No Entryway Cabinet: Shoes Lined Up on the Floor

The entrance of a Nordic home. Since taking off shoes upon entering is a common habit, this area has a clear function but a minimalist approach: several pairs of shoes are directly lined up on the floor, neatly placed along the wall, with no shoe cabinet; next to it is a simple wooden bench for sitting to put on and take off shoes, with open shelves underneath for frequently worn shoes; on the wall is a wooden hanging rail, with coats, scarves, and hats hanging. The floor at the entrance is durable tiles or stone, about 1.5 meters deep, after which is light-colored wood flooring, with a flush transition. There is a small mirror on the wall. The overall design is unconcealed, and storage is visible. Avoid: adding a closed, floor-to-ceiling shoe cabinet, hiding all shoes, using ornate entrance furniture, having no change in floor material.

一個北歐住宅的入口。因為進門必須脫鞋是普遍的習慣,這個區域有明確的機能但做法極簡:地上直接排著幾雙鞋,沿牆整齊放置,沒有鞋櫃;旁邊是一張簡單的木長凳可以坐著穿脫,下方是開放的層格放常穿的鞋;牆上是一根木質掛物軌,掛著外套、圍巾與帽子。地面在入口處是耐髒的磁磚或石材,約一米五深,之後才是淺色的木地板,交界處齊平。牆上有一面小鏡子。整體不做遮掩,收納是可見的。避免:加入封閉的頂天鞋櫃、把鞋子全部藏起來、使用華麗的玄關家具、讓地面材質沒有變化。
