HOW TO CHOOSE THE PERFECT WALL ART
Artwork transforms a house into a home, bringing warmth, personality, and meaning to your living space. The art you choose can set the mood, reflect your unique style, and even promote mental wellness. Your environment profoundly impacts your mood and well-being, making it essential to create a space that looks beautiful and makes you feel comfortable and inspired.
At Revolve Furnishings, Calgary’s premier modern furniture store, we understand that art is more than just decoration—it’s a form of self-expression that tells your story and enriches your environment. Whether you want to evoke calm in your bedroom, add vibrancy to your kitchen, or create a focal point in your living room, we offer a fantastic selection of artwork to help you curate a space that truly feels like home.

HOW TO CHOOSE AND ARRANGE WALL ART
Selecting the right wall art is an art in itself. Here are some tips to help you choose and arrange your pieces:
-
Consider the Room’s Purpose: Choose artwork that complements the room’s function. Calming pieces work well in a bedroom, while vibrant, dynamic art might suit a living room or office.
-
Size: Ensure the size of the artwork is proportionate to the wall and the furniture around it. Larger pieces work best as focal points, while smaller pieces can be grouped for impact.
-
Colour Coordination: Select artwork that complements the room’s colour scheme. This doesn’t mean it has to match perfectly, but it should complement the other colours in the space.
-
Create Interest: Mix and match different types of art, like pairing a canvas print with a metal sculpture or wooden sign, to add depth and texture to your walls.
ARRANGEMENT TIPS
-
When hanging artwork above furniture, aim for it to be about 75% of the width of the furniture piece.
-
Hang a single large piece at eye level or a couple of inches above a sofa or sectional.
-
For multiple pieces, maintain consistent spacing: 2-3 inches for large pieces and 1.5-2.5 inches for smaller ones.
-
Use the rule of thirds to balance artwork in larger spaces, ensuring the arrangement feels intentional and visually pleasing.
