Would you leave this space open??
I have a pretty big foyer that we don't use for "living space" if you know what I mean.
I like the feel of it being open, but at the same time almost everyone who enters my home says "Wow, this is like another room"
Old pic's, but all I have against one wall now is a table and mirror (Pic shown), another small table in the corner next to the French doors and under the window, which you can't see in this pic I have a bench.
Any thoughts?

I'm not sure if I am getting the right visual of the room from these pictures but how about a foyer table with a large area rug underneath.
Great space BTW
Similiar to these pics:

I want your entryway.
I'd probably put a small table and 1 chair in that room, or a chaise lounge to sit on to read a book.
Or, some seating to wait for your teenage children that are returning at 3 am so you can bust them.

table
This site has beautiful things but $$$$, So look on homedecorators.com or jcpenney, etc for similar tables.
Goodluck, that is a great space!!!

They are from random decorationg blogs I found while looking for foyer tables.
Restoration Hardware has one similiar to the 2nd one but its a bit $$
Resto
OR
if you or DH are handy you could make one with 2 demilune tables.

Gorgeous! I would do as the pp said to put the round table and a chandelier, also we did a round (its actually an octogon rug) in the middle creates a nice focal point got one cheap at Marshalls and everyone compliments us on it.

Re: Would you leave this space open??
Agreed with everyone's ideas above!
My other suggestion would have been (and only b/c I don't know the setup of your home and what rooms you have) would be a sitting room or parlor.
Beautiful btw!
