Interior Doors
Would you mix different styles in a small house?..
Thanks

jan74 I'm going to, for functionality - and bring it together by painting them all white.

I'm gonna have "normal" doors, an exposed hardware sliding door, and a folds-in-the-middle door (the latter one was already installed).

Something else I'm doing for visual unity is I'm keeping the door trim the same in all of them (except for that sliding door that doesn't have trim around it), and putting the same color knobs in all of them (can't be same style as the folding door and the sliding door have "pulls" and not knobs exactly...)

hadarazon Thank you! sound beautiful. What about bedrooms doors? I have all bedroom and bathrooms on one side of the house, I already have different entry door, and a different door for the laundry room you can see from the living area. Just not sure if mixing ALL doors in the house will look weird...

jan74 The two "weird" doors are going in my children's bedrooms - sliding for the boy, and folding for the girls. They also face one another directly... and are rather close to a "normal" bathroom door.

My apartment is an odd layout cause upstairs it is a loft area, pool, and laundry, and upstairs I have yet another style of doors - aluminum-framed french doors that match the windows, rather than the downstairs doors.

Marie Hebson's interiorsBYDESIGN Inc. Absolutely you can - its more of a Boho Chic look, you can push it more industrial if you have all the doors weather worn - I'd stay with same baseboards and window/door trim though, you need some continuity for flow and harmony -

Below are two designs I did to show same fireplace - two completely different looks- you can get either of these looks integrating different doors throughout - very unique!
