The Finishing Touch: Choosing Art for your Home

Add personal character to your home through the incorporation of unique art that speaks to you.

Diving into the world of art can be intimidating for many, and often, our designers are asked “What is the right artwork for this room?” Luckily, the answer is quite simple. Art is all about you. The art you collect and choose to display in your home should reflect your style, dreams, and memories, and the art will act as a focal standpoint that helps draw visitors into your rooms. Adding these unique pieces of art that speak to you will always be the perfect finishing touch to your home.

Still feel like a daunting task? Here are some of our tips on how to decorate with art.

Choosing the artwork:
Art reflects your personality, your hopes & dreams, and your most interesting stories. When selecting artwork, look for pieces you are excited to see every day. As we now spend more and more time at home, you want to surround yourself with items that encourage thoughtfulness, creativity, or joy. Surrounding yourself with art you love will help you enjoy being home.

The vendor that we purchase our art from is updates their selection seasonally, ensuring the availability of the latest trends and styles. Variety of sizes and styles by new and acclaimed talents provide our clients with their first choice in quality art. All our work is hand embellished, bringing a realistic painted look to each image. Each piece offers one of a kind representation.

Incorporating art into a room:
Our interior design team in Calgary can help you choose pieces for each room in your home. Whether choosing art as a large focal point in a room or a small piece to complete your built in or home office we can help each room feel inspired and intentional.

What to avoid:
Be careful! A frequent design error that we see people make is choosing art that is too small for their space. If you have a loved piece of art that is too small to be hung individually, try layering it in front of a mirror or adding it to a grouping of art, or a gallery wall.

Art is a chance for self-expression, and there is no better way to share your story than by filling your home with art you love. And remember, at the end of the day, art is only for you and only you must love it.
