Artwork Groupings

Is your room lacking drama? Everytime you walk into your living room, dining room, bedroom (...you get the point) you feel like something is missing but you can't quite put your finger on it? Ask yourself if the room has a true focal point.

If you want to create instant drama in any space a good way to acheive this is by adding a grouping of artwork. This look, whether acheived in nuetrals or vibrant colors, adds an instant focal point. Think outside the box. Don't be afraid to mix art with objects. If you're placing this grouping over a piece of furniture or a fireplace, don't forget to incorporate the items on the table top or mantel in the overall design.

Remember: Have fun with it! Hang a few pieces and the look is complete, or continuously add to it to create an evolving design.

The epitime of drama, this artwork MAKES the room. Without it, it would be an overly matchy, louis xvi style parlor

All the white in this room really grounds the space, and makes the artwork grouping speak for itself

Obviously, the paint has a big impact in this room, but the artwork placed inside each stripe sets it off

I love this. Part inspiration board, part room decor--this proves groupings can be fun

All about balance, this display is rich in history

Clean lines and neutral decor. This grouping is the focal point in a very subtle way

Simply because one is not enough...

I love how Sarah incorporated the sconce in her grouping

This room is soft and comforting, yet there are 12 pieces of artwork over the sofa, point proven

I love how the panel interupts the grouping, yet it still flows

With 9 pieces grouped together, it acts as one large piece AND adds a whole lot of drama over this night stand

Clean and contemporary, but with the addition of one carved gold frame on top it suddenly becomes eclectic

enough said.
