The front door is often the focal point of a home exterior – a door is the first thing guests see when they arrive, it's the last thing they contemplate after leaving, it's visited daily by the mail delivery, and it gives potential buyers something to remember the house by. An ordinary home can become "the house with the red door" with nothing more than a simple coat of paint, while a magnificent piece of architecture can rely on a unique door style to tie its exterior design together. Why settle with normal? This post looks at 50 spectacular front doors that boast expressively tailored personality and style.

- Wide doors will give uniqueness
- high doors for high standards
- invisible doors - for style experts
- Always actual minimalism

Unity with the interior, emphasis on size, natural colors
As in interior design in general, in 2022 the emphasis is on practicality, emphasized simplicity and minimalism, elegance and environmental friendliness. Interior doors, in addition to their direct functional purpose, play a significant role in interior design, complementing the style and adding missing elements. An interior door completes the décor of a particular room like the last piece of a puzzle. Therefore, the right choice should perfectly match your style and complement the integrity of each room.
We offer you the most popular interior door trends of 2022. We hope they will impress you, be successfully implemented and create a spectacular interior in your home.
Wide doors for a unique look
Extra wide doors are one of the biggest trends for 2022. Such a door will visually enlarge the space and will surely attract attention, enriching the interior with a noticeable splash of color and texture. The material in this decision is quite secondary, and even the most modest and common colors and textures will look advantageous - only the width of the door can make itself known.
Another advantage of this solution is that it is fairly easy to implement. We have ready-made doors up to 90 cm wide in our warehouse, and individual models up to 95 cm wide can be produced on order. Imagine how great these doors will look in luxury configurations: double hinged, double coupe.
Model: InariHigh doors for high standards
A door with an emphasis on increased height will bring an element of prestige to your apartment, creating a special atmosphere and mood in it. This option is best suited for rooms with low ceilings, as the higher the height of the doors, the higher the walls and ceiling will appear. However, tall doors will suit any room if you choose the color and material that matches the style of the room. Our company manufactures custom-made doors up to 2400 mm high. Some models may be even higher.
Model: Flex 1Invisible doors - for connoisseurs of style
The popularity of invisible doors has been growing for several years, and at first glance it becomes immediately clear why. This is a refined example of minimalism, exciting with its elegance. Invisible doors visually lack the usual platbands, and the canvas is in the same plane with the wall.
As a rule, this door model is painted in the same color as the walls. This option becomes an indispensable solution for rooms where you need to save space or hide the entrance to utility rooms or a bathroom. But taking into account the original design of invisible doors, they can be a full-fledged element of the interior or a special accent in the design. You will make absolutely the right decision if you highlight such a door with a contrasting color and draw additional attention to it.
Belwooddoors stealth doors are supplied primed to finish to give customers the freedom to express their ideas, but can be factory painted in RAL Italian enamel on request.
Models: Smart Invisible Pro, Smart Invisible Reverse ProTimeless minimalism
The clean lines of modern interiors place special demands on doors. The minimalist style involves a flat and even surface of the doors, consisting of one continuous panel. These doors look great both in neutral colors that match the color of the walls, and in bright accent colors.
They differ from invisible ones in that they are installed with architraves, and are not necessarily flush with the wall. And it is already clear that they make up a delightful ensemble with invisible doors that will make the room modern and stylish. In addition, minimalistic doors are easy to maintain, have a long service life, and have increased strength.
Model: Linewood 2Glass top double doors
Glass is the leading door material in 2022. Whereas in the past doors were primarily designed to isolate spaces in a home, today the most successful design projects aim to unify spaces and make the most of natural light.
Glazed doors, especially sliding doors, are an important element in such projects. They can serve both as an undoubted decoration of the interior, and as a means of functional zoning - for example, to separate the living room from the hall. It is clear that the unification of space works within reasonable limits and privacy is also needed. To do this, we offer doors with tinted tempered glass, which gives the perfect combination of aesthetics, privacy and security.
Model: French 8Sliding doors - use space efficiently
This particular type of door was previously used mainly in bathrooms and kitchens. The high practicality of this configuration has made the pencil case doors popular in other rooms. The canvas sliding inside the wall saves space and emphasizes the simplicity of the style. This is a great solution for small spaces where there is not enough space for a swing door.
We would like to remind you that on Belwooddoors entrance doors, on request, you can also install an inner lining of the same door model as the interior doors.
Model: AvestaInterior Door Color Trends 2022
The color of a door plays an important role in design and can greatly enhance an interior and create a comfortable environment. In 2022, there will be a trend towards the use of concise, soothing colors to create an atmosphere of safety and security.
Models: Cremona 1, Cremona 2Neutral colors have been popular for many years: beige, milky, ivory, light gray. They fit perfectly with any style and color combination, but are best suited for classic looks. In addition, these colors perfectly complement other decorative elements, ensuring the integrity of the interior design.
Wenge color modelsConsider choosing dark shades for interior doors. They can be in classic wenge, and in modern graphite or dark gray colors. The first option will balance the contrasts in the room and create a warm homely atmosphere. This is a classic that goes with any style.
Model: Lamira 2Graphite and deep gray will be a great note in an urban high-tech interior. Gray shades can be effectively complemented by an unusual coating structure - for example, imitate plaster or concrete. These doors are guaranteed to impress!
FittingsIn 2022, the undisputed leader is fittings with black or white enamel coating. We especially recommend looking at the black fittings. Adding a black handle to light-colored doors gives the design a deep, rich contrast, creating a simple elegance.

Beautiful interior doors 2022 | TOP-20 Best (55 photos)
For a long time in domestic housing construction, doors in apartments were used only to separate rooms. The beauty of the door leaf was not given any importance. Today, a large number of interior doors are produced for every taste, when choosing which, first of all, their decorative qualities are taken into account. And it is right. Beautiful interior doors 2022 with a fashionable design can transform any interior, emphasize the impeccable taste of the owner of the house, make life in a house or apartment as comfortable as possible.
What types of interior doors will be in demand in 2022? Their color and shape can tell a lot about the character of their owner.
For example, green shades of doors are preferred by calm and friendly people, red doors indicate that the owner is an extrovert, an active person who likes to stand out and command. Wide architraves speak of the respectability of the family, and narrow ones indicate that the owner has a broad outlook.
Popular collections of interior doors 2022 should not be considered separately, but as part of a single style. In a classic interior, it is better to use doors made of natural wood of noble shades. Many choose the color of aged cognac - it looks expensive and elegant.
The choice of doors this year should be approached individually, depending on the color of the floor, furniture, walls, room design. But there are no strict rules here. It is impossible to find doors of any particular color to match everything. Except maybe a white canvas and a box that look great against the background of any walls - from milky and beige to dark gray.
Note! White doors make the interior light and airy, especially if both the walls and window frames are the same color. This technique is often used in a modern, Scandinavian, minamistic style.
It is especially difficult to choose designer interior doors 2022 for a stylish and fashionable interior when all rooms are decorated differently. In this case, the only way out will be to focus on the color of the floor in the hallway, where all these doors go. This will create the integrity of the perception of space.
There is also a non-standard solution - to order veneered doors, which will have different colors on both sides. They will cost more than the regular option, but they will help create the perfect color scheme in every room.
Interior doors 2022 made of natural wood have many shades that can advantageously emphasize the beauty of a particular style. For example, in ethnic and country interiors, warm shades of wood - yellow, reddish-red - will be appropriate.
Classical and baroque dictate that doors be either very dark or very light. Doors with vintage elements are perfect for the Provence style. High-tech requires a laconic design and cool shades.
Beautiful interior doors 2022 look very impressive when there are objects of a suitable tone in the environment. For example, cherry doors will go well with burgundy curtains. A Provencal-style kitchen with purple upholstery on chairs will be decorated with a door of the same color.
Door leafs with inserts of transparent or frosted glass, with artistic painting look good in any interior. Especially beautiful are the doors with colorful stained-glass windows. Various ornaments, drawings and whole compositions can be made from transparent pieces of glass. With appropriate lighting, they create a special cosiness in the room.
Stained-glass windows look best on the doors to the bathroom, kitchen, children's room. They enliven the entire interior, bring zest to it.
If the living room has an antique fireplace, double doors in the same style will do. They can be arched, with silver-plated or gilded filigree, decorated with carvings.
For a children's room, as well as for other rooms with bright furniture of unusual geometric shapes, lacquered plastic doors are suitable, which will look harmonious and stylish in such an interior.

- New collections of interior doors 2022 - amaze with their beauty and texture, so choosing them is a rather difficult task. Here it is necessary to take into account many nuances: design, interior of the apartment, financial opportunities, indoor climate, etc.
The main features that guide the selection of interior doors 2022 :
- design features;
- material of manufacture;
- design and appearance.
Much depends on where exactly the doors will be used. For example, doors to the living room should open very easily and simply, let in a sufficient amount of light, have a convenient and simple design.
The doors to the bedroom should, on the contrary, close tightly, have good sound and noise insulation. Doors to the kitchen should be made of materials that can protect them from smoke, steam and other external factors. They should also close tightly and not allow smells from the kitchen to pass into other rooms.
The choice of interior doors 2022 - depends on the specific features and conditions in which these doors will be used, as well as on the tasks set by their owner.
Design features
As for the design, it all depends on the room itself and on the individual needs of each person. It is possible to distinguish the following main types of doors according to their design:
Swing doors
Swing doors open wide, convenient and easy to use. There are many different interesting design solutions for such models on the market today, so there really is plenty to choose from.
When installing swing doors, make sure that there is enough free space to open them. These types of door designs are perfect for the living room and other rooms. But in a small kitchen or bathroom, this is probably not the right choice.
Sliding doors
Sliding doors are an excellent solution for small rooms where there is no free space to open hinged structures. Sliding doors are a canvas that is mounted on special rails. Depending on the solution, they can be found with two rails or one.
The advantage of sliding type doors is saving space and space, but at the same time, the disadvantage is a loose fit of the leaf and, as a result, a low level of sound insulation.
Folding doors
Due to their design, folding doors resemble an accordion. Like sliding ones, they are perfect for small rooms and spaces. The price of folding doors is much higher than previous models. The high cost, as well as the presence of hinges, which are one of the weakest points in this design, are the main disadvantages of folding doors.
Material. What is better PVC, MDF or eco-veneer
The quality of the doors themselves depends on the material. The most popular today is MDF (fine fraction) or wood, because it is these doors that are the most durable, durable, practical and affordable. Less often you can find tempered glass doors or modern eco-trends made of veneer or propylene.
Doors made of PVC (polyvinyl chloride) are also in great demand among the population today, but in terms of their mechanical, sound-proof and moisture-proof qualities, they are significantly inferior to MDF products. The latter are much more practical, as they are suitable for any type of fittings, they are light in weight, convenient and easy to install, and easy to care for. In addition, there are many different design solutions and color variations for MDF doors on the market.
If sustainability is important, you can invest in veneer doors. Usually they are made of pure wood, and are already covered with veneer on top. Such doors look very nice and, most importantly, they do not contain harmful impurities, therefore they are safe.
Glass doors can also be found in modern interiors. They are made from tempered glass, look very presentable and chic in a home environment. The downside is the high price and much higher requirements for the door frame and opening. In addition, glass interior doors 2022 have a fairly decent weight and dimensions.
