A bookcase can be used to divide a living area into a dedicated entryway space and the living area beyond, effectively screening the living area from the entryway.

Use a bench to create an entryway setting that is separate from the main living area and to demarcate both visually. As an added plus, buy a bench with inbuilt storage to do double duty, a place to sit while wearing and removing shoes especially convenient for little ones and the elderly.

Use a mirror to create a setting similar to the idea of the bench. A console table topped with a mirror is one option or a large mirror flanked by tall table as shown in the image above both clearly demarcate the space as an entryway.
Interior Design Idea 5 - Paint & Paper
Use a different color of paint or a patterned wall paper to create a visual differentiation between the living area and the entryway area. This is a very cost effective solution and can be used in combination with the bench, mirror and storage ideas listed above!
