Entry And Foyer Lighting

In the entrance or foyer of your home or business, general lighting is essential to welcome guests and visitors, and to provide safety as they enter. This can be accomplished by installing a decorative fixture such as a large pendant or chandelier, and if more light is needed, wall sconces provide illumination closer to the floor. At Accent Lighting in Wichita, we have a wonderful selection of entryway and foyer lighting, and can help you choose the ideal fixtures for your space.

In order to determine which fixtures will be best for your foyer, it’s imperative to know exactly how large the area is. If the entryway is narrow and the ceiling is low, you may be able to provide enough light with a flush or semi-flush fixture, along with one or two sconces. If the foyer is wide and the ceiling very high, a large chandelier or multiple pendants will provide the ambient light, while multiple sconces will light the way to the next area of the home or office. Adding a decorative mirror will help bounce light around the space, and make it seem brighter and more open.

If you’re wanting to update your foyer lighting, then take a few minutes to look through our catalog, or stop by our showroom at 2020 North Woodlawn in Wichita. We’re always excited to meet new people and help them find the lighting design that they’ve been seeking for so long. With a new chandelier, pendant, or sconces, your entryway will not only be properly lit, it will also look amazing and make every guest feel safe and welcome!

Tips to Choose Entry/Foyer Lighting

Consider Scale: The size and scale of the lighting fixture should complement the size of your entryway. Larger fixtures work well in spacious foyers, while smaller fixtures are ideal for more compact spaces.

 

Match Style: Select lighting fixtures that align with the style of your home decor. Whether your home has a traditional, modern, or transitional design aesthetic, choose fixtures that enhance the existing style and create a cohesive look.

 

Layered Lighting: Combine different types of lighting, such as chandeliers, wall sconces, and recessed lights, to create a layered lighting scheme that offers both ambient and task lighting for a comfortable and well-lit entryway.

 

Statement Piece: A striking chandelier or pendant light can serve as a focal point in your entryway, making a bold statement and adding visual interest. Choose a fixture that reflects your personal style and creates a memorable impression.

The complete room

Bring every detail together.

Make the first view count.

Consider what you see when the front door opens. The ceiling height, stairs and surrounding sightlines help guide a lantern, chandelier or ceiling fixture. Bring room dimensions and photos taken from both directions to compare scale.

Give the entry a useful foundation.

A console or accent table, mirror and lamp can make the entry both welcoming and practical. Check door swings and walking clearances before selecting furniture. A mirror can introduce light and depth, while a few home accents add personality.

Connect the inside and outside.

Coordinate the entry’s lighting with porch or exterior fixtures without repeating every shape. Compare finishes and discuss the relevant outdoor ratings. Designer switches and outlets can make the transition feel considered down to the smallest detail.

Choose the hardware in person.

Door hardware is a detail you touch every day. Visit our Wichita store to see our hardware collection, feel the quality and work with a dedicated expert. Hardware is not available to purchase online.

Lighting for the room

Make the first impression feel intentional.

Entry lighting introduces the style of the home. Start with the ceiling height, width of the space and sightline through the front door. A lantern, pendant or chandelier can provide a focal point, while a flush fixture may suit a more compact entry.

Think through the approach and the path.

A beautiful fixture should also support the way people move through the space. Consider adjoining hallways, stairways and the transition to living areas. Wall sconces or other supporting light can complement the central fixture and add depth to the architecture.

Connect the exterior to the interior.

Bring a photo of the front of your home along with interior finish samples. Outdoor lanterns, entry hardware and the foyer fixture do not need to match exactly, but a common design direction can make the arrival feel connected. Confirm fixture proportions and installation access with your installer.

Plan with confidence

Your questions, considered.

What works in a foyer with a low ceiling?

Compare flush and semi-flush fixtures that fit the available clearance. Bring measurements and door-swing details so the selection reflects the actual space.

How do I choose for a tall entry?

Consider the fixture from both inside and outside the home. Ceiling height, mounting access and the scale of windows or stairs all help guide the decision.
