Home Decorating Tips

6 Best Reasons For Choosing Wall Art

6 Best Reasons For Choosing Wall Art

Too often wall art is treated as a second thought. Like it is something you do when you can and it’s not that important.  

Wall Art will usually get dealt with last, long after the final coat of paint has dried on the walls and all of the furniture has been artfully arranged. That is if it gets attended to at all.

When chosen thoughtfully, the right wall art can give so much not only to a room but to the character of your home. 

 

6 Best Rasons for choosing wall art

 

Learn the 6 best tips on how to accurately choose pieces that will match with your existing space and give you a home full of character and style.

 

  1. Wall Art Provides An Instant Color Palette

Choosing a colour palette can be one of the most daunting facets of designing the interior of your home. 

The number of varying shades of paint that are available at your local home improvement store can seem absolutely endless.  It can be difficult to narrow down the possibilities into the colours that best fit your vision for your home or room.

Why not leave the paint behind and focus on searching for wall art instead?

Once you find a painting or wall hanging that you absolutely love, you can use that piece as the inspiration for your room’s eventual colour palette.

Your first step is to pick out two or three shades from wall art that you’d like to incorporate into your decor. 

Choose the dominant colour, as well as a few additional shades that you’d like to pull out as accents. 

Look for those colours in the items you use to decorate your room.


  1. It Creates A Focal Point

One of the most basic principles of interior design is that every room needs a focal point or a single design element that will instantly draw the eye into the room and give the viewer a sense of what to expect. 

A great piece of wall art could easily fulfil this position.

Imagine your favourite artwork hanging above the mantle of a fireplace in your living room or standing proudly above the bed in your master suite. 

A creative gallery wall could easily spice up a more traditional dining area or a few hanging tapestries could as a cozy feel to a seating area.

When choosing a piece of wall art to be a focal point for your space, the most important consideration is the size. 

An artwork that is too small will get dwarfed by the surrounding furniture and a piece that is too big will look as though it is spilling over. 

Make sure to take measurements of the wall space available, so you know how much room you have at your disposal.


  1. It Brings A Sense Of Texture

Not all wall art is created equal. 

While some pieces may be two-dimensional paintings or something similar, you should try to find the art in a variety of different mediums to help bring a varying sense of texture into the room.

In addition to paintings and prints, you should consider pieces like sculptures or shadow boxes that can add some depth to the room. 

If your style is more avant-garde, you could also consider doing a small mixed media installation that includes screens and digital art.

These extra bits of texture can help add much needed visual weight to your rooms, which help determine the tone of the room or how it feels. 

Consider that rough textures are more likely to make a room feel intimate and grounded while smooth textures bring a sleeker more detached tone to the room.

6 best reasons for choosing wall art
  1. It Makes The Room Appear Finished

Wall art is that finishing element that can help pull a room together and make it feel complete. 

It is that little extra touch that can take your room from simply looking functional to appearing as if it should grace the pages of an interior design magazine.

The key is to choose a piece of art or another wall hanging that fits in with the decorating style that you’ve already chosen for the room. 

This is about choosing decor that you love and will be happy seeing hang on your wall for many years to come.

This is because when it’s used properly, your wall hangings can provide an excellent framework around which you should be able to plan the rest of the room. 

Wall space is crucial to bringing a room together, and the number of items and what you use will complete the overall look you are going for.


  1. Properly Using Space

If you have a lot of blank space on your walls, you may be wondering how exactly you can fill it properly.

This is where some fun and creative wall art can come into play and really help you make it your own.

One of the best ways to incorporate wall art into your room is by creating some sort of collage with a variety of different paintings and photographs.

By utilizing different sizes and shapes of frames with photos and paintings that can either feature a similar colour palette or incorporate a variety of colours, you can fill the space and bring some excitement and style to the room.


  1. How to Use Color

When selecting the artwork for your walls, one of the most important things to think about is the colour of the art itself.

Whether you are using traditional canvas paintings or simply a variety of different framed photos, there are several choices you have to make when selecting the perfect art.

If you are using traditional paintings or even a combination of paintings and photographs, this is a great way to incorporate colour and pick a similar shade as a popular base that is found throughout each piece of art. 

Whether it is a light blue or a natural green, these colours found in each piece can give you a great colour base to match off of with the rest of your room.

If you are using only framed photographs, this is the perfect place to incorporate a cool looking black and white collage of photos with similar frames.

With black and white matching any of your other decors, it opens up your options for what you utilize throughout the rest of the room.

6 best reasons for choosing wall art

When you are decorating or designing a room it should be a reflection of you and your character, after all, it is your home.

So go out and choose that piece of wall art that will bring life and character to your home
