10 Trendy Entryway Items To Spruce Up The Space

First impressions matter, and the first step into your home should be a warm and inviting one

Homes in Singapore are shrinking over time, so every inch of space is more important than ever – be it for a decor piece or multi-functional ideas. So, a home’s entryway might be a rare sight, with many new launch units doing away with this little hallway entirely. In fact soon, you might only see them in 3-bedroom units and up.

10 Trendy Entryway Items To Spruce Up The Space
Umbrella Stand

Despite what many people might think of Singapore as an unbearably hot place, locals here will know that dealing with the heavy rain is a big part of it as well. You’d want a convenient place to store your umbrella before you go out and after you come home as well, so this umbrella stand by Umbra is a solid choice. It’s made of metal and a resin base – which repels moisture and will remain rust free. It’s simple all black look makes it easy to pair with most environments and even the most colourful of umbrellas.

Bench

You could say that this is a 2-in-1 product, as it is really a shoe rack that can double up as a seating bench as well (it’s convenient to sit and put on your socks/shoes. It’s 1 metre length is good for small spaces, and its clean Scandinavian-inspired design means that it can slot easily into most homes. Don’t underestimate its small size too, it can hold up to 115 kg in weight!

Umbra
Clothes Rack

I’ll be upfront here to say that a clothes rack for an entryway seems unorthodox and not something most people would consider. It is a much better fit for countries that have to deal with winter, as you’d need a place to hang your coat before going into the house. But, for those who have to wear a suit to work every day – this could make sense as well – as you can just grab it and go. It’s not just clothes that you can hang here, your collection of caps/hats or even accessories can be displayed here too.

Andersen Furniture
Entryway Hook

While the previous entry may seem a bit over the top for some, I think this entryway hook may be a better bet for most other people. Its small size means it can fit in most spaces, and it has various hooks and spaces to hang bags, purses, and your car keys too. The best part? The front features a small mirror which can come in handy to check your appearance quickly before you leave the house.

Umbra
Side Table

For those who’d rather not drill a hole to fit in a rack or hook, there’s always the option for a side table – if your entryway has the space for it. This HAY bowler side table is a brilliant piece for the minimalist, with its smooth powder coated steel and solid granite base to provide stability. The hardest part here would be choosing a colour – I really like all the shades of colour it comes in!

Hay
Mirror

This mirror by ferm living is named the pond mirror – it’s pretty clear once you look at it why it was named as such. Mirrors are a trick in the playbook of any designer to make a space appear bigger, so hanging one at the entryway of your home isn’t a bad idea at all.

Mini Greenhouse

If you want to truly do something different to welcome you or your guest to your home each time, this mini greenhouse by Design House Stockholm could do the trick. It’s made out of a solid ash frame, with tempered safety glass forming the transparent panels. For sure, having plants will mean you need to take more care, but the added greenery will make a difference in making a home appear more homely too.

Design House Stockholm
Astro Tray

For those who love to keep their home neat and tidy but yet want to put in the least amount of work possible, having these Astro Trays by Normann Copenhagen will do the job. Similar to the functionality of a wall hook, you could use this as a space to store the knick knacks from your pockets each time you come home – loose change, notes, and your car keys.

Normann Copenhagen
Wall Hook

If you are looking for a wall hook that is less complicated than the one occupied by the fourth entry on this list, this North Nest wall hook could be a suitable choice. The “nest” holder is useful to store stuff like keys, coins, and cards, while the hook is good enough for a coat or tie. It’s made out of aluminium and steel, and if you are a fan of the black, it could also be a good compliment with the black umbrella stand by Umbra.
