STYLING GUIDE

How to style art above a sofa.

Use proportion, placement and visual weight to make the artwork and seating feel like one considered composition.

CREATE ONE COMPOSITION

Connect the artwork to the furniture below.

The artwork should feel visually related to the sofa rather than floating high above it. Start with the sofa width, then work inward.

  • Use one large piece for quiet impact.
  • Use a pair for symmetry without heaviness.
  • Use a gallery wall for a layered, collected feeling.

A SIMPLE APPROACH

Three steps to get it right.

01

Measure the sofa

Use its full width as the starting proportion.

02

Choose the layout

Select one statement piece, a pair or a collected grouping.

03

Set the height

Keep the composition close enough to feel connected.
