welcoming entrance
Our front door opens into the lounge. We are trying to design an extension to our rather narrow porch which we feeel would be more welcoming and keep people dry. We like the idea of poles, with perhaps a slatted wall on the prevaling wind side and a roof in the same longline roofing as the house. We also like the idea of an extended deck from the front door, with steps off to the side to join up with the path, rather than tiles and the timber steps that are there now. This will also direct visitors to our front door as the driveway goes straight to the double garage and the path to the front door is off that.
