It is the access to the house and the first that a visitor to your home sees. We tell you some keys for its hygiene and organization. Did you know that it is now called a “mudroom”? A functional corner with many decoration options.
For a long time, it was a place of passage and invisible for decoration. But today the entrance to the home or hall is the protagonist of the first view and organization of the house.
It is the transition space from the outside to the inside, and now it has its own name: mudroom. It is so-called because it is identified with country houses or very cold places that require having clothing and accessories on hand to enter and leave the home.
It is nothing more and nothing less than that place we need to leave our shoes, a coat and accessories as soon as we enter the house. And, conversely, have everything on hand to go out.
Today the lobby is no longer a forgotten corner and takes on strategic value, it proved its usefulness and is even the protagonist of the decoration.
