The light fixture above or beside the entry door often sets the tone for the rest of the home. These foyer designs balance illumination with decor, showcasing paired sconces, statement pendants, lanterns, chandeliers, and candle-style fixtures in a range of welcoming entryway settings.
Gold Double Candle Sconces in a Foyer
White and light pink decor sits on the wood console table next to the entrance door. In the foyer, a light wood mirror is paired with the console, and a gold double candle sconce flanks the mirror.
Gold and Black Sconce Fixture
A floating bench made of light wood sits below the round mirror, whose frame is white. The black front door is next to the bench, and the white sidelight with its white frame is next to the door; above them, the black and gold sconce illuminates the bench.
Black Foyer Chandelier
The vintage rug is red and lies in front of the black door, which is in the entryway. It is next to the white stairway, where a light wood shelf is mounted beside the stairs and a circular mirror with a black frame hangs above the shelf. A black modern chandelier illuminates the entryway.
Tasseled Shades in the Foyer
A floral accent pillow rests on the rustic bench, and a board in a wood frame hangs above it. The wainscoting behind the bench is white with a board-and-batten pattern, while a peg is attached to it. A tasseled light shade is suspended from a brass wall mount.
Twin Sconces in Black and White
A white wall supports both off-white decorative molding and a round mirror in a silver frame. The black modern console table in the foyer is paired with that mirror and contrasts with the white table lamp, whose shade is also white. Black-and-white sconces complement the console table.
Black and White Foyer Fixtures
A white built-in lamp shade hangs from each black foyer sconce fixture. The contemporary console table is paired with beige and gray decor, while a white-and-black ottoman is tucked underneath. The foyer is highlighted by the black sconce fixtures.
Black Pendant for a Modern Home
Off-white armchairs face a black wood sideboard. Tan and white table lamps are paired with the sideboard.
In the foyer, a black arched glass door is illuminated by a black pendant light. Nickel wall lamps are also located in the foyer.

Black Pendant Entryway Lighting
Another pendant should be added to keep the entryway well lit. A wood and black console table holds two white-shaded lamps with a black and white stripe pattern. Above the entrance, a black pendant hangs over the black glass door, which is fitted into the white shiplap wall.

Polished Nickel Candle Sconces
There is a light wood sideboard in the entryway with two frame mirrors and two reindeer decorations on it. The mirrors are white and silver, the decorations are silver and white, and two polished nickel candle sconces sit on either side of the mirrors. A Christmas tree with white ornaments stands beside the sideboard.
Black Foyer Lantern
The black front door has white trim, with a woven bench next to it. A black wall sconce illuminates the bench, while the lantern pendant light illuminates the foyer. A black-framed window sits above the bench.
Two Brass Entryway Sconces
In the high-ceilinged foyer, a brass sconce with a beige shade lights the space. A pair of black candlesticks rests on the wood console table, which sits under a wood-framed mirror. Behind this arrangement, the double doors are made from stained wood and fitted with glass panels.
Two Dark Gray Foyer Lights
White, tan, and green decor sits on the console table. The table is made of dark-stained wood and includes drawers. On the window, a wreath rests on a black frame with a decorative style, and that frame is flanked.
Entryway in Blue Gray
