Working with entryway wallpaper to spruce up your entrance can be a great way to create a unique style and aesthetics in the space that is seen first when entering your home. The hallway is the first glance visitors see when they first enter your front door or apartment door and nothing makes your guests feel more at home than decorating this section of your interior to perfection.
If you are thinking about picking out a wallpaper design for your hallway walls, makes sure to take a look at the entryway wallpaper ideas in this list. There are so many different styles of wallpaper to pick from and it all depends on the characteristics of your room and personal taste which wallpaper design is the right one for you.
Style your entryway wallpaper with a mixture of contrasting elements, or pair it up with decorations in the same tones to create a modern and modest look. If you are a little hesitant to cover your entire entryway with wallpaper, you can always start with a feature wall, which will add a more subtle style.
Hallway wallpaper with yellow and green tones
The subtle yellow and green tones in this wallpaper design come back in the green bench and the yellow staircase for a wonderful mixture of subtle colors paired up with the elegant white-soaped hardwood floor.
The subtle mirror reflects the rest of the space and breaks up the pattern on the wall ever so slightly. The same effect could be achieved with an entryway photo or gallery wall instead of a mirror.

Foyer wallpaper with a floral design
The flowers on the famous Pimpernel pattern design by William Morris have a traditional effect in this hallway with historic features. The wallpaper design contrasts nicely with the white historic doors and the chequered tile floor and pairs up perfectly with the coat rack, mudroom bench, and vintage chair.
The gold door handles and mailbox contribute to the classy style of this space and the black details in the coat rack come back in the tiles on the floor for a cohesive effect.

Entryway wallpaper with a biophilic design
The dark hallway section in this house is transformed with a bold botanical wallpaper that makes the classic white front door stand out. The vintage coat rack adds a vintage element and I love the mixture of styles between the two spaces.
The sage green wall color in the adjacent room complements perfectly with the green tone in the wallpaper pattern.
An entryway wallpaper is a cherry on top in a hallway with lots of personality
The combination of the bold red chest of drawers, the blue mirror, the patterned rug, and the subtle wallpaper design with a romantic touch gives this hallway an eclectic impression with a welcoming and stylish effect.
A mirror can reflect a space and break up a wallpaper pattern in a nice way. The blue frame of the mirror in this entrance adds a perfect style element, which can be found back in the blue floral detail on the red drawers.

Two entryway wallpaper designs combined in a staircase
When your entryway has stairs, which allows you to see the walls on the second floor, it might be great to take the opportunity to highlight this and make use of two different wallpaper designs to mark the start of the second floor.
At the entrance of this house, modern striped wallpaper is combined with a design that has organic shapes for a more playful effect on the second floor. The combination of the two designs in tones of green creates a cool effect and gives you a sense of depth in the room.
Classic foyer wallpaper in a pale green tone
The beautiful historic details in the doors and original hardwood flooring in this entryway are highlighted by the classic pattern in the wallpaper that’s decorating all the hallway walls. The red framed mirror next to the door contrasts nicely with the pale green tones in the wallpaper, which is great for creating a unique entryway theme.
On every single wall, you can find a functional element or decor pieces, which break up the wallpaper pattern and make the decor feel cozy and inviting.

Hallway wallpaper with a leaf pattern highlights the white doorframes
This entryway connects the different rooms of the gorgeous turn-of-the-century apartment and is the center of the interior. The botanical wallpaper pattern makes the white ceiling and the white door frames stand out in a nice way, while the gold chandelier in the middle of the space adds an elegant touch to the foyer interior.
Since the hallway has a lot of angles, wall surfaces, and doorways, the wallpaper design unites the space together and allows your brain to quickly make sense of the layout, resulting in a calmer and balanced look.

A rustic entryway with subtle beige wallpaper and a storage bench
The concrete mudroom bench, paneled ceiling, distressed front door, and concrete flooring in the entryway have a very rustic and stylish effect in the space, which is finished off with a subtle beige wallpaper design that adds a delicate charm to this mudroom setting.
The wallpaper design accentuates the sloped ceiling and I love the way the straw and leather baskets finish off this rustic look.
An impressive hallway wallpaper and a yellow wardrobe
The traditional wallpaper design enhances the look of this entryway with light floors and a bright white front door. The yellow wardrobe provides the entryway with lots of storage against the walls, which is completed with a coat rack next to it.
The vintage furniture pieces decorate the area next to the front door and finish off the bold pattern on the wall in such an elegant and unique way. On the walls, you can find two mirrors, which are great to reflect some natural light from the other rooms into the hallway.

Two wallpaper designs on each side of an entryway separator
This entryway is divided by a half wall into two sections, each of which is fitted with a bench against the wall. The two foyer sections are each decorated with a different wallpaper design, resulting in an interesting mix of patterns.
One of the wallpapers is inspired by nature, while the other one above the wooden mudroom bench has a geometrical pattern for a more subtle look.
Vintage entryway wallpaper paired up with a DIY storage wall
The classic wallpaper on the wall in this foyer looks like it was kept from the original entryway, as only one section next to the front door has this distressed wallpaper look. The other wall has been fitted with a DIY plywood storage wall which provides storage inside the entrance for shoes and coats.

A dark blue hallway wallpaper paired with different wood tones
With a darker color wallpaper, you can truly transform your hallway space and give it a moody style that makes the white window frames and ceiling stand out in a powerful way. The subtle patterns in blue and white add an extra dimension to this space, which is decorated with potted plants underneath the mudroom bench.
Beige entryway wallpaper pairs up with the pink walls in the adjacent living room
Decorating a hallway with an open floor plan where you can look into the other rooms should be done with the total interior in mind. The elegant wallpaper design used in this entrance pairs perfectly with the pink walls in the adjacent living room and with the white soaped hardwood floor in the apartment.
The gold door handle and the subtle hook to hang coats add beautiful metallic tones to the subtle beige and white floral patterns on the wallpaper.

Entryway wallpaper underneath and above the staircase
A small vintage table fits perfectly underneath the classic white staircase in this entryway. The green floral wallpaper design against the wall brings out the details in the banister of the stairs. The floral pattern on the classic lamp creates a perfect mixture of patterns and makes the style of this entryway unique and characterful.
