Types of wall decor

Framed botanical prints are the classic choice: calm, timeless and easy to match. Woven macrame hangings add soft boho texture above a sofa or bed. Wooden pieces and shelves bring warmth and display space. Mirrors bounce light around and make narrow spaces feel wider. Most homes mix two or three of these types.

Wall decor for every room

In the living room, the wall above the sofa is the focal point - one large piece or a tidy gallery works best. In the bedroom, calm tones above the bed feel restful. Hallways suit pairs of smaller pieces hung in a row. In the dining room, match wood finishes with your table and dining decor so the room feels like one plan.

How to choose the right size and height

Two rules cover most walls. The two-thirds rule: your art should be about two-thirds the width of the furniture below it, usually the sofa. The 57-inch rule: hang the center about 57 inches from the floor (average eye level), leaving 6 to 8 inches above a sofa. On narrow walls, a pair of tall pieces works better than one wide piece.

Styles that suit your home

Boho means natural textures - macrame, rattan, warm wood - softened with textiles and pillows. Modern means clean frames and plenty of empty space. Farmhouse leans on warm wood and botanical prints. Minimalist means one strong piece and nothing else.
