a table lamp on a chest of drawers or a low shoe cabinet looks particularly inviting. You can also add an elegant detail with an unusual floor lamp and break up the rigid shapes of the furniture.

The perfect carpet to arrive on

What would an entrance area be without a soft carpet pad if you've lost your slippers again or even prefer to go barefoot? A carpet is the ultimate solution, especially with tiles, so that you don't get cold feet. A rug also cushions your steps on laminate or real wood parquet. Narrow runners look good in front of any shoe cabinet. If you have a square room, a round rug is also a good choice. With a special pattern or a round shape, you can also draw the attention of people in the room to the floor.

An armchair as a small highlight

If your hallway is large enough, we also recommend making a small statement: Place a comfortable armchair in the entrance area. This will not only help you put on your shoes. A sturdy armchair with a stool or a lounge chair is also perfect for a short break in the hallway. If you place a cushion with an unusual pattern on it, the armchair is guaranteed to attract everyone's attention. With a small side table next to it and a matching table lamp, the cozy atmosphere is perfect!
