how do i design the entry/reception to the home?
hi folks,
i have a weird entry structure, it’s 442cm by 332cm. There’s also two windows on each side. Behind the camera is again a large floor to ceiling window on either side with a large french door with gridded glass on top and wood on bottom, this is the view once you open that door.
Because of the windows i’m having difficulty figuring out how to use it. I tried just putting down four chairs or two chairs and a bench but it looked like a waiting room. I tried removing all seating and making it sort of a storage and gallery but it looks like everyone will complain about wasting the space🥲. I am trying to make it a foyer now with console on one end and a day bed on the other now to not make it look like a waiting room.
I’m going for a parisian classic contemporary take, mostly want to try to use this area to sit and watch the rain or as an early stop for visitors we don’t want to bring further into the home.
any thoughts on what i should try? it’s the first interior space people see so i dont want to make it look cheap.
ty!
