Entryway and Foyer Lighting Ideas

Creating a welcoming entryway is crucial to set a positive tone for the entire interior space. We acknowledge that every entryway, whether a hallway, foyer, entry hall, mudroom, or entrance, is unique. Unfortunately, many people tend to overlook this essential area and focus solely on the living and dining rooms. Yet, considering that the entryway is the first place you see when you return home, it's worth some design attention.

When selecting lighting, it's worth considering the entryway's scale, the home's architecture, and the furniture, artwork, and decor you'd like to highlight. Lighting can be a work of art worth appreciating not only at night but also during the day. If your entryway has a window, carefully position the light to be visible from the outside, showcasing your home's beauty. Furthermore, dimmable or color-changing light features can significantly enhance the mood. Below are some fantastic lighting fixtures that we typically use in our projects. These fixtures push the boundaries of traditional lighting and make a substantial artistic impact, perfectly complementing the rest of our modern design.
