Your entryway serves as the first impression of your home. But, transitional spaces like hallways and or mudrooms can often become overlooked. If your transitional spaces have become dull and drab, it’s time to breathe new life into them! At Montague Design we love to explore creative and practical ways to refresh these areas, making them not only functional – but stylish. 

Choose a Vibrant Color Palette: Easily infuse energy into your entryway by selecting a fresh and vibrant color palette. Consider light and airy tones to make the space feel more open and inviting. Or an accent color for a pop of personality. Don’t be afraid to experiment with bold choices; a colorful accent wall or a bright door can make a significant first impression.

Upgrade Lighting Fixtures: Good lighting can transform the ambiance of any space. Replace outdated lighting fixtures with modern alternatives that match your desired aesthetic. Pendant lights, wall sconces, or even a stylish chandelier can add a touch of glamour to your hallway or mudroom. 

Add Statement Wall Art: Introduce character to your space by incorporating statement wall art. Consider a gallery wall with a mix of framed photos, artwork, and mirrors. Mirrors can also enhance the perception of space, making smaller areas appear larger and more open. Choose pieces that resonate with your personal style and complement the overall theme of your home.

Upgrade Flooring: If your hallway and mudroom have seen better days, consider upgrading the flooring. Opt for durable and easy-to-clean materials like tiles, laminate, or hardwood. A stylish rug or runner can add warmth and texture while protecting the floor from dirt and debris. 

Create a Focal Point: Every well-designed space benefits from a focal point. It could be a piece of furniture, an accent wall, or even a decorative piece that draws the eye. Consider incorporating a stylish console, a captivating piece of art, or a decorative mirror as the focal point in your hallway or mudroom.
