The Entrance and the Console

This week's blog post is focused on an important part of anyone's home considering it is the first interior you see; the Entrance.
Jazzing up an Entrance or Hallway can make a significant difference to the overall feel and vibe of your home and requires fewer decorating steps than almost any other room!

 A quick way to make an Entrance or Hallway feel more inviting is with the addition of a Console. The brilliance of the Console is that you can alternate it for a desk, cabinet or thin coffee table and still achieve the same desired effect.

Our Curved Leg Console is a simple way to bring understated elegance and style to your home! Featuring curved legs contrasted with a flat top, this modern piece is perfect for an Entrance or Hallway with limited space.

If mirrored furniture is more your style, we have a large range of mirrored consoles to fit every individual style. For example, our Deco Mirrored Cabinet (above) is the perfect statement piece to draw attention to your Entrance or Hallway. Featuring two spacious cupboards and sleek black legs, our Deco Mirrored Cabinet will bring an elegant touch of Art Deco to your home!

Add some personality by arranging your own photographs, lamps, coffee table books, decorator pieces, plants and collectables on the bench of the Console.

Our Nixon Clock (Large) looks spectacular on any console or mantlepiece and is a truly eye-catching piece.

Also comes in medium.

For a bit of fun and quirkiness, our Chess Set (Large) would look incredible as a statement piece on a console in your Entrance or Hallway, particularly if you are indeed a player (if not, what better way to learn than with over-sized pieces?). Featuring a contrast of black and nickel, this Chess Set (Large) is refined and elegant and would look brilliant with other monochromatic or mirrored pieces.

Another way to add a touch of individuality and your personality to your Entrance or Hallway is with a piece of artwork or a large printed photograph. If you're an artist or photographer (or know someone who is) then you could always reproduce your own work to hang, otherwise it is best to choose a piece that reflects you and the way in which you want your home to feel.

Imagery of trees immediately provides an air of relaxation and ease to your home while also making visitors feel welcome. If you live in the city or suburbs, our Tree Carved Mangowood Artwork (Black) will bring a connection with nature to your home, and if you live in the country it will reflect your lush surroundings.

If you don't want to hang a piece of art or a photograph, another great idea is to hang a statement mirror above your console.

Here are just a few of our incredible statement mirrors:

Adding a hat-rack to your Entrance or Hallway makes your home feel more warm and inviting for visitors while also making for a great place for you to store your clothing necessities for each season (we're thinking hats, scarves, beanies, etc.)

A unique and rustic piece, our Woody Hat Stand will certainly be a talking point when visitors come over!
