Abstract
Between the two world wars Belgrade saw a surge in housing construction, including many rental apartment buildings, so-called 'luxury city palaces'. In addition to richly decorated street facades in the style of academism, eclecticism and Art Deco, architects paid much attention to the design of entrances and entrance halls. The entrance frequently was the main element of the facade even in buildings in a moderate modernist style. Since this aspect of architectural design is scantily documented, this paper seeks to identify its main trends in the 1920s and 1930s and to establish a typology of entrances and entrance halls of residential buildings. It also outlines the parameters and social circumstances that played a role in giving special attention to this element of residential buildings, and examines whether Belgrade architects pursued a sort of total design inspired by European models.

На основу претходно обављеног истраживања, које је обухватило преко стотину стамбених објеката у Београду из међуратног периода, може се извести одређена подела и класификација портала у зависности од карактера самог стамбеног објекта и идентитета инвеститора
Двокрилна врата рађена су у стилу неомедијевализма, техником слаганих греда обједињених гвозденим шаркама
Summary
Between the two world wars Belgrade saw a surge in housing construction, including many rental apartment buildings, socalled ‘luxury city palaces’. Такође постоје примери где је надсветло било посебно наглашено кроз композитну лунету изнад које је смештен грб, као што је случај на стамбеној згради у Улици Коче Капетана 44
