5 Gorgeous Foyer Pieces to Set the Tone of Your Home
Your foyer is important — it’s the first space anyone sees as they enter your home. As such, your foyer provides the first impression of your home and shows off your home's personal style, setting the tone for what's to be expected from the rest of the house. Done well, your foyer can also welcome guests and reveal a lot about your personality and character. Here are a few of my favorite pieces for achieving all of the above to beautiful effect…
1. Gilt Landscape Framed Print
A strong piece of art is always a great way to set the tone of your home. This piece by Thomas O’Toole, displays a misty landscape in moody neutral tones. With hand embellished gold leaf accents and a petite metal frame brushed in gold, this work of art makes that lasting first impression more impactful. I often opt for statement art, positioned on a console table, and leaned against the wall. This is a great way to draw your guest's line of sight directly to where your selected decor pieces are.
2. Kanor Console Table
This beautiful console table is a statement piece. Featuring naturally distressed and reclaimed wood, this piece adds texture and a wow factor to that first impression. A console is also a great way to add decorative touches to your foyer, but can be just as impactful as the individual decor pieces you choose. Grab yours here.
3. Book: Homes For Our Time: Contemporary Houses Around The World
Another great way to throw some personal touches into your foyer is through the use of beautifully designed books. These should be aesthetically aligned with your color scheme and flow easily with your other pieces. Books help to build height or multi-level dimension to your space. They also are great initial conversation starters for your guests. Make it yours here.
4. Olisa Muslin Bench
A bench or ottoman is another great staple piece for your foyer. You want to have a designated seating area for guests to easily put on or take off their shoes. This piece is not only decorative, but functional, and practical in design. Get it here.
5. Maura natural chandelier
Last, but not least, a gorgeous light fixture is a great way to welcome anyone into your home. Lighting can create a warm and inviting atmosphere. Making a light fixture one of the first things that your guests see is a perfect way to make them feel welcome. This fixture should transition well with your other existing decor choices and help to make the space feel warm and cheery. Find yours here.
Final Foyer Design Tips
Just as you would in the rest of your home, you want to incorporate decor that resonates with your overall style. While your foyer provides the first impression of your home, ensure that it seamlessly flows into the nearby rooms surrounding it. Your home should be a soft landing, with soothing aesthetic choices and welcoming vibes.
