The entrance is one of the most important components of the residential core, which can be said to be the throat area of residential buildings. The feeling given to tourists is equivalent to the first impression between people. According to psychological analysis, the first impression usually occurs in the first seven seconds, which is basically the same as entering the house to check the entrance and adjust the breath. In the west, the porch represents the family's money and has a decisive influence on the good or bad of the house.
The entrance is a buffer zone that enters the living room from the gate, so that participants can calm down and concentrate. At the same time, it is the only way to introduce air into the house, so its layout can directly affect the feng shui of the house.
There are big porches in front of traditional houses in China, but the residential areas in modern cities are generally narrow. If you set up the traditional big porch, you will obviously feel that the space is cramped and it is difficult to move. Therefore, the compromise is to use a glass screen as a partition, which can not only prevent the outside air from rushing directly into the living room from the gate, but also make the narrow porch not too tight.
The interval of the living room entrance should be solid below to prevent leakage and transparent above. So you can use transparent frosted glass or hollow antique shelves.
