entry ideas & inspiration from wynn hotel's encore tower's large scale console vignettes

recently, at west elm in santa monica, i presented the essentials to creating a gracious entry, whether you have a tiny bit of space for a shelf, a chair that doubles as a table, or more room for a console.  before i share a summary of that presentation in a separate post, i'd like to share with you some of my inspiration, this batch of which comes from the encore in vegas, including their luxurious spa.

i love how the wynn design team uses this chunky red rug from natural carpet company for a wall treatment!

this is a great example of a successful colorful arrangement of art and accessories on top of the console.

 try mixing styles like this shiny chrome phone paired with an organic lamp and accessory 

plus dragonflies floating on the wall behind.

found items from nature are fabulous accessories!  

plus, experiment with layering your wall treatment, mirror and accessories and see what works best!
