Entry Way
Contemporary Entrance, Dallas
A dark entry with no light getting to it made it very unwelcoming. By adding glass to the whole wall, it made the space feel larger, and helped carry light in from the adjoining spaces. Metal, sculptural, sconces were also added for additional lighting. The entry console was refinished in a gold metallic automotive paint, and the top was wrapped in a blue and gold leather that matched the office chair in the study. The walls and floor were both lightened up, including the front door, which was once a dark heavy brown. It is hard to see, but the finish on the front door matches that of the console.
