Tips for Picking Artwork for Your Space
HOW TO CURATE YOUR ARTWORK COLLECTION IN STYLE
It’s easy to get lost while watching period dramas and think, “Wow, I wish I had a drawing room full of oil paintings for my guests to admire.” But the truth is that you can achieve the same effect in modern style! By placing artwork, you’re creating a new point of interest. Do you want people’s eyes directed at your fireplace or at your hallway upon entry? If you want to put artwork against both, remember that colors are a way of controlling the eye’s attention. You’ll likely want to pick artwork that will make your space’s accent colors, patterns, and details really stand out. Choose artwork in all shapes and sizes, but try to avoid picking artwork that will fade too far into the background. However, there are no hard rules. Your art doesn’t have to always be at eye level — it can be over a doorway or hung asymmetrically. Be rebellious and leave your art unframed if you want to. It’s your wall, your canvas.
