Have you ever thought that a door to a house, a truly commonplace element, could hide unexpected secrets? Or that through its decor and even placement, it could change the facade and appearance of the whole structure it belongs to?

A door doesn't have to be common and boring, serving only the purpose of protecting those who live behind it or the things stored inside. They can serve a symbolic purpose, each representing either a stage or a passage to different worlds, a peaceful and calm world, far from the noisy everyday life.

An old proverb says that you only have one chance to make a first impression. This also applies to doors – whether they are exterior or interior, being the pathways into the interior of a house or a room. And it is probably the only part of a building with which people will interact the most.

Therefore, an unattractive, old or damaged door will create a contrasting impression with the rest of the decor, no matter how stylish it may be.

So, the next time you enter a house or a museum, restaurant, cinema, theater or church, take a moment to contemplate and appreciate the style of the doors through which you are about to pass.

We invite you to delight your eyes with a set of wonderful doors, photographs collected from all over the world, with amazing doors through colors, styles, paintings, drawings, sculptures, shapes, true works of art.
