New house - entry way ideas?

8 years ago

I’ve never had a proper entry way/foyer before and could use some advice. Below are a few photos from different angles. Formal living room and dining rooms are the two rooms to left/right when you come in through the front door.


Questions:


1. Should I get a long runner/runners to go horizontal at the start of the stairs (where i have the small rug now) and then down the hallway which leads to the kitchen? The hallway and front door aren’t centered.


2. Ideas for the nook next to the stairs? Some type of tall console/shelf and a tall plant maybe? Or a bench?


3. I was thinking of putting a large horizontal framed mirror on the wall leading to the kitchen - prior owners had a 6’ long one and it looked nice. Good idea or reconsider?


Thanks in advance for any advice!
