Tips on How to Improve the Entrance of your Home
Posted on
Don’t forget that the entrance of your home is the first element that communicates to others about our taste, preferences, and personality. This is one of the many reasons why we must give our entrance the same importance as if it is any other room inside the home.
- Entrance Door
One of the first steps that you can take is changing up your entrance door as it’s the first thing guests see when they enter your home. Bright and bold colors are trending. If you opt for a more conservative theme, black and white are always safe bets. However, keep in mind that if you do paint your door white it is more prone to visibly getting dirty. For a contemporary look use washed or matte color - Illumination
Lighting is another fundamental aspect of your home. It is always a good idea to give it a touch of light to each side of your front door. If you have an entrance with a garage you can also incorporate a lamp. However, if you have an entrance garden you can light it as well giving your home an elegant look. If you’re illuminating your entrance garden make sure to use trees to hide the lights brightening the way. - Windows
You can also paint your windows to match the color of your entrance door. Keep in mind that your windows’ glasses must always be squeaky clean as dirty windows give off a wrong impression. It’s important to clean your windows regularly. - Wood and Stone
Wood and stone can give your home a modern look. A wall covered with stone, against a contrasting color with the exterior walls, can give the entrance of your home a different design. You will have a new texture that will create a completely different surface on your home’s exterior. You can also use wood to replace deteriorating bricks. Wood will give your home more ventilation and a new look as well.
