You walk in the door and literally fall smack dab into the living room.
Front door opens into wall.
Another option is to put in a barn style door.
Make sure that the door can be fully opened and has a place to swing back against the wall if you want it to be in the open position.
I will probably do nothing until i give up the idea of turning the front porch into an entrance but a window partition could be a lovely solution.
As you walk in the front door swings to the right towards the closet.
You can do that with art or even better a big mural a row of tall lush plants vibrant wall paint or all of the above.
Right in front of you would be a full wall that cannot be removed.
The only problem with a barn door is that it does not seal as well as a regular swinging door.
Even though the door opens in and looks at the couch it s really the best set up to allow for a walk flow to all the doors that go in and out of this room.
My front door opens on a corner of my living room one wall is entirely windows the other wall is the only place to have a living room.
After working through a few more options the best option was to make a little entry way to the left of the front door and define the seating area with a sectional against the largest wall.
You can buy the hardware at a store like lowe s and hang a regular door.
The first one has an entryway a small hallway a nook near the front door or even a sharp turn that separates the front door from the rest of the home.
It measures at about 4 feet from the opening of the door.
This is considered bad feng shui.
Be mindful not to hang a big mirror facing your front door as a mirror facing the door especially the front door will push the chi or universal energy away.
