Enormous Makeover for a Design Studio's Foyer

A foyer is one of the main rooms in a house — it provides guests their first and last impression of their space. In offices, this is even more significant. Elizabeth Reich and Elizabeth Cb Marsh (yes, that is how she spells it), connect interior designers at Jenkins Baer Associates, wanted to be sure their workplace foyer allowed visiting clients to picture exactly the same sort of imagination in their own houses. Using bits taken out of their workplace archives, they blended their two styles into a playful but sophisticated space that helps clients feel at home.

Get some tips from such designers to make your house or workplace foyer a glistening and comfortable space.

Showcasing artwork was a priority in this foyer, and both Marsh and Reich adored the notion of creating a gallery-like display on the present charcoal grey wall. The designers made this vignette organically, just combining their two design styles — putting in one piece, then another — without a set strategy in mind. This casual strategy resulted in a place that has a little something to appeal to any client’s taste.

Tip: A gallery wall can help add life to a boring hallway, along with the design possibilities are endless. If you enjoy the look of mismatched bits but need a little uniformity, consider framing all your unrelated bits in matching frames.

Comfortable armchairs in among those foyer corners make a comfy seating space for waiting clients.

The pair had the challenge of pulling from inventory at Jenkins Baer, which Reich admits stifled creativity a little. But by focusing on comfort and combining their fashions, the twosome pulled off a chic and appealing space that still has a homey feel.

Tip: Books add personality to a room. When these books provide reading material for waiting clients, you can also set books under lamps to make a light source that is just the right height to the table.

One of the chief objectives for this space was supposed to allow clients to envision the job of the designers in their own houses, therefore it was essential to make it feel like a residential setting.

Working with a higher table like this could be unexpected in between a pair of low seats, but the design works well in a foyer. The height of this table makes it to be eye catching to people on foot, but it still feels comfortable for visitors sitting at the seats.

Tip: Neutral ottomans are flexible but may occasionally seem bland. Employing a tray breaks up the block of colour and produces a useful spot for keeping essentials, like the TV remote, and setting beverages.

Although all these pieces came from the design company’s archives, Reich and Marsh organized them in a new and unexpected way — proof that you don’t necessarily have to eliminate your furniture to find a new look.

“It is amazing how even designers think something we have is’new’ when they see it displayed in a fresh and new way,” says Reich.

Tip: Adding extra chairs into a room can be complicated. Little ottomans in an exciting form or pattern, such as these wooden bits, can add interest. Utilize their flexibility to fill dead space beneath tables and keep them near a chair for extra seating or propping up feet.
