<p>Most HDB flats aren't allocated with foyers, but that doesn’t mean you have to live without one. If you want a dedicated area to put on shoes or a transitional space before you enter your home, these functional foyers will provide inspiration on creating one.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><h4><strong>1. Surround with storage</strong></h4><p>The HDB foyer in question definitely reflects a need for storage, with a plethora of built-ins surrounding the front entrance. There’s a shoe cabinet with a handy bi-fold door, overhead cabinets, and curved cupboards that help to create a more welcoming entrance.</p><figure class="image"><img style="aspect-ratio:1080/712;" src="https://d213h1b7vxzzl3.cloudfront.net/editor/3a4db781-de9d-4ab7-8ad4-9750beca4135-blob" width="1080" height="712"></figure><figure class="image"><img style="aspect-ratio:1080/719;" src="https://d213h1b7vxzzl3.cloudfront.net/editor/a039b588-c673-4609-8c57-51de94c45bce-blob" width="1080" height="719"></figure><p>Design: <a href="https://www.renonation.sg/professional/buildbuilt">BuildBuilt</a></p><p>&nbsp;</p><h4><strong>2. Pebbled flooring</strong></h4><p>Choosing a different flooring type for the foyer is a great way to create a unique entrance. I love how the use of pebbled stones combined with slate tiles as a curved “footpath” really brings a sense of the outdoors inside while leading one into the apartment.</p><figure class="image"><img style="aspect-ratio:720/1080;" src="https://d213h1b7vxzzl3.cloudfront.net/editor/6433d6e3-2c3d-42fa-b55c-d8c1a93d9160-blob" width="720" height="1080"></figure><figure class="image"><img style="aspect-ratio:720/1080;" src="https://d213h1b7vxzzl3.cloudfront.net/editor/98ff67f3-9af8-4343-8c45-31dbb7aa740b-blob" width="720" height="1080"></figure><p>Design: <a href="https://www.renonation.sg/professional/lemonfridge-studio">Lemonfridge</a></p><p>&nbsp;</p><h4><strong>3. Lighting division</strong></h4><p>Don't feel like you have to stick to the traditional boxy foyer design. This foyer has an unconventional shape created with hidden lighting and woodgrain tiles.</p><figure class="image"><img style="aspect-ratio:1080/721;" src="https://d213h1b7vxzzl3.cloudfront.net/editor/98e9a8e7-96c4-4796-8425-744fea13310f-blob" width="1080" height="721"></figure><p>Design: <a href="https://www.renonation.sg/professional/jialux-interior">Jialux Interior</a></p><p>&nbsp;</p><h4><strong>4. Cosy does it</strong></h4><p>In this 5-room resale flat, a long walkway near the entrance of the home creates space for a cosy foyer. Next to the built-in bench for putting on shoes, there are nooks for displaying knick-knacks and full-height cabinetry with an open cubby for housing the robot vacuum.</p><figure class="image"><img style="aspect-ratio:1080/720;" src="https://d213h1b7vxzzl3.cloudfront.net/editor/562a1391-7c23-4ca2-a807-0bdafd90dfc8-blob" width="1080" height="720"></figure><figure class="image"><img style="aspect-ratio:720/1080;" src="https://d213h1b7vxzzl3.cloudfront.net/editor/abf7947f-b168-4210-a0cf-955f457e6b21-blob" width="720" height="1080"></figure><p>Design: <a href="https://www.renonation.sg/professional/artspaze">Artspaze</a></p><p>&nbsp;</p><h4><strong>5. Curved Privacy Wall</strong></h4><p>A lot of homeowners in HDBs often put up foyers that also double up as privacy screens, just like in this home. What’s special here is the curved privacy wall, a subtle detail designed to resemble a comforting embrace that sets the tone for the rest of the flat’s curved elements.</p><figure class="image"><img style="aspect-ratio:1080/720;" src="https://d213h1b7vxzzl3.cloudfront.net/editor/95c07085-b436-4e6d-b044-dcf41955abc6-blob" width="1080" height="720"></figure><figure class="image"><img style="aspect-ratio:720/1080;" src="https://d213h1b7vxzzl3.cloudfront.net/editor/3c116858-e125-4dc3-8ac1-86dc7a17ece8-blob" width="720" height="1080"></figure><p>Design: <a href="https://www.renonation.sg/professional/key-concept">Key Concept</a></p><p>&nbsp;</p><h4><strong>6. Long bench</strong></h4><p>The foyer bench runs the entire length of the entryway, extending all the way to the kitchen. It not only helps to open up the space visually (as opposed to having full-height cabinetry) but also offers additional seating for when guests visit.</p><figure class="image"><img style="aspect-ratio:1080/691;" src="https://d213h1b7vxzzl3.cloudfront.net/editor/4abf12fb-7f5b-45ad-baa8-07163b98e0c4-blob" width="1080" height="691"></figure><figure class="image"><img style="aspect-ratio:1080/654;" src="https://d213h1b7vxzzl3.cloudfront.net/editor/8fb2e68f-9b9e-4a75-ab69-69fb36efe641-blob" width="1080" height="654"></figure><p>Design: <a href="https://www.renonation.sg/professional/doubble-interior-associates">Doubble Interior Associates</a>&nbsp;</p><p>&nbsp;</p><blockquote><p>Looking for an interior designer to make your entryway so fabulous that even your neighbours will be jealous?

Colonial charm</strong></h4><p>This charming foyer evokes an old-world charm with walnut tones and black-and-white floor tiles. The suspended shoe cabinet with built-in settee provides storage without visually overwhelming the space. My favourite feature has to be the lovely glass window that helps bring in natural light. It channels old-school textural interest thanks to its frosted arctic pattern.</p><figure class="image"><img style="aspect-ratio:865/1080;" src="https://d213h1b7vxzzl3.cloudfront.net/editor/18c60dd4-6cd6-4629-917c-18382a3073be-blob" width="865" height="1080"></figure><p>Design: <a href="https://www.renonation.sg/professional/indoor-art-studio">Indoor Art Studio</a></p><p>&nbsp;</p><h4><strong>8. Seal, don’t reveal</strong></h4><p>Not a fan of the usual panels that cover up your DB box? Try a bespoke one that can also serve as the back of your shoe bench to keep things concealed. Love the hexagon tiles that extend from the front entrance into the apartment, smoothly blending the foyer with the rest of the home.</p><figure class="image"><img style="aspect-ratio:1080/720;" src="https://d213h1b7vxzzl3.cloudfront.net/editor/f445eb8e-77a0-496d-ab59-839efcbd3d05-blob" width="1080" height="720"></figure><figure class="image"><img style="aspect-ratio:864/1080;" src="https://d213h1b7vxzzl3.cloudfront.net/editor/31c9f159-de40-421a-b287-3c5cf0cc0ddb-blob" width="864" height="1080"></figure><p>Design: <a href="https://www.renonation.sg/professional/homu-homu">Homu Homu</a></p>
