The natural focal point of the façade, the entry is often
the site of the most dramatic changes. Entries can be enhanced or redefined in
many ways. Give a boost to an underscaled or awkwardly proportioned entry by
building an awning or extending the roof over the front door. Add some interest
to it with a distinctive profile, such as a peaked or arching overhang.
Two-story homes (and, if handled correctly, some single-story ones) can
accommodate a covered porch. Consider including built-in seating; it's a real
convenience and looks welcoming. If your home has a set of concrete steps at
the door, face them with brick or stone. Don't forget the door itself. Replace
it with a more fashionable style, perhaps complemented with a set of
sidelights.
