Proper Interior Decoration For Drawing-room & Entrance

Proper planning and decorating is essential for a house. It goes without saying that the drawing-room and the entrance of our house should be well designed to create a good ambiance.

The house must have a properly planned out entrance which guests and visitors can find without wasting time looking for it. The entrance of a house should be done up tastefully in an innovative manner to make it pretty and eye catching. Try and be really innovative while designing the doors of the house. They can be adorned with some embellishments or intricate carvings. It immediately gives a very positive vibe to the guest entering the house.k

An ideal way of attracting the visitor's attention would be by hanging a doorbell or cowbell on the door. A handset right outside the door would be a practical idea. You can be informed of a person's reason of coming to your house when they call you standing right outside your door. Then you can decide to entertain them or not at your own discretion. This acts as a precautionary method as they help in keeping unwanted elements at bay and any unwanted visitors can be avoided.

Many homemakers feel that an entrance is pivotal for a home. People coming right in to the drawing-room bringing a whole deluge of dirt and grime with them and make the room dirty.

The flooring of the entrance should be strong and sturdy enough to endure the ceaseless trampling of feet. The flooring of the entrance area should be made of really strong materials like ceramic, tiles, slate and marble. Sludge and moisture cannot damage flooring made of these materials.

Rugs and mats often heighten the beauty of the house but provided they are placed at the right location. Avoid placing it at the entrance area, as it could become dirty very quickly. Arranging a rug or mat for the drawing-room can also prove to be an unwise choice. So choose them keeping the layout of the entrance area and the drawing-room in mind.

The entrance should give out a very warm and spontaneous vibe to the visitors coming to the house. Ideally a drawing-room should be approximately five feet in width and maybe one foot in length. Planning of the house should always be done keeping space utilization and optimization in mind. Make sure that the planning for the entrance does not take up more floor area than necessary as the other rooms might suffer because of it.

Another very important part of the house that needs proper decoration and space utilization is the drawing-room. The transition from the entrance hall to the drawing-room needs to be smooth and easy. The size, shape and layout of it can vary. Many people think that a drawing-room resembles a yesteryear's waiting space, which was used only on holidays.
Many also think that the sole purpose of a drawing-room is simply a place where the young members of the house study and relax. But a drawing-room is that space of the house, which needs to be lived in or at least inhabited for a long period of time.

In order to acquire a cozy feeling in the drawing-room one needs to get that perfect writing corner with a library and a well-lit recess.

Planners and interior designers of the house should always remember that the drawing-room should not be the main hallway linking the entire house. Every drawing room must have something really unique and different about it. It should be adorned with some nice colors, floor-to-floor carpeting, and wide array of furniture made of wrought iron or wood with some beautiful paintings on the walls. They speak volumes about a man's preference and tastes while giving an insight upon his aesthetic senses.

The drawing-room of the house must be very well lit and ventilated with enough space to accommodate all furniture and other things, which finds a way into it. The resident of the house must keep this in mind while selecting the floor coverings and drapes for the space.

Proper and extensive planning for your house, keeping in mind the drawing-room and the entrance space in mind would stand you in good stead. Every aspect of the drawing-room and the entrance space needs to be really looked into with proper attention to all details.
