Matters of the art

August 11, 2009 · Posted in Artists, Bedroom design ideas, Living room design ideas 

Art is great way to add color and interest to any space.  It’s something very personal and can function in a couple ways for your room. 

Large, colorful, or carefully grouped artwork can give a room the focal point to define and create a mood.

Smaller, well chosen items (like the photos above the bed) can draw people in closer, creating intimacy in a space.

To keep from hanging art too high remember these two things…

  • The center of artwork should be at about eye level
  • If hanging a piece above a sofa, the bottom should fall approximately 7″ above the sofa height

How have you used art in your space?
