Here are a few tips to help you get started: Measure the amount of available space and plan around those measurements. Know exactly how much horizontal and vertical wall space you have available and the measurements of the art so you can maximize the area and avoid overcrowding. Include calculations for spacing between pieces. Choose a focal piece of wall art. If you have limited wall space available or want to stick to a minimalist aesthetic, then select a single piece of wall art to serve as a focal point in the room. This piece can be larger in size and the rest of the room’s aesthetic can be designed around it. Don’t forget the lighting. If there is too little or too much light illuminating the wall, your decor may be less visible than it could be. Also be mindful of light fixture and floor lamp placements; these items can obstruct the view of your walls from certain angles. When selecting wall art for your home, take the time to consider the look, feel, and atmosphere you’re trying to create. The right decor can tie an aesthetic together and the wrong piece can cause disharmony.
