An entryway is the first place anyone sees when entering a house. It is the very sight that welcomes you, when you come home. It’s what visitors see when they step into your house. People tend to judge a home by its entry hall, so a well-furnished foyer is a good chance to make the right first impression upon them.
An entry room could be small or pretty spacious, and it determines the number and the size of furniture pieces you can place there. Whether it’s a grand foyer in a large mansion or just a nook by the door in a tiny apartment, it deserves to be well-furnished. Bellavista Collection offers Italian luxury furniture, along with boiserie and decorative items that can make your entry hall look really chic.
Well, what can come in handy when creating an ensemble for an entry room?
Let’s start with such a useful thing as wall paneling. Along with looking grand, custom-made boiserie from Bellavista brand will conceal not only wires, but also wardrobe doors, making the overall design of your entryway sleeker. In Bellavista’s online product catalog, there is a category called BOISERIE, where you’ll find elegant and durable designer wall panels, made of natural materials.
Console tables and mirrors are the items you often see in an entryway of any size. No wonder: it’s quite natural to look in the mirror before leaving home, and a console table is a good place to put little things like makeup or a hairbrush.
A cherry-picked selection of mirrors is waiting for you in HOME DÉCOR product category, which contains two sub-categories, namely, MIRRORS and BELLAVISTA DETAILS.
Looking-glasses from Bellavista are all beautiful yet extremely diverse. You are welcome to choose among relatively small and large, wall-mounted and floor-standing ones, not to mention a variety of materials and finishes of their frames.
An oval wall-mounted mirror named VANITY will be a great pick for an entry room. This beveled mirror is offered in two size options. The first is 122 centimeters (48 inches) high and 42 cm. (16.5 in.) wide, and the second one is 183 cm. (71.3) high and 63 cm. (24.8 in.) wide.
VANITY’s thin metal frame is available in three finishes: ‘antique silver’, ‘antique bronze’, and ‘antique brass’.
Or do you prefer other shapes? Take a look at round MARTA, square AIDA and VASCO, or rectangular MARRIOTT, to name a few. By the way, some of the mirrors are offered in more than one shape. For example, PASCAL – a chic-looking mirror, whose elegant frame with studs is a real eye-catcher – comes in three frame options, one of which is square and two are rectangular.
A console table named ELIZABETH will go extremely well with VANITY mirror. The base of this table is made of hammered cast brass with antique bronze finish, refined by hand. The tabletop, made of solid wood (Italian poplar), can be veneered with a number of woods or padded in saddle-leather. Veneering options include such attractive species as dark eucalyptus friseè, natural sycamore, ebony and grey sukupira. For the two latter ones, a glossy finish is available as an option.
As to the leather, there are six colors for you to choose from: red, three shades of brown (Bellavista’s craftsmen call them ‘Caramello’, ‘Fango’ and ‘Caffè’), beige (‘Sand’), and Black (‘Testa di Moro’). The leather covering is decorated with matching stitches.
What is more, ELIZABETH is offered in two sizes: 140 cm (55.1 inches) and 180 cm (70.9 inches) wide. It will come in handy when furnishing a space where every square inch matters. Other dimensions of the table are the same: both variants are 84 cm (33.1) inches high and 40 cm (15.7) inches deep.
Now that you have chosen a console table, what about placing a table lamp onto it? DALIA from the latest collection looks gorgeous and will easily blend into the ensemble. The design of this exquisite lamp perfectly illustrates the general idea of the 2020-2021 collection, namely, celebrating the beauty of Nature.
DALIA’s cast bronze structure reminds of petals of a flower, turned upside down, or maybe of aerial roots some tropical plants have. Such a shape turns this lamp into a real attention-grabber. Any of the two grand-looking finishes, applied by hand – antique bronze finish and black patina – make it look elegant indeed.
DALIA is middle-sized: just 53.5 centimeters (21.1inches) high, with a linen lampshade 30 cm. (11.8 in.) in diameter.
If you have a bit more room to spare in your entryway, you may want to have some decorative pieces there, such as a lovely cast brass statuette Bellavista Collection is well-known for. Put the sculpture onto the console table, or, even better – onto ARTE 1, a pedestal, made of Emperador Dark Brown or Striato Grey marble, with the base made of cast brass with antique bronze finish. ARTE is quite compact, so it will go with any of Bellavista’s statuettes really well. ARTE 1 is 90 cm (34,2 in.) high, 34 cm. (13.4 in.) wide, and 24 cm (9.4 in.) deep.
If your foyer is spacious enough, what about placing a sofa and a table there? OLIVER table and ZIA MARIA sofa will be a great choice for a large entry room.
ZIA MARIA’s design seems somehow feminine, so stylish it looks. By the way, ‘Zia’ means ‘auntie’ in Italian. The wooden base of ZIA MARIA is made of dark-colored moka stained beechwood, which perfectly harmonizes with either leather or fabric upholstery. Besides, ZIA MARIA is available in two sizes, that differ in width – 220 or 260 centimeters (86.6 and 102.4 inches respectively.)
The cast metal detail on the top of OLIVER table bears a resemblance to flower petals. In addition to its practical function – fixing the Lazy Susan, this flower-like part serves as a decorative element. It makes this table a great example of beautility, i.e., combination of beauty with utilitarian value. In fact, quite the same could be said about almost every item designed in Bellavista.
