These days, many family homes have both a formal entryway and a family entryway/mudroom that is attached the garage. Since the latter is what we'd be using the most, I'll start there. As previously mentioned, I've fallen head over heals with Sarah Richardson's style of interior design. Sarah recently purchased and designed a beautiful farmhouse in Canada. The design of the mudroom of this farmhouse is right up my alley!
A tumbled marble cobblestone tile in a light beige color was chosen for the floors, similar to this color shown here:
This is a great choice for flooring as it is a similar color to dried mud!
The wall and ceiling paneling is done in pine - imagine the wonderful smell! Sarah used neutral colors for the wall, ceiling, and trim. I was unable to find the swatch for the wall, which is listed on the HGTV website as Raindrop SR1 from Sarah's paint collaboration with Para Paints, so I got as close as possible with Shortbread SR35, which may be too dark. The ceiling is called Vintage SR4, the trim is Snowfall SR29 and the closet doors are Orchard SR53 (note: Sarah says when painting a with red to prime it in grey first!):
For the hanging light, I would choose something a little simpler, more like these:
We have a beautiful church pew that would go in our entry, in place of the white bench Sarah has in hers.
I did manage to capture a few screenshots of the entry doors from this mudroom as well - please forgive the poor quality!

This one leads out to the front of the house.
The second door in Sarah's Farmhouse leads out back.
