You're so lucky you have an entryway! My house opens right onto the coat closet, so there's no space for anything fun like this. I am loving this bench these days, but there are so many out there in black, which I think would look nice for you. Are you thinking a place to put on shoes, etc? Functional or more decorative? I would check out overstock and wayfair. I like the Shelby Simple Living one.

Bench should be 25% wider than the tchotke on the wall. Leave one wall bare so the eye can rest in this small space. It is getting too busy, so I'd remove the floor mirror.

I would move stand to another spot and I agree mirror is too much. Accent with pillows of any color you want.

Be careful that you don't get anything too "garden-like". Your console and it's décor is lovely and is not very casual. Keep your bench in the same style.

I like something with a bit more substance, like this.

Wonderful space. The coat tree IMO isn't a plus in the room.

The fabric on the bench should be a dark grey charcoal.

Nice selection of items for the foyer. I have lowered your art, eliminated the WELCOME and decreased the size of one of the silver objects.

Thanks, BeverlyFLADeziner! I really like the dark grey bench with the raised sides.

Julie, I admit I stretched it to get the length, but it shouldn't be too hard to find one like this in the right color for the room. You could even consider a small settee.

Here is one in gray if you like it better, You need to measure wall to make sure you get correct size This is 55" The one from Pier 1 is 48"
