Entry Way Ideas for 2025

Entry ways are often tricky to decorate because of a lack of space. We are recapping the top 10 ideas for 2025 on how to style your entryway or mudroom

Add a Statement Mirror

tA large mirror opens up the space and adds a functional touch for last-minute outfit checks. Round, arched, or oversized mirrors work well depending on your style.

Three Entryway Mirror Ideas with benches and console tables.

Natural Wood-Framed Mirror

This tall, rectangular mirror features a warm wood frame, bringing an organic and timeless touch to the space. Styled against a light-colored wall, it reflects natural light and enhances the airy feel of the room. A woven stool, a neutral armchair, and soft textures complete the inviting and relaxed look.

To recreate this look, choose a full-length wood-framed mirror with a natural or slightly distressed finish. Pair it with a light, neutral-toned wall to highlight its warmth. Add a textured ottoman or woven stool for depth. Keep the palette soft and neutral, using white or beige furniture with organic materials like linen or rattan.

Black Metal Sunburst Mirror

A bold, round mirror with a black metal sunburst frame makes a striking statement above a console table. The frame’s spiked details create a sculptural look, adding contrast against the light wall and enhancing the modern elegance of the space. A simple vase with greenery keeps the styling minimal yet balanced.

To recreate this look, select a round, black metal sunburst mirror for an eye-catching focal point. Mount it above a console table with clean lines for a sleek, modern touch. Keep the color palette neutral and monochrome, allowing the mirror’s design to stand out. Add a textured vase with greenery for a fresh, understated accent.

Gold-Framed Curved Mirror

This mirror features a curved silhouette with a thin gold frame, blending classic and modern elements. Positioned above a dark-toned console table, it contrasts beautifully with the black furniture and soft neutral wall. The setup includes a sculptural white table lamp, a coffee table tray, and an abstract ceramic sculpture.

To recreate this look, use a gold-framed mirror with an elegant curved design to add warmth and refinement. Position it above a dark wood or black console table for contrast. Incorporate sculptural decor, like a stacked orb lamp or abstract ceramics. Add a white coffee table tray to introduce a neutral object that can organize various other household items rather than leaving them scattered across the surface..

Use a Stylish Console Table

A slim console table provides a landing spot for keys, mail, and small decor. Choose wood for warmth, marble for elegance, or metal for a sleek modern look.

Three console ideas for an entry way.

Sleek Coastal Console Table

This entryway features a minimalist metal console table with a sleek silver finish, paired with a serene ocean-inspired painting. The soft gray walls and subtle textures create a calming, modern coastal look. A light-toned rug grounds the space, while the lack of clutter keeps it feeling airy and effortless.

To recreate this look, choose a slim metal console table with a polished or brushed finish. Hang a coastal or abstract painting in soft blues, grays, or neutrals to add depth. Keep decor minimal—try a single vase, a sculptural piece, or a modern accent table nearby. Stick to a muted, neutral color palette to maintain a fresh and serene feel.

Organic Modern Console with Round Mirror

This space balances organic textures with modern styling, featuring a sculptural wood console with an open, branch-like design. A large round rattan-framed mirror brings warmth and texture, while a mix of decor—books, a lamp, and sculptural accents—adds layers of interest. The result is a refined yet natural aesthetic.

To achieve this look, use a statement console table with an open, artistic base. Hang a round rattan or wood-framed mirror above it for contrast. Layer with coastal-inspired decor, like a glass lamp, coral sculptures, or stacked books. Keep the color scheme warm and neutral to highlight the natural materials.

Minimalist Coastal Console with Neutral Art

This entryway embraces simplicity with a clean-lined wood console in a natural tone. A large abstract white-on-white artwork keeps the space feeling modern and airy. Sculptural decor, like a spiked orb and a white shell bowl, adds just the right amount of texture and interest.

To recreate this look, start with a light wood console table with straight, simple lines. Hang neutral abstract artwork with textured or layered elements. Add a few sculptural decor pieces, like ceramic or glass objects, to create contrast. Keep everything in a soft, neutral palette to maintain a minimalist yet inviting feel.

Incorporate a Bench or Stool

A bench or entryway stool offers both seating and style. Add a cushion or throw for comfort, and use baskets underneath for hidden storage.

Three stool and bench ideas for an entry way with carpet and art.

Reclaimed Wood Bench with Cozy Layers

This entryway features a narrow rustic wood bench with a rustic A-frame design, paired with a soft, high-pile rug for warmth and texture. The combination of natural wood grain and plush textiles creates a welcoming, lived-in feel. Against a clean white wall, this look is simple, cozy, and effortlessly stylish.

To recreate this look, choose a raw wood bench with a sturdy, minimal silhouette. Layer it over a textured rug for contrast and warmth. Keep the styling subtle—think a woven basket, a neutral-toned cushion, or a small ceramic accent.

Minimalist Wood Bench with Statement Artwork

This modern entryway pairs a raw-edge wood bench with bold, abstract artwork for a striking balance of natural and contemporary elements. The sleek lines of the bench allow the colorful painting to stand out, while the polished concrete flooring adds to the clean, minimalist aesthetic. The result is a refined yet inviting space that feels both curated and effortless.

To get this look, start with a simple, well-crafted wood bench. Hang a large, expressive artwork above it to add personality and depth. Keep surrounding decor minimal—maybe a small sculptural piece or a folded throw—to maintain the clean, uncluttered feel.

Sculptural Wood Stool with Organic Form

This uniquely curved wood stool doubles as both a functional seat and a sculptural statement piece. The handcrafted design, with its flowing lines and open base, brings warmth and artistry to any space. Whether styled as an accent or used as extra seating, this stool blends seamlessly with modern, coastal, and organic interiors.

To recreate this look, choose a sculptural wood stool that emphasizes craftsmanship and natural materials. Let it stand alone or pair it with other organic textures like woven baskets or ceramic vases. Keep the color palette neutral to highlight the beauty of the wood’s natural grain.


Layer with a Textured Rug

A well-placed rug defines the entryway and adds warmth underfoot. Choose natural fibers like jute for a casual look or a vintage-style runner for character.

Rug Entry Way Ideas with  3 looks in brown, beige, and white.

Natural Jute Rug with Rustic Accents

This space features a warm, natural jute rug that brings an organic, earthy feel to the room. Paired with weathered wood tables, linen upholstery, and muted pastel accents, the look is effortlessly relaxed and inviting. The rich, woven texture of the rug adds depth, making it a great foundation for a cozy and casual space.

Soft Wool-Blend Rug with Subtle Texture

A plush, wool-blend rug with soft neutral tones sets the tone for this cozy yet refined living space. The subtle ribbed texture adds interest without overwhelming, while the muted beige and gray palette keeps things calm and understated. Styled with a mix of light wood furniture and soft textiles, this look is all about warmth and comfort.

Chunky Handwoven Rug with Cozy Appeal

This thick, handwoven rug brings a modern, organic touch with its chunky knit texture and soft ivory tones. The high-contrast weave adds visual dimension, making it a stylish and functional choice for high-traffic areas. Perfect for layering in minimalist, coastal, or contemporary interiors, this rug adds warmth while keeping the look fresh and natural.

Style with Baskets for Storage

Woven baskets keep shoes, scarves, and everyday essentials organized. Opt for neutral tones for a seamless look or patterned baskets for added personality.

Hang Wall Hooks or a Coat Rack

Wall-mounted hooks or a freestanding coat rack keep outerwear and bags tidy. Choose brass or black metal hooks for a modern look or wood pegs for a rustic touch.

Add Greenery with Plants

Plants breathe life into your entryway and make it feel inviting. A tall fiddle-leaf fig or a smaller potted plant on the console adds a natural element.

Use Artwork or a Gallery Wall

Frame artwork or create a gallery wall with prints and personal photos. Mix different frame styles and sizes for a curated look.

Light It Up with a Statement Fixture

Swap out basic lighting for a pendant, chandelier, or stylish wall sconces. A well-placed light fixture sets the tone and makes the space feel intentional.

Keep It Minimal and Functional

A clutter-free entryway feels fresh and inviting. Stick to a few well-chosen pieces that balance style and practicality.
