Not only that but the porch is a great area for extra storage and a perfect place for your guests to leave their shoes! Nevertheless, if your porch lacks any character or colour then it might create the opposite effect and leave your guests with an underwhelming impression of your home. Luckily, there are a few creative ways to create an inviting and memorable porch for your guests!

From making use of lighting to experimenting with colour, here’s how you can make the most of your porch.

Lighting is Key

If your porch looks dark and dingey, then adding colour is one of the best ways to counteract this. If you have an older home, using stained-glass windows can be an effective way to add brightness and colour. Alternatively, adding exterior lighting like hanging lanterns can be a great way of keeping the area brightly lit. Not only will this enhance the appearance of your home, but this ensures that your house is safer by preventing tripping, as well as discouraging burglars from thinking about breaking in. Enlisting the help of a porch installation company means that you’ll be able to make use of lighting entering the house to give off a hospitable and welcoming appearance.

Experiment with Colours

If you want to lift the ambience of your porch, then why not consider painting it in a rich and bold colour? Going for a heritage green could be a great colour to paint the inside of your porch, as this creates a perfect blend between the inside and outside area. Giving your porch door a new lick of paint can be a really great way of conveying a homely and inviting feeling.

Add Storage Space

If you’re not careful the porch area can become cluttered with junk mail and battered umbrellas, whilst also looking like an abandoned shoe shop! One way of ensuring that your porch area is organised at all times is by investing in storage units, allowing you to keep on top of the mess at all times. When guests arrive, this means they won’t have to step over a pile of rubbish just to access your home!
