What is the best way to flaunt artworks into your own home?
If you are still quizzing out and puzzled on how to display those artworks in your living room, Houzz shares you tips on how to flaunt those artworks the best way possible. Whether it'll be linear, grid, clustered, or salon-styled, learn all the difference as you check out the tips below.
1. Going for Linear
If you want to make your artworks lined up in one direction, you can try posting it in a linear way. According to the outlet, this type of arrangement works best if your frames or artwork pieces are all in the same size. In addition to this, they also added that "horizontally-lined" artworks will work best for large walls.
Creative Tip: If you don't have framed artworks, try lining up clipboards with textile patterns. My Domaine suggests this cheap way of a "gallery wall" that will look great for your home office.
2. Clustered but not Complicated
Clustering artwork is a liberating approach; you can play along on how you will layer the pieces and it doesn't matter if the pieces go on the same phase or not.
Houzz said that this is ideal for artworks in various sizes and this could maximize the overall look of your wall. But you should still try to balance the look of your wall and not make it overwhelming.
Meanwhile, Country Living suggests that if you are having a hard time displaying your artworks in clustered form, what you can do is try to tell a story with your pieces or "create a view." This will surely make it easier for you to place those pieces.
3. Try it the Old-Fashioned Way with Salon-Style
Salon style based on the article is "truly old-school.Think of 18th-century Academic paintings on display at the Louvre. Salon style is characterized by a floor-to-ceiling wall-to-wall frenzy of artworks hung tightly together."
Although this may be a classic way of flaunting your artworks, nonetheless, salon-style drives in a compelling look for your wall. Try going for variety in terms of color, art and size. Try doing this arrangement in a well-lit room.
