The entrance area is the calling card of a home. This is where the first impression is made – for guests as well as for the residents themselves when they come home after a long day. Nevertheless, the hallway is often neglected when furnishing. Yet it is precisely here that a few selected pieces can achieve an impressive effect – for example with a baroque console by Casa Padrino.
The console – elegant and space-saving
Baroque consoles are made for hallways and entrance halls: they are narrow, need little floor space and still offer room for a key bowl, a vase or an elegant table lamp. With their curved legs, gilded details and sometimes fine marble tops, they turn even a narrow period hallway in Pempelfort or Unterbilk into a small reception salon.
The classic ensemble: console, mirror and light
The combination of a console and a baroque mirror hanging above it is a timeless classic. The mirror makes the hallway look bigger and brighter, while the console forms the visual foundation. Baroque wall lights placed on the left and right or two table lamps provide warm, inviting light.
Order with style: baroque coat stands
Coats, umbrellas and bags need their place – especially in the rainy Rhineland. A baroque-style coat stand combines function with elegance and blends harmoniously into the rest of the interior. This keeps the entrance area tidy without sacrificing style.
Tips for small and large entrance areas
- Narrow hallway: A shallow wall console with a large mirror above it creates visual space.
- Spacious entrance hall: A magnificent console with a marble top, flanked by two baroque armchairs, looks like a palace.
- Villa with staircase: A chandelier above the entrance makes for a glittering prelude.
- Need storage? A baroque chest of drawers offers more space than a console and is just as decorative.
Conclusion
With a baroque console, a magnificent mirror and atmospheric light, the entrance area becomes the elegant prelude to the whole house. Discover the baroque consoles and many more baroque furniture pieces by Casa Padrino.
