Help with long entry way
6 years ago
I moved into a brand new house a few months ago. I don’t really care for it at this point, but that’s a whole other topic. One of the things I’ve grown to despise is this long entry way. It’s 27 feet long from front door to living room. Anyway, I need help with what to do to make this look decent. I’m thinking about a large floating shelf on the long wall by front door but that’s all I’ve got. I’m open to suggestions but need to be on the affordable side - this is not a forever home, I give it 2 or 3 years.
Also - suggestions to replace the three apartment-grade light fixtures the builder installed? Ceiling is 9-foot.
