My staircase is inside the front door and it is impossible to put a screen up. When facing the staircase, the left side is open with the stairs going up. There is a wall on the right side, and a staircase going down next to the wall. Would a mirror help and where would be the best place to put a mirror? On the top of the staircase or on the wall that would be behind the door, when it is open?

In my opinion, it is best not to place a mirror as it is not meant to "neutralise" this.
A mirror is used for other situations and if used, it should usually be looked at with a perspective of the house either after having analysed the house by a FS practitioner or using Flying Star analysis in conjunction with Shapes and Form. For shapes and form, we look at how yin or dark this area is ...
Warmest Regards,
