The living room is where everyone gathers, so it is the room where art earns its keep. Get it right and the space feels pulled together. The pieces anchor the room, give people something to talk about, and tie your colours into one story. Here is how to style yours.

Anchor the Sofa Wall

The wall above the sofa is the obvious home for your main piece, and it sets the tone for the whole room. Aim for art that runs to about two thirds of the sofa width, whether that is one big work or a pair hung side by side. A grounding piece like Finding Your Way III or the soft movement of Thessy centres the room nicely.

Do Not Go Too Small

Living rooms are big, so small art tends to look lost on the wall. A well sized piece brings presence straight away. An extra large artwork such as Delilah Dancing holds up against a deep sofa and high ceilings, and our size guide walks through the proportions.

Try a Gallery Wall

If one piece feels too safe, a gallery wall gives you a more personal, collected look. Mixing sizes and frames is what gives it that gathered-over-time feel. Our gallery wall guide covers layout, spacing and hanging.

Layer Colour and Texture

The rooms that feel most inviting are layered, so link your art to the space through a shared colour or a bit of texture. Add depth with our textured wall art, a natural note with green wall art, or the easy calm of our coastal wall art. Picking up a colour from your cushions or rug is the quickest way to make it all look deliberate.
