Modern Entryway Reveal
We made it! Are you ready for another beautiful room reveal?! I cannot believe that we finished this space in 6 weeks! This was the first One Room Challenge where I was really unsure if we were going to get it all done in time! But a few late nights and somehow we pulled it all together. Our modern entryway is a dream come true for us! I can't believe the transformation... but just to remind you... this is where we started....

Do you remember this space?! I barely recognize it and I lived in it! Let me introduce you to our new modern entryway. Starting with the beautiful new black front door!
Last week we shared all about our front door installation, which was waaay easier than I thought it would be! The new modern door makes such a beautiful statement when you approach the home (I'll be sharing some outdoor pics in an upcoming post!).
To the side of the front door, we completely revamped the existing closet and turned it into more of a mudroom!
We tiled the bench with a beautiful dark basalt tile, added storage drawers underneath, and added new floating shelves and hooks.
It's a thousand times more inviting now! Saying, "come in... sit down.. take your shoes off on this comfy bench!" lol.
The artwork on the side is something I DIY'd quickly to fill the space and they look perfect!
The beautiful wood and concrete planter is filled with real dirt, but faux greenery, lol. You know how bad I am at keeping plants alive, right?!
And the flooring!!! Guys! I have dreamed about having beautiful herringbone floors for ages now and we finally got it done! We used this faux wood tile and I'm in LOVE!
Plus we have heated floors in there now! My feet are going to thank me when our freezing cold Canadian winters hit!
You can't see the heated floors underneath, but you can see the awesome thermostat that also shows me the weather on the way out the door :)
The other side of the stunning black front door is just as magical...
Remember the wood feature wall we were planning for our modern entryway? We got it built, puttied, sanded, and painted (thanks to my friend!) all in the last week!
And how good does that faux wood tile look against the green wall?!
A big round mirror and some stylish decor pieces really finished off this space beautifully. Not to mention the narrow console table that we've had for ages! We finally gave that piece a makeover and found it a permanent home.
The black hanging planters are also filled with faux greenery (my favourite kind!), in the form of little ferns.
I hope you love the space as much as we do! This One Room Challenge was a real challenge, lol. But we're more than thrilled with our new modern entryway!

What!!! This is breathtaking! Your feature wall is amazing, and I love the moody feeling of the dark walls, offset by all that natural light. Just incredible!
I'm so in love with your feature wall and to top it you actually made it happen a week-wow!!!!!
I followed your post on the bench and loved every step of it , the door is stunning- I am in love with the entire space !! You absolutely nailed it to perfection !!
That wall panelling is VERY cool! Love the green with the black accents too.
Is it weird to say that front door is sexy? Those wood shelves aren't bad either...

I love how modern your entry is now! That door is gorgeous! But that floor!! And the hands are so fun!
Your entry is gorgeous! It's hard to pick a favorite part but I'd have to go with that beautiful heated floor! Congrats on a job well done!
You did a fabulous job! It is so unique, and that black bench area is the bomb.com!
I love this so much! You did an outstanding job on every detail. I love how you took what wasn't working well and made it not only function but functions fabulously!
Ahhh such a good transformation and overall design aesthetic in general! There so many things I love about this that I’m just gonna have to list them : The awesome front door, The herringbone floor tile, The Black metal wire light fixture (we have a similar one in our kitchen ), The feature wall, that mounted hand (!!!), The shoe storage , The wall planters- I could go on forever! I think what I’m trying to say is I’d like to move into your entryway- just give me the word and I’ll be over with my suitcases in a few hours
How hard was it to instal the herringbone tiles? I love that look!! Where is the hand from. Love it!! I just saw that door in orange at Home Depot and LOVED it!!!
The herringbone was a bit of work - it was more complicated than we thought it would be, but if you've done tile work, you can tackle it! We hope to share a tutorial sometime soon :) There is a link to the hand in the bottom of the post under, "Shop this post"! I love that hand too! Isn't the door stunning?? I'm so glad we bought that one!
Beautifully done! Wondering what the green paint colour is. Thanks!
It’s called Black Bamboo by Behr! It’s a beautiful deep green! :)
what name is this door! i can't find it anywhere on the home depot website.
It's a Masonite Door, but we had to specially order it. If you go in and talk to the specialists in that department, they can help you find it quickly!
Can anyone explain me about One Room Challenge.
It's a challenge hosted online to completely transform a space in six weeks :)
