Entryway ideas for families who love nature

However you arrange them, KALLSÖ units bring together natural wood, soft grey stain and smart storage that works for the whole family. The storage bench includes a top drawer for small everyday items like keys and sunglasses, and a larger bottom drawer that’s ideal for bags, helmets or sports gear. Paired with a hat rack and a bench with shoe storage, it’s everything you need to create a warm, welcoming family entryway.

Traditionally smart

KALLSÖ hat rack has everything you could ask from a multifunctional hat rack, with its double hooks, clothes rail for hangers, top shelf – and great look! The matching storage bench swallows all the bulky stuff that otherwise tend to end up in a pile on the floor, such as helmets and backpacks. Those things sure are lifesavers, but they’re not always a pretty sight. Last but not least, the bench with shoe storage takes care of both shoes and sleepy soft friends.

A touch of outside inside

Bring a touch of the outdoors into your family entryway with handpicked plants of all sizes. Tiny ones thrive in the sunlit ÅKERBÄR greenhouse, adding fresh green life to your hallway while they grow. Beyond their natural charm, plants create a warm, neutral look that feels welcoming for the whole family. And since hallways are built to handle a bit of mess, they’re the perfect spot for a little indoor gardening. Let your hallway bloom with nature-inspired style!

No need to step gently

Why settle for just one? The more rugs, the better protection for the floor underneath. Place some extra smaller rugs where they are most needed, to make it easy to shake the dirt off them without having to move the bigger rugs underneath every time. It’s practical – but it also looks great!

The luxury of an extra square feet

A few extra square feet usually doesn’t make much difference, but oh boy, what a treasure it is when it’s placed and planned to be a pantry. Just put a sturdy IVAR in there and find out why that storage system has been a favourite for more than 50 years. In no time, you’ll have a place for both recycling, groceries, pet food, the family schedule or whatever you need to hide away behind a nice-looking curtain. On the wall next to it, hooks of different heights suit the belongings of family members of all different heights, too.

Don’t open the wardrobe doors!

Unless, of course, you need to grab something from inside it. The interior of that wardrobe is customized to perfectly fit all those bulky, seasonal or occasionally used things that would make a complete mess of the hallway if they were let loose. Now they’re quietly hiding behind those doors that add to the traditional and neat look of the hallway.
