Flickr Find: Entry Hall

Entry Hall, originally uploaded by Red Jet Whistle.

This photo got me thinking about landing spaces. You know: a space for your stuff when you walk in the house, where you drop off everything you’ve been carrying with you and start the activity of just… being at home.

I’ve lived in places that didn’t have space for a landing area — only a small amount of room in front of the front door — really the living space opened up right into the hallway. But now that I have a functional foyer, I feel like that minute to decompress makes a difference. And I can always find my keys.

What about you? Hallway? Vestibule? Or are you, like so many others, cursed with a front door that opens up into your couch?
