The entrance to a house acts as its visiting card. Its conception has changed enormously over the years, as has its social uses, and the space that was once considered indispensable for receiving guests and keeping the house away form view on first contact - whether out of a desire to preserve privacy or a belief that it was bad taste to put living space on display - has changed to such an extent that it is on the verge of disappearing from many homes. In fact, in many cases the entrance is the axis around which the space will be used to greater advantage and the layout of the various areas will follow a logical order; in contrast, a misguided placement results in an erroneous starting point for a residential project.
