Nowadays, the house types of developers are becoming more and more diverse. In different house types, the layout of the entrance will be different, so there will be different plans in layout design. So when encountering different entrance house types, what options are available when designing? Below, I will introduce some common entrance hall types and corresponding design plans. You can choose one to see which one is suitable for the entrance hall of your home!
. The door opens on the long side (opening to the dining room)
. On the left and right sides of the door are the living room and dining room. The door opens on the long side wall between the living room and the dining room, as follows Picture:
This type of shoe cabinet can be combined with a sideboard or TV cabinet for customization. In this way, the shoe cabinet is attached to the sofa wall/ restaurant background wall, which will not affect the movement of the space, maintain a sense of spacious space, and make the space look modern, generous and practical.
▲Shoe cabinet and sideboard combination, the door is right next to the sideboard.
. The door is opened on the long side (the door is opposite the corner)
The door is opened on the long side of the living room and dining room, but the door is located in the corner, such as Pictured below:
When encountering this type of entrance hall, depending on the inner/outer door opening and the width of the door, the shoe cabinet is usually installed against the wall to the left or right of the door. This can not only achieve practical storage functions, but also ensure a spacious space for movement.
▲The shoe cabinet is installed against the wall behind the door, and the overall flow of movement is spacious.
. The door is opened on the long side (door facing the wall)
The door is opened between the living room and the dining room, but after the door is opened, it is a house type that is close to one wall, as shown below:
This kind of house type is close to the wall as soon as the door is opened. It is a relatively special type of house. The shoe cabinet in this kind of entrance can be placed against the wall opposite the door, and customized cabinets can be built around this wall. In order to achieve a more beautiful effect, a display cabinet can be added to the position facing the door, and decorations can be placed, so that people can see a beautiful picture as soon as they open the door.
▲The door faces a wall, the shoe cabinet is placed against the wall, and a display stand is left in the middle with vases and decorations. The effect is very delicate and elegant.
. The door opens on the side of the short wall (there is a wall/door next to it)
The door opens on the side of the short wall of the guest restaurant, and there is an aisle-style entrance after entering, as shown below:
For an aisle-style entrance like this, the aisle size of the general house type is enough to make a customized shoe cabinet on one side. Generally speaking, after installing the shoe cabinet, the corridor of the entrance must be more than 1 meter, so that it will not be crowded when you go home and enter the door, and the flow and comfort of the movement can be ensured;
▲Aisle-style entrance, shoe cabinets are placed along the aisle.
If the size of the entrance aisle is too small, you have to think of other methods, such as ultra-thin shoe cabinets, demolishing walls to make cabinets, etc.
▲If there is no load-bearing wall next to the entrance aisle, it is also a very good choice to tear down the wall to make cabinets.
. The door is opened on the short wall (directly leading to the hall)
The door is opened on the short side corner, and the door opens directly to the living room balcony, as shown below:
This kind of entrance hall has the door directly facing the balcony. As soon as you enter the door, you can basically see the entire hall. In this case, there are two options for the shoe cabinet arrangement - option 1 is to install it on the wall next to the door, so that the space feels more open; option 2 is to install a shoe cabinet as a partition between the door and the hall, which can make the entrance hall independent and ensure the privacy of the hall.
▲ Make a shoe cabinet between the entrance and living room, which can both store and partition, killing two birds with one stone.
Basically, more than 90% of the entrance halls are included in the 5 house types introduced above. When you encounter these house types, you can refer to the plans I shared!
