As the Autumn season draws in, leaves turn brown and fall, and the air becomes crisp and cold, we turn towards the comfort of our home in the shorter days ahead. The hallway or bootroom plays a key role in helping us embrace this season. It is the first thing we see after a long day at work or a chilly autumn walk; therefore, it is essential that we curate a welcoming environment to ensure we feel safe and secure while entering our home. A bootroom is first and foremost a place of functionality, so, we need to integrate practical pieces to make our lives easier while simultaneously creating a warm environment. Whether you have a dedicated bootroom, a hallway from the front door, or simply and area assigned to storing coats and shoes, it is very much possible to maximise the efficiency and atmosphere in these areas.
