You don’t need to be an art expert, or an antique collector to appreciate the beauty and power of a painting, drawing, and/or décor element(s). Having said that, a bit of creativity can go a long way when incorporating a beautiful piece(s) into your home. Of course, you can hang a painting on a wall, or put a plant in a planter and call it a day, we don’t suggest it!
Our experience has shown us that when artwork and décor come together thoughtfully, it can transform a home.
Choosing a Colour Palette
Yes, once again it is about the colour palette. We know how challenging it can be to pick the colour palette for your home. The options seem endless. How about leaving the paint chips behind and zoom in searching for wall art instead?! Yes, pick your wall art piece before your paint colour. It will be much easier to find a painting or wall hanging that you love, you can then use that piece as the inspiration for the rest of your room to set the colour palette you really love.
A Powerful Impact
The piece(s) you choose should enhance the lines and colours throughout your space, or vice versa, this will result in boosting the impact of your artwork as well as the décor. A way to achieve this goal is decorating the space with accent accessories and furniture that reflect the lines of the art piece or by using colours from the painting in furnishings and décor throughout the room. Making the space feel in unison.
Ambiance
As you know, great art evokes powerful emotions and for that reason, the right pieces can have a significant impact on the atmosphere of a space. Depending on the room for example, in a room where you entertain, hanging a unique or bold piece can serve as the perfect conversation-starter. On the other hand, an earthy one can make the space feel tranquil. So, it is important to take this into consideration when picking pieces throughout your home.
Texture
We suggest finding art/elements through a variety of different mediums to help bring a diverse sense of texture into your space. In addition to prints, paintings, you should also consider plants and sculptures that can add depth to the space. The additional textures help add visual weight to your interiors, and as a result, set the mood and feel of the space.
Finally, remember that this process should be fun! By starting out with a plan, and having this blog on hand, you will make the experience significantly less stressful. Best of all you will end up with the ultimate goal: a personable home of your dreams!
