A front door or gate is the division
between private and public space plus it's the greeting you
offer the world. The design can make or break the entire look
of a home, public building, office, shop or garden. So
what are Taunton's welcoming entrances to this design facet?
Which ones stand out for you? Here we showcase some of the
beautiful, strange, functional and even lost entrance
treasures of our local town and district.
What they say: The front door allows for a
personal statement, perhaps more than anywhere else on a house
or building. It's an easy way to give pleasure to passers by
and allows for imagination and creativity. As the focal point,
entry doors provide a way to a large range of colors and
styles available. But its more than just about the door
itself. It can be the door frame, the fixtures and fittings.
Doors can also be famous, used in association with those that
live or work there. Look at 10 Downing Street or Wormwood
Scrubs Prison.
