Help me shop for an entry rug please.

I have no interior design plan at this point. This space opens directly into the kitchen and living area. The last people had a round braided rug here.

Have any ideas?

Maybe I should do two? One that runs parallel with door frame and in front of steps and then a larger rectangle to fill the foyer?

I’d either do a large round (not braided, more Persian) or a smaller entry rug for wiping feet. I really really need one at the door for that but your family and friends might not be as savage as mine...

Yes, in our current home, absolutely, we wipe on our entry rug. This house has a garage entrance which I’m hoping becomes the messy entrance and this door is behind a covered porch so I am hoping that I can keep it somewhat cleaner than our current situation.

I really love your house! Such a pretty entry. I would probably do a sizable entry rug and leave it at that for now.

I would put a clean off shoes rug outside the door on the porch and then a pretty, large rectangle entryway rug in the whole area.

What a beautiful foyer!

Maybe a runner would fill the area in front of the door to the steps? Then a coordinating rug to fill the rest? I love the idea of a circular rug but I’ve never been able to figure out quite how to pull it off.

We have had really good luck finding very nice rugs at HomeGoods.

+1. I’m not going to type a real response, because it’s basiacally a “what she said.”

It looks pretty spacious. I'd do a table or a bench w/ a side table, and a runner.
