The modern entryway: consoles, mirrors, and materials that set the mood of the home
The entryway introduces the home with quiet confidence. It is a functional yet inviting space, where materials, forms, and proportions come together in a composed, intentional balance. Every detail contributes to an atmosphere that feels restrained, thoughtful, and naturally welcoming.
More than a transitional area, the entryway establishes the home’s atmosphere from the outset. It is a space shaped by everyday actions—placing objects, hanging coats, catching a final glance in the mirror. In contemporary interiors, the entryway is designed with restraint and intention, becoming a functional yet composed environment that feels natural to inhabit.
The Metrica console by Mogg brings a sense of visual rigor to the space. Metal rods and glass shelves form a linear structure that allows light to flow freely. Books and objects become part of the composition, completing a design defined by restraint and material consistency.
The Folia mirror by Ferm Living introduces an organic, refined presence. Its irregular, leaf-inspired silhouette and FSC™ Mix–certified poplar burl create a warm, dynamic surface—discreet yet expressive, expanding the space with a sense of natural continuity.
With New Order by HAY, designed by Stefan Diez, the entryway is interpreted through modular precision. Anodized aluminum structures allow for flexible configurations, ideal for organizing and storing. The result is a space that feels orderly and functional, expressed through a clean, contemporary language.
Aero V by Living Divani, designed by Shibuleru, is defined by a slim profile and carefully measured proportions. Its essential structure integrates seamlessly into transitional areas, adding a note of order and visual lightness. A versatile, precise piece that remains consistently understated.
The Bernard armchair by HAY balances solidity with comfort. A solid wood frame pairs with fabric or leather upholstery, creating a seat that feels both composed and inviting. Placed near the entryway, it adds warmth and functionality through a clear, contemporary design language.
The Romeo storage unit by Meridiani introduces continuous forms and lacquered surfaces. Soft curves and finishes—glossy or matte—create an elegant visual rhythm. Designed to store and define space with discretion, it furnishes without overpowering.
With Selvans by Ligne Roset, designed by Christian Werner, natural material takes center stage. The fluted Canaletto walnut enhances depth and texture, while compact proportions make it well suited to refined entryways. A piece that combines precision with warmth.
Since their introduction in 1967, Kartell’s Componibili have preserved a clear, essential design language. Compact, practical, and versatile, they integrate effortlessly into any setting. New glossy and matte finishes reaffirm their relevance, bringing simplicity and function into the present.
Finally, the Spindle bench by Ethnicraft, crafted from solid oak, adds an authentic, light presence. Slender lines and a spindle backrest define its understated elegance, making it an ideal complement for an entryway that seeks warmth and natural balance.
A modern entryway balances function and restraint, shaping a space that feels composed from the very first step inside.
