Foyer Lighting Ideas & Entryway Lighting

Entryway Lighting Ideas

The entryway. It’s the place you greet guests and say farewell. A spot to place mail and take a final look before heading out. Dress it up and make it functional.

Entryway Spaces

The entryway plays a significant role in your everyday living, and so does the lighting. Want to make a big impact? Consider a large pendant or chandelier. Dealing with a smaller space? Consider sconces at the sides of a mirror to add depth. Mudroom area? Add ceiling lights and sconces to help add functional light to the room.

Small Space Tips

Don’t let square footage be the boss – let lighting be the solution. From an entryway or a half bath to a studio apartment, the right lighting can make all the difference. Think of it this way: size doesn’t dictate style, it simply gives you a set of parameters.

Brilliantly Light Your Art

Have a piece of art or a mirror that you would like to feature in your entryway? Place sconces on each side to frame the area and add illumination to the space. Mirrors add depth to a space and allow for a quick final check before heading out for the day.

A Welcoming First Impression

With your front porch or doorway area, you have a chance to welcome guests to your home before they even set foot in the door. Porch lights or wall lights work best when placed above shoulder height to keep direct light out of your eyes.
