Fine art prints can do more than fill a blank wall — they set the tone for your entire home. Choosing the right wall art for your space involves more than picking something that “looks nice.” With the right approach, you can select pieces that are perfectly proportioned, harmonise with your colour scheme, and reflect your personal style.
1. Start with Scale & Proportion
When choosing art, size matters.
-
Above a sofa or bed, select artwork about two-thirds the width of the furniture for balance.
-
Large statement pieces anchor a room, while a gallery wall of smaller abstract prints can create a curated, collected feel.
2. Consider Colour & Atmosphere
Art should complement or thoughtfully contrast your existing palette.
-
Choose colours that appear in your room’s décor for a cohesive look.
-
For calming spaces like bedrooms, opt for soft tones or boho wall art.
-
For social spaces, try vibrant, energising colours found in mid-century art prints.
3. Let Personal Connection Guide You
Art is deeply personal. Pick pieces that resonate with you, rather than choosing something just to fill space.
-
Limited edition prints tell a unique story and add exclusivity to your collection.
-
Locally produced or bespoke commissions make your home feel more you.
4. Define the Mood of Each Room
Think about the function and energy of the space:
-
Living Room: Conversation-starting statement art.
-
Bedroom: Soothing, minimalist fine art prints.
-
Dining Area: Warm, welcoming designs like botanicals or soft abstracts.
5. Choose the Right Frame
The right frame elevates the art and helps it blend into your décor.
-
Natural wood frames for warmth.
-
Metallic or black frames for modern sophistication.
-
Consider sustainable framing options to match our eco-friendly ethos.
6. Hang with Precision
-
Hang art at eye level (around 57–60 inches from the floor to the centre of the piece).
-
For gallery walls, plan with paper templates before committing to nails.
Avoid Common Mistakes
-
Don’t hang art too small for a large wall — it will feel “lost” in the space.
-
Avoid overly matchy frame sets — mix finishes and styles for a curated look.
Bringing It All Together
Choosing art is about balance — the right size, the right colour, and the right emotional connection. Whether you love the bold energy of our Abstract Collection, the retro charm of Mid-Century Art, or the relaxed vibes of Boho Wall Art, there’s a perfect piece waiting to transform your space.
