9. Maine Appeal
Costal charm abounds in this Maine mudroom by John Buckley Architecture & Design. Combining white painted wood planks on the walls with circular black slate floor tiles creates stylish contrasts. Taupe painted beadboard on the ceiling adds a warm touch and visual texture. And a mounted oar on the wall completes the seaside feel.

6. Blue-and-Brass Beauty
Vivid blue built-in cabinets (Commodore by Sherwin-Williams) and energetic blue-and-tan dragon-theme wallpaper (Imperial Dragon by Thibaut) make this Atlanta mudroom by Copper Sky Design + Remodel come alive.

5. Cottage Charmer
This Massachusetts entry by Henley Design exudes cottage-style charm. A spindle-back bench provides a rustic seat, and woven baskets tucked underneath offer storage. Wainscoting painted in Farrow & Ball’s Light Blue creates an inviting atmosphere, while a striped contemporary rug keeps the look grounded in the present.

4. Modern Warmth
Vertical slatted wood doors set a striking tone in this Denver entry by Forum Phi. Back-and-white abstract art stands out against gallery-white walls. And a pair of midcentury-style chairs in tan leather complements the warm wood tones and fits the modern design scheme.

3. Storage Superstar
A floor-to-ceiling built-in with cabinets, shelves, cubbies, coat hooks and a bench takes care of storage needs in this Minnesota entry by Jkath Design Build + Reinvent. Note the black leather pulls on the cabinet doors that have a softer, more tactile feel than metal would.
Engineered white oak flooring by Unique Wood Floors runs from the entry into the adjacent kitchen and living room.

2. Floating Fashion
A floating bench and wall-mounted cabinet keep this Denver entryway by Ashley Campbell Interior Design feeling light and airy. A slatted wood accent wall behind the barely there console adds texture, as do the rug, woven storage basket and pillows. A large round mirror above the console table reflects natural light coming in from the windows.

1. Small but Mighty
The most-saved entry of the year is this compact but hardworking French entryway by Mathilde Design. A low-slung custom cabinet doubles as a bench. A second cabinet has a shelf and a tall open unit with storage cubbies. Wood slats add a dash of visual texture, while the cabinet’s dark color brings some dramatic interest. A wall-mounted mirror in a wood frame that complements the storage pieces completes this high-functioning area.

Plenty of storage can be found in this ruggedly good-looking Los Angeles mudroom by Timberwolf Construction. Wall-to-wall built-ins painted light gray provide organization. Multicolored bricks laid in a herringbone pattern warm up the space. And a Dutch door adds a bold splash of red — the cherry on top.
