4 Color Drenched Entryways That Show Why This Is the Perfect Space to Go All-In on One Shade

It's no overstatement to say that your entryway sets the tone for your house. As the first thing guests will see upon arrival, there's a certain pressure to convey the style and atmosphere of your home in this typically small space. You'll want to find a way of making an impact without eating into the limited footprint. And this technique offers exactly that.

By now, it's likely you're already familiar with the term color-drenching, but on the off-chance that you're not, color-drenching refers to a painting technique in which one consistent shade is used across the entirety of a room, typically including the ceiling, too. It makes for a striking, all-encompassing finish, wrapping the room in a cocoon-like hug of color. It's the perfect low-effort, high-impact design trick, and nowhere does it work better than in an entryway.
