Bold, Bright, and Better Entryway Design Ideas for 2015

Who doesn’t want entry doors on Long Island that are not only strong enough to withstand harsh weather conditions but also make a good first impression? With the continuous advancements made in the home improvement industry, resilient and fine-grade door materials, quality finishes, and efficient yet decorative glass options are now widely available. Here are some highly recommended door projects for 2015:

1. Paint your door with bold and bright colors.
This year, why not try vivid colors for your front door? Below are some good color suggestions:
•    Bright or lemon yellow is said to uplift one’s mood. This color sends a pleasant “hello” to your visitors.
•    Red, on the other hand, creates a bold and striking statement. It complements brick architecture.
•    Indigo, a valiant color, radiates elegance, especially when integrated into a Victorian home.
•    Lime green effectively brings the best out of a simple architectural structure. If you’re not ready to go all out on lime green, you can go for a darker shade like forest green.

Choosing bright or bold colors for your front door can create a warm and welcoming impression. But don’t forget to consider the architectural style of your house.

2. Incorporate accents like a bell, door mat, knob, and knock.
Take advantage of these inexpensive door elements the best you can. You can also make use of large street numbers or other fun decorations to match the color of your door.

3. Add various lighting like pendant lamps.
