If you have a more spacious entryway, you may want to consider larger furniture such as a sideboard. Decorating a large foyer can be a little easier, you can use larger and more decorative furniture, while in a small one it is better to opt for compact and functional solutions.

The foyer, besides being a cozy space, has to be practical. The furniture you choose should offer storage solutions and meet everyday needs. For example: benches as a seat for putting on shoes, a console table for keys or mail, a sideboard with storage or a coat rack for jackets and hats.
