Inspiration board: A coastal welcome

Create an inviting Lowcountry space with these pro design tips

1. Smile bright

Check your hair or makeup one last time, just as you head out the door with this decorative round mirror.

2. Sit a spell

A place to sit to put on your shoes is ideal for any entryway. Benches on both sides of the console make for symmetrical design and generate balance.

3. Stay grounded

These vinyl floor coverings are ideal for high traffic areas while adding a character to any room.

4. Light it up

A lamp on an entryway table sets a soft and inviting tone. But don’t just go for a boring one. Choose one with texture.
